Key Takeaways
- Performance & Stability Issues: The developers acknowledged that recent updates have caused frame drops, freezes, audio glitches, and crashes.

Dev Roadmap & Approach

- Ongoing: Transparency — expect more frequent State of the Game posts and clear communication channels.
Community Reaction Points
- Good to see ownership of past issues and a reset on communication.
- The “mid-October-ish” window indicates they’re aiming soon, but leaving room for testing — it could slip if needed.
- Everyone’s hoping for noticeable FPS and stability gains — especially PC players who’ve been struggling since recent patches.
- Developers seem to be listening across Steam, Discord, and Reddit — please keep feedback constructive and detailed.
