Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Sandbox Mode

For those playing competitive, practice makes perfect. This includes 1v1 ladder, scrimming with your team, or just build experimenting. That is why the lack of a dedicated sandbox/practice mode is very frustrating. The intended purpose of this mode is to modify/refresh existing game without having to disconnect, re-create a lobby, and load everything back in. A command (maybe via a dev console?) could reset all generators/pallets/gens and resurrect dead survivors. Builds would remain unchanged (but an alternative is allowing a limited subset of perks/addons to be dynamically equipped). Doing this on the fly removes the time sink of reloading all game assets to start a new game. This would be invaluable to those trying to practice and allows for much more effective time use.
