Players who played in the same team as the banned user but not in a party with them will not have their Elo impacted.Players who formed a party with the banned users will have any unfairly gained Elo reverted and removed for any games won in that party.Players who lost matches (and Elo) against the banned player, will receive back the Elo unfairly lost in those matches.In that blog post, we also mentioned that we’d be reverting Elo gained through these abusive behaviours like Smurfing and Boosting.įrom today, bans for smurfing will trigger an Elo reversion mechanic that will be applied to the last 50 matches played by the banned user where players have unfairly won or lost Elo: In April, we shared some information about product updates to tackle toxic and abusive behaviour on FACEIT. Players can queue as duos or (if your friend is busy) as solos.
Similarly to Manual Clips, all the highlights automatically recorded can be managed by accessing your personal library on the FACEIT app.īoth Manual and Automatic Clips can be enabled by accessing the new Highlight Studio (top right icon) on your desktop FACEIT app. While you focus on the game, this system will ensure that all your best plays will never be lost, all without requiring any manual action from you. Automatic Clips - PREMIUMįor Premium users, FACEIT Highlights features a further innovative Automatic Clip system that is able to automatically recognise, capture and save your best moments while you are playing a FACEIT match. We made multiple attempts to solve those compatibility issues but unfortunately, the conversations with other third parties have been slow/unresponsive and therefore we decided to provide the community with this alternative solution to everyone for free. Our main goal with this feature is to provide an alternative solution to solve a historical pain point players have been experiencing by playing on FACEIT, related to some compatibility issues between our Anticheat app and some third party video clip tools (ShadowPlay especially). The system works similarly to other Video Clipping products.
Manual Clips - FREEīy running our desktop app, players can use the Manual Clip feature to capture and save Highlights of their best game plays during a FACEIT match by simply pressing a hotkey of choice.Īll Manual clips are saved and stored locally on your PC and shown in your personal gallery on the FACEIT app from where it is possible to edit, delete and publish all your video Highlights.
After several months of development and testing, today we’re releasing Highlights in full, with two approaches to capturing clips: a manual clipping system which is available for everyone for free and an automated clips engine which is available for all the Premium players. FACEIT Highlights is a brand new system that has been designed to capture, save and share video clips of your best gaming moments during a FACEIT match.
