Interesting findings when testing and releasing:

  • Mismatch between shooting wall and mirror screen.

  • Hard to remember weapons and recoil patterns altogether, which made us see the need for shooting records.

  • Changing loadouts is something tedious which also created a need to look into creating a shortcut for accessories..

  • The interaction areas were too small, grew area of interaction by having a bigger space.

  • In the tests we also saw the opportunity to add it while in matchmaking to promote its warm up use.

All in all, it was well received and a needed feature.
