Smite 2 Live Beta 5 - Changelog

By: FAERayo January 28, 2025

January has been an incredible month and exceeded all the previsions we had.

We have multiplied x10 our active users compared to previous months thanks to the release of f2p and your incredible word of mouth help.

Let's go with the changes during this month.

  • Optimization:
    • One of the major threats during this month has been the optimization and bad performance of the site. During our development we had few users so it made that a lot of bad performance wasn't noticed. Once we went x2, x3 and x4 of traffic we quickly saw we needed to make the site better.
    • We optimized all our site by 30-50% speed times and 1/10 of load in our server, which made the site from being used poorly to almost instant load times and quick navigation.
    • We optimized tooltips, images and cache to make your browsing better and lighter.
  • Fixes:
    • Fixed lagged scrolling when builds were being shown in any page
    • Added Multi potion and wards to items
    • Fixed Aspects not being shown correctly
    • Fixed abilities % not being displayed correctly
    • Fixed guides not being able to be saved with consumables at 0 quantity
    • Added terms of use, contact and about us pages
  • Items
    • We added god's items to our items list: Aladdin's lamp, Baron's brew, Vulcan Mods and Mulan Banner. From now on we will keep this trending.
  • [New Feature] Aspects
    • We implemented Aspects in our features, which includes: Add aspects to guides, show aspects in god's page and builds.
    • You can view the ability changes in god's page by activating the aspect.
  • [New Feature] Statistics
    • We added statistics in 3 pages
    • 1. Gods Statistics: When viewing the gods page, you will find a table with some god stats from analyzed builds
    • 2. Items Statistics: Same as gods but with items
    • 3. Statistics Dashboard: Inside tools tab you will find an statistics page which offers some graphics and data from different game modes.
    • In future updates we plane to increase these features by offering more stats and custom analysis.
  • [New Feature] Featured content
    • We added featured content which was greatly accepted. Tierlist views were highly increased thanks to this as you liked the direct access to them.
    • We added featured content too in Home.
  • Improvements:
    • Our pro build features has been the most requested one and we dedicated some time to improve your experience:
      • Added filters to make your life easier
      • Added more players
      • Filtered the player search by only players with builds in specific god
      • Added a specific view for player builds so you can check only that player with all gods displayed
      • Displayed better the builds
      • Added talent to builds
      • Added KDA
      • Improved the buttons
      • Added pro, ex-pro and creator tags
      • Added match analysis button (To be developed soon)
    • Website Maintenance
      • Some of you probably saw a warning about maintenance. We previously launched updates with hidden notice which made the users to get website is down error. Now when we are deploying updates we trigger a maintenance notice so you can expect a small downtime without getting in panic!
  • Known Bugs:
    • Statistics dashboard are broken in Gods/Items page
    • Some abilities have stats which are 0, they should be ignored and not displayed.
    • Remember we have a giveaway open for those that report a bug in our discord server, you have until end of January approximately.
  • Coming Soon / Future features
    • [Planned with priority] Pro player profiles: We plan on adding player profiles to display matches, statistics and more!
    • [Work in Progress] Community god concepts are in the work. Create your own god concepts with our god builder and get it displayed the same way existing gods are displayed. It will probably be released 30 Dec - 5 January week.
    • [Work in Progress] To be revealed game: We can't really spoil much, but we're working in a mini game that will make your queue waiting times more peaceful :)
      • Our estimation is half-end January -> We have no estimated time now, but we hope we can dedicate some time in february.
    • [Planned]  Apply builds to gods: We know this feature is highly requested, but due to the complexity of multiple systems, stats and abilities it's hard to calculate all the data precisely. Stacks, passives, etc. We have this feature planned, but it's still being designed. We don't have any estimated time for now.
    • [Planned] Damage Calculator: Once we have the system to apply builds, we will then be able to work into this.
    • With this all implemented, we then aim to our 1.0 Release

Thanks everyone who has been using the site and specially those that provide feedback.

We grew together!
