- Offline practice mode so you don’t need wifi or 3G connection to practice / play.

- ARMS balance system. This will make every single match fair. Lets say Player 1 has 10 upgrades and Player 2 has 3 upgrades. Our system will auto balance Player 1 down to the first 3 upgrades to match Player 2.

- Stability update!

- Network connectivity updated to fix connectivity issues some have been having.
