HEX Update – Upcoming Features

Hi HEXers! We’re almost done with May and we’re trucking along with the HEX Beta.

Next Patch

The next patch is coming soon and it will mostly consist of “quality of life” improvements and bug fixes. We’ve updated some text to better communicate rewards both in draft and on the Wheels of Fate. We’ve also updated some cards to better show their effects when applied to troops. You’ll see some bigger fixes like solving the display bug problem with recently purchased products.

We also have people working on features that you’ll see in future future patches. Yes, double future. Sometime in the future. One of these is the Auction House that you can see below.





This is a rough version, may not reflect the final version yadda yadda. The Chark and our QA team are banging on this thing, trying to knock out all the bugs. You can see cards listed in both gold and platinum, and Chark can track his bids with the “My Bids” tab.

As far as other features go, among them is the tutorial. Out of client, we’re also working on an updated How to Play video, Deck Building video, and How to Draft video.

Streamer Giveaways

Thank you to everyone who’s streaming on Twitch or creating YouTube videos to help our players see HEX and improve their game. A few weeks ago, we asked that you email HEXMedia@HEXTCG.com to tell us about your stream and give us some links. We’ll be sending out some gifts for you next week to pass out to your fans. If you’re not streaming, you’ll want to start watching in order to potentially win some beta keys and more! How can you find your fellow players streaming HEX? Follow @HEXTCG on Twitter. That account will retweet fans who are streaming. You can also check out the HEX media megathread where many content creators are linked.

Swiss Tournaments

Many of you have asked about Swiss tournaments. For those of you not in the know, Swiss means that you play multiple rounds within a tournament and you’re paired against people with similar records to your own. So, no single elimination. Some players prefer this because they are guaranteed to play 3 matches with their deck, and players receive 1 booster pack per win. You’ll see Swiss Booster Draft coming in the next patch. We still have a few corner cases where pairings are a little buggy, and we’ll continue to work on those.

That’s all from us this week. Thanks again for your continued support of HEX. Please leave any questions or comments in the forums linked below, and don’t forget to Like us on Facebook, Follow us on Twitch, register on our forums, and Follow us on Twitter.
