Those into the PvP scene in H1Z1 might want to check out King of the Kill this weekend. Daybreak announced that its activated a new server ruleset, Skirmishes, that can be experienced right now.
Skirmishes are a twist on the popular Battle Royale mode that introduces different rules and restrictions for each game. The studio said that the first skirmish is a small arms ruleset, which means no rifles or shotguns, just pistols, crossbows, and fists of desperation. “This will continue each weekend through May and then we will aim to set up a new skirmish regularly after that,” Daybreak said.
The producer’s letter mentioned that a balance change was being made to scoped weapons and that the game will soon force all players to start matches at the same time regardless of how fast or slow they load into a bout.
