Formicide Patch Notes — July 16, 2017
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
This is a minor hotfix to resolve a quick-to-fix crash that was able to be diagnosed and fixed as a result of the crash reporter that was added in the previous patch. It also resolves a couple gameplay issues that crept into the previous patch.

General Bug Fixes
- Fixed a client crash that could occur when transitioning from the loading screen into the game when joining a game already in progress. This was the single biggest offender of crashes that have been submitted so far through the crash reporter.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the "warning blare" to be played when the enemy team has capured all of the beacons on the map.
Class Fixes
- Fixed a bug that allowed the Cannoner to use his Mortar ult extremely quickly.
- Fixed a bug that could allow the Hunter to "steal" health even when not hitting any enemies.
UI Updates
- Updated the tutorial window to reflect the point capping change made in the previous patch: when controlling all 3 beacons, your team will be getting 2 points per tick.
