Description
Time Scale, sometimes referred to as Timescale, is a feature that allows for game matches to be slowed down and sped up. Currently, this is only possible by using Time Scale Tickets, in which each activation of the feature requires one
Time Scale Ticket. Each
Time Scale Ticket can only be used in a single match. Time Scale can currently only be activated in solo matches in all modes except Hardcore and Tutorial.
There are five modes available, the first is 0x, which pauses the match entirely, preventing anything from moving, which can be useful to allow more time to react to something. Next is 0.5x, which slows down time by half, which also gives more time to react to something, while not stopping the game completely. The third is 1x, which is set by default. This is the default speed at which the game runs. Fourth is 1.5x, which makes the match faster by 50%, allowing matches to take less time to complete. The final mode is 2x, which makes the match twice as fast, making matches even faster. Background music is not affected by Time Scale.
