Greetings, friends and fellow Necromunda: Underhive Wars community members -

We hope that this message finds you well.

It is with great pleasure that we’re back today with a fifth major Necromunda: Underhive Wars update, Patch 1.4.4.2, which notably adds a brand new Fighter career, the Servo-Tech - free for all owners of the game and available to Gangs from all 5 playable Houses!

Before moving on to the 1.4.4.2 patch notes (which are, as always, listed at the end of this post), let’s dive in and see how this new playable Fighter career will shake up the underhive’s brutal gang warfare dynamics!



Capable of hacking into dome subsystems, Servo-Techs use gadgets and their versatile Servo-skull to manipulate the battlefield from a safe distance.

Fighters from this sixth playable career have entered the underhive - ready to bolster the ganger forces of Houses Goliath, Orlock, Escher, Van Saar and Cawdor! Armed with devastating Shock Whips and Manglers, as well as the dreaded Voltaic Pistol and Needle guns (in both Pistol and Rifle variants), Servo-Techs are formidable foes capable of occupying both offensive and support roles on the battlefield.

The signature Servo-skull that constantly hovers around these fighters plays a big part in their fighting capabilities, acting as a flying servitor that provides Servo-Techs with the ability to reach both friends and foes across different elevation levels, through impassable chasms, and even around walls - with some of its abilities using a special type of targeting (and aerial maneuverability) that can even bypass the need for direct line-of-sight!

As well as shaking up existing crew synergies, battlefield tactics and strategies with their 21 brand new skills and 5 new weapons, these tech-savvy fighters also bring their host of new cosmetic options, further extending your ability to create a truly unique underhive fighting force!

The addition of the Servo-Tech fighter career should come automatically with the new 1.4.4.2 patch, without the need for any manual operation on your part. Existing saves should be 100% compatible with today’s update, meaning you’ll be able to recruit Servo-Techs to any and all of your current Gangs, provided these still have free slots in their active or reserve crews.




Today’s fifth update and Servo-Tech release also coincide with the annual Skulls for the Skull Throne celebration. This week-long event has always heralded big discounts and new content drops for many titles of the Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 universes, and this year’s edition is no different.

Starting today until June 10th, Necromunda: Underhive Wars’ base game will receive a 60% discount on Steam, with the Cawdor Gang and Van Saar Gang DLCs both also receiving their own price reductions.




This concludes today’s fifth major update, and we sincerely hope you’ll enjoy playing around with new Servo-Tech builds and Gang compositions!

While this patch should install automatically as soon as you update your game, don’t hesitate to reach out to us via the game’s Steam or Focus Home Interactive Technical Forums should you experience any issue.

As always, we would like to take a moment in order to express our heartfelt thanks to all community members for your time, continued support and interest in Necromunda: Underhive Wars.

We wish you all a wonderful day, and we leave you with the complete 1.4.4.2 patch notes below.

See you in the underhive!

Best regards,
- The Rogue Factor Dev Team

Following last month’s fourth Major Update, we’re back today with a small-yet-important hotfix that was requested by multiple community members, in response to the possible corruption of some (generally older) Commander Profiles.

Since this particular piece of save game data holds information about all completed Infamy Tasks, as well their associated Infamy Points, we thought it important to provide all players with an optional tool that will - should the need arise - allow you to repair and reinitialize said Commander Profile.

A TOOL TO REINITIALIZE AND RECALCULATE INFAMY POINTS

The Commander Profile is at the heart of your Necromunda: Underhive Wars experience. It is the system that continuously monitors and tracks the completion of Infamy Tasks, in order to award their associated (and most useful) Infamy Points.

In some instances (especially in older saves), it is possible for corrupted data to have been introduced over time within the Commander Profile, and to interfere with the normal game flow. If this is your case, you may have noticed some Infamy Tasks failing to register as complete (even though their achievement conditions have been met), or that some of the associated Infamy Points have not been granted as they should’ve been.

If this is your case, you might want to recalculate your Infamy Points (but do so only if needed - please read on).


The new optional tool will first delete, then entirely rebuild a player’s Commander Profile, which contains a list of all completed Infamy Tasks and their associated Infamy Points.

In doing so, the tool will repair any existing profile corruption and attempt to reallocate previously gained Infamy Points. Gang saves themselves will be unaffected.


Because of how the system tracks progression, some Infamy Tasks cannot be recovered, and have to be reinitialized entirely.

These will be reset to their default values (as if the title was booted for the very first time), and it will be possible to reobtain their associated Infamy Points by playing the game and meeting their unlock conditions once more.

In other words, don’t use this tool unless you have to. It’s normal for spent Infamy Points to be momentarily unavailable if you have previously forfeited an Operation - these will be returned to you when you next complete a new Operation. You should not use the repair tool to try and circumvent this system, unless you’re ready to re-unlock some Infamy Tasks from scratch.


Launching the tool is really easy:

1. Launch the game
   
2. From the Main Menu, head over to Options
   
3. Navigate to the Gameplay Options. You’ll find the button at the bottom of the tab.
   
4. That’s it! Once the operation is complete, you’ll be returned to the Main Menu.

This concludes today’s small hotfix update - we hope this new tool will be useful to those of you who might have experienced issues with the tracking of Infamy Tasks and Points in the past.

As always, we would like to take a moment and express our gratitude to all community members for your time, patience and continued support - we truly appreciate your most valuable participation and feedback, and we’ll be back soon with more Necromunda news!

Until next time, stay safe everyone, and we’ll see you in the underhive!

Best regards,

The Rogue Factor Dev Team

Greetings, friends and fellow Necromunda: Underhive Wars players -

As always, we hope that this message finds you well.


It is with great pleasure that we’re back today with a fourth Major Update, Patch 1.3.4.6, which brings a host of community-requested AI improvements and bug fixes for all owners of the game.

As with its December counterpart, this new update also introduces a brand new faction to the underhive - the unwavering zealots of House Cawdor!

And so, without further ado, let’s dive right in!



The Cawdor bring a fanatical bent to Necromunda: Underhive Wars’ explosive vertical combat, and acquiring this DLC will allow you to take control of these ferocious cultists in both Operations, Skirmish and Multiplayer game modes.

Bound by their beliefs and forever hiding their faces behind elaborate masks, Cawdor zealots will shrug off pain and blows that would cripple other fighters, maintaining their full battle capabilities even when grievously wounded.

These battle-hardened fanatics also come packing their unique and iconic looks, weapon skins, House perk and, of course, numerous combat skills. As always, you’ll be able to customize every gameplay and cosmetic aspect of this new force, ranging from their armor pieces, weapons, consumables, color schemes, and much more!


As before, players who do not own this DLC will still be able to face off against human or AI-controlled Cawdor opponents, bringing new content to all Necromunda: Underhive Wars community members.

PATCH 1.3.4.6 SUMMARY

Patch 1.3.4.6 follows a tested-and-proved formula you should now be familiar with, if you’ve followed our previous October, November and December Major Updates.

Along with the new Cawdor DLC, Necromunda’s Dev Team has once again prioritized community feedback and reports in order to continue iteration on the experience.

This new patch also brings much requested AI improvements, with a special focus on enemy aggressivity. Indeed, we’ve been hard at work rethinking some of the decision-making algorithms to make big and small tweaks that will make a big difference in the general threat that AI-gangs will pose to their rivals (both human and other AIs), notably:

• AI Fighters will now favor attacking enemies over buffing allies.

• AI Fighters are now less likely to buff themselves if this cannot be immediately followed up by an offensive action.

• AI Fighters with long-range capabilities will now seek to maintain an optimal distance from their foes, in order to maximize both their offensive and defensive capabilities.

• AI Fighters will no longer spend AP on some environment interactions that provide no immediate use/benefit to them or their teammates.

As with all previous patches, we’ve also put a lot of effort into removing various reported crashes, soft blocks and numerous bugs on all platforms - the complete list of which can be found in the exhaustive 1.3.4.6 Patch Notes below.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR NECROMUNDA: UNDERHIVE WARS?

With this fourth major patch and second DLC now live, our team is now working on a new piece of content that will benefit all owners of the game, and all existing gangs. We’ll be back with more details on this upcoming update in the near future.

In the meantime, if you encounter any errors with this new game version, please don’t hesitate to report them on our Steam or Focus Home Interactive Technical Forums, where we continue to monitor all community-driven tickets with attention.

As always, we also invite you to consult our detailed Bug Reporting Guide if you would like to know how to join your logs and save files to your reports - these continue to play an important part in our post-launch support activities, and we thank you for your participation!




This concludes today’s update. Once again, we would like to complete today’s update post by saying a heartfelt thank you to all community members for your time, patience and continued support - we truly appreciate your most valuable participation and feedback, and we hope you’ll thoroughly enjoy today’s new update and Cawdor DLC!

As is now tradition, we’ve compiled the complete 1.3.4.6 patch notes below for your reading pleasure.

We wish you all a wonderful day or evening, and we’ll see you in the underhive!

Best regards,
The Rogue Factor Dev Team

We are delighted to reveal that House Cawdor is going to war on February 16 as the second gang DLC of Necromunda: Underhive Wars!

This ferocious cult of battle-hardened fanatics is ready to convert and conquer the Underhive!




The Cawdor bring a fanatical bent to the action-packed, vertical shootouts in Necromunda: Underhive Wars in both single and multiplayer modes. Bound by their beliefs and forever hiding their faces behind elaborate masks, Cawdor zealots will shrug off blows that would cripple other fighters, maintaining their full battle capabilities even when grievously wounded.



Cawdor fighters also allow for the same suite of heavy gameplay and cosmetic customization as all other gangs. Recruit, customize and grow these mysterious cultists to create a truly unique and dangerous gang through your own choices of careers, perks, skills, armor pieces, weapons, consumables, color schemes, and much more!



The arrival of the Cawdor gang follows on from the release of the Van Saar gang and several major patches, as part of Necromunda: Underhive Wars’ post-launch support.

Necromunda: Underhive Wars is available now on PC. The Cawdor Gang will be released on February 16.

Greetings, friends and fellow Necromunda: Underhive Wars players -

As always, we hope that this message finds you well.

It is a huge pleasure for us to be back today with the game’s third Major Update, Patch 1.2.4.2, which one again brings a host of improvements and fixes to the game, as well as introducing a brand new faction, the techno-clad fighters of House Van Saar!

https://youtu.be/gei6RRpF70I
We're also happy to celebrate this release with a 40% discount, and an additional discount of 10% for all owners of Mordheim: City of the Damned!

As usual, we’ve got lots to cover in today’s post and accompanying patch notes, so grab your favorite beverage, make yourself comfortable, and let’s dive right in!




The agents of House Van Saar are the latest to join the fray in the violent depths of the underhive! Flaunting high-tech weaponry and unprecedented discipline, Van Saar fighters are also clad in signature protective suits that increase their regenerative capabilities and allow them to ward off damage, making them a fearsome force on the battlefield.

Acquiring this DLC allows you to take command of the Van Saar gangs, who come packing their unique looks, weapon skins, House perk and numerous combat skills. Lead these advanced fighters in both the Operations and Multiplayer game modes, where you will be able to recruit, grow, manage and customize all aspects of your new forces.

Driven by their House’s wealth and techno-doctrine, Van Saar fighters will strive to dominate the competition through advanced tactics – controlling the ebb and flow of the battle with their ranged firepower and unique ability to deploy devastating plasma turrets.

Players who do not own this DLC will still be able to face off against human or AI-controlled Van Saar opponents, bringing new content to all Necromunda: Underhive Wars community members.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1437130/Necromunda_Underhive_Wars__Van_Saar_Gang/




Patch 1.2.4.2 follows a formula you should now be familiar with, if you’ve followed our previous October and November Major Updates.

Along with the new Van Saar DLC, the Dev Team has continued to focus on community feedback and reports, as well as internal QA tests, in order to continue iteration on many aspects of the experience.

We’ve continued working on the AI and game pacing by making further improvements to the bots’ overall decision-making processes, as well as reducing the time required for these to be completed. AI fighters will now also make notably better tactical decisions in Retrieval missions, perform better pathfinding calculations, as well as display improved accuracy when throwing grenades and other explosives.

As before, we’ve also put a lot of effort into removing various reported crashes, soft blocks and numerous bugs on all platforms - the complete list of which can be found in the detailed 1.2.4.2 Patch Notes below.




If you’re reading this message, the 1.2.4.2 update should already be LIVE. Release times for the Van Saar DLC contents are shown on the image above.

If your game is set to update automatically, you should now see version 1.2.4.2 in the lower corner of the Main Menu. Previous saves should be 100% compatible.




With this third Patch and first DLC now fully deployed, our team has already started working on yet another Major Update, which should arrive in early 2021.

Our plan is to continue making fixes and improvements to the base game, while also bringing even more new contents. As always, community feedback and reports will remain one of the main driving vectors behind future development efforts.

We’ve also been told of mysterious disappearances taking place in the lower levels of Hive Primus - whispers of entire patrols - and even fully armed, veteran gangers - simply vanishing in the darkness of its lawless depths.

While these occurrences are not, per se, unusual, they seem to coincide with the reported discoveries of more and more cryptic scrawlings, and of the growing echoes of strange chants sometimes being heard reverberating through the halls of the underhive’s abandoned manufactorums. Denizens of all Sectors are, however, ordered to pay no heed to these seditious rumours and to maintain all production quotas - failure to comply being, of course, subject to severe punishment.

We’ll be back with more details on future Necromunda: Underhive Wars updates after the holidays. In the meantime, if you encounter any errors with this new game version, please don’t hesitate to report them on our Steam or Focus Technical Forums, where we continue to monitor all community-driven tickets with attention.

As always, we also invite you to consult our detailed Bug Reporting Guide if you would like to know how to join your logs and save files to your reports - these have played a huge part in helping us quickly reproduce, isolate and fix bugs of all kinds since launch.




Once again, we would like to sincerely thank all community members for your time and continued support - we’ve made a lot of progress since the game’s release back in September, and we’ll continue to do so in the coming month. We truly appreciate your patience, participation and most valuable feedback!

We sincerely hope that you’ve enjoyed reading today’s update, and that you’ll love all the improvements this new patch brings to the game - not to mention commanding the high-tech forces of House Van Saar!

Before leaving you with the complete 1.2.4.1 patch notes below, we would finally like to take a moment to wish each and every one of you a wonderful holiday season - we sincerely hope you’ll be able to find a lot of joy, love and comfort - even in these strange times.

With this, we wish you all a great day. Stay safe everyone, and we’ll see you in the underhive!

Best regards,
The Rogue Factor Dev Team

We are thrilled to reveal that House Van Saar is joining the battlefield on December 14 as the first DLC of Necromunda: Underhive Wars!

With their brand-new set of skills, unique House perk and high-tech looks, this technological powerhouse is ready to wreak havoc in the Underhive!




The Van Saar bring a new twist on the signature freedom of movement, tactical depth, and verticality of Necromunda: Underhive Wars. Clad in their signature suits of armour, they are ranged specialists with a penchant for trading movement for further firepower. They’ll blast their enemies away without a second thought, crushing them beneath a wave of lasfire, improvised explosives, bolter shells and automated turrets..



The Van Saar also allow for the same suite of heavy cosmetic and gameplay customisation as all Necromunda gangs. Recruit, customize and grow fighters to create a truly unique and dangerous gang through your own choices of careers, traits, skills, equipment pieces, offensive and tactical consumables, colour schemes, and much more! The choice is yours.



This represents the next step in Underhive Wars’ live support, which has already included months of updates and patches to bring community-driven, post-launch improvements to the game. Stay tuned for even more upcoming contents!


Necromunda: Underhive Wars is available now on PC. The Van Saar Gang will be released on December 14.

Greetings, friends and fellow Necromunda: Underhive Wars players -

As always, we hope that this message finds you well.

It’s a huge pleasure for us to be back today with another major update, Patch 1.1.0.22, which comes with more than 100 new improvements and fixes to the game!

Together with the 150+ tickets already addressed by last month’s 1.1.0.0 Patch, this new update will continue to improve your experience with the game, and we’re certain that you’ll be able to feel its effects as you dive back into the Underhive!

Just like last time, we’ve got quite a lot to cover today, so let’s jump right in, shall we?


As with the previous patch, we have mostly been focusing on community feedback and reports, as well as our own internal QA tests, in order to identify the priority fixes to address in this new update. Here is a short summary of the 4 major pillars on which the Dev Team’s efforts were primarily concentrated for Patch 1.1.0.22:

• AI Improvements (+Pacing)
  
• Fixing Crashes
  
• Fixing Soft-Blocks
  
• Fixing Bugs

We have begun working on the much-requested AI Improvements, many of which have also improved the game’s pacing by significantly reducing the AI’s decision-making time in various circumstances. All in all, we’ve worked on making all AI-controlled fighters smarter and more aggressive throughout - an important undertaking which we’ll continue to iterate on in upcoming updates.

Like before, we have also put a considerable amount of effort in order to remove game-breaking blockers, as well as continued to fix numerous crashes and bugs on all platforms.

Finally, this new patch also brings a host of various balancing and quality-of-life improvements, such as finally fixing the Invert X and Y options on both Gamepads and Mouse+Keyboard, as well as adding the video option to turn Motion Blur on/off - two elements that were requested by many community members.

As always, you can find the complete and comprehensive 1.1.0.22 Patch Notes at the end of this update post - these will provide you with a detailed list of the 100+ tickets that are included with this new update.




If you’re reading this message, the update should already be LIVE.

If your game is set to update automatically, you should now see version 1.1.0.22 in the lower corner of the Main Menu. Previous saves should be 100% compatible.


With the 250+ fixes and improvements from 1.1.0.0 and 1.1.0.22 now fully deployed, we’re already turning our sights towards the next update (1.2), which is currently planned for December.

Our plan is to continue working on the AI front, while also continuing to monitor all community channels in order to gather and address your feedback.

We’ve also heard rumours - whispers of a new gang emerging from the shadows of the underhive, eager to claim territory and resources for their House. Unfortunately, none of the scouts we’ve sent out to gather intel have returned - and it seems the only bodies we could recover were strangely irradiated, leading to their quick disposal. Our investigation continues, with new “volunteers” being dispatched daily.

In the meantime, if you encounter any errors with this new version, please don’t hesitate to report them on our Steam or Focus Home Interactive Technical Forums - we continue to read everything with attention, and your community-driven tickets are always one of the main driving forces behind the title’s updates.

You can also consult our detailed Bug Reporting Guide if you would like to know how to join your logs and save files to your reports - these play a big part in helping us to quickly reproduce, isolate and fix bugs of all kinds.




As always, we would like to thank you very much for your time, patience, participation, continued support and feedback.

We sincerely hope that you’ve enjoyed reading today’s update, and we’re convinced that you’ll love all the improvements added to the game with the new patch. Speaking of which, the complete 1.1.0.22 patch notes now await you below.

With this, we wish you all a great day, and we’ll see you in the Underhive!

Greetings, friends and fellow Necromunda: Underhive Wars players -

We’re happy to be back today with fresh development news.

The release of our first 1.1 update, earlier this month, has only been the first step of our work on community feedback. After this first round of technical fixes, we’re now looking into your suggestions and we’d like to give you more visibility on what’s coming next!


The team has been working hard on players’ reports and ideas, and our next patch will focus on the topics below:

• Faster AI decision-making
  
• Overall stability improvements
  
• Progression issue corrections (infamy points/Achievements)
  
• Various other bug fixes

We’ll dive deeper into the full patch notes once the next update deploys. We’ll then continue to read and compile your reports to guide our future development efforts.

Besides global improvements based on your feedback, we hear your request for new content and we confirm that it’s coming. We’ll have more information to share on this subject following the release of the next 1.2 update.

Finally, we’re excited to be part of Steam Digital Tabletop Fest!



Being the first video game adaptation of the mythical tabletop game Necromunda, we couldn’t miss the first festival celebrating games in the intersection between physical and digital. We strongly encourage you to have a look at the event as there will be a lot of great livestreams in the next few days.

We’re also thrilled to announce that Necromunda: Underhive Wars will be 25% off until October 26 to celebrate the festival!

Have a nice day in the Underhive, and see you next time for more community news!

Greetings, friends and fellow Necromunda: Underhive Wars players -

We hope this message finds you well.

In the past few weeks, many of you have been asking questions about ongoing development efforts, and when an update would become available for the title. Well, the time is now.

Following last week’s beta-branch deployment test, we’re extremely happy to be back today in order to present you Patch 1.1. This major update has been in the works from quite some time now and aims, as you’ll discover, to address many of the principal issues that were brought to light since the game’s release on September 8.

And so, without further ado, allow us to dive right into the contents!


We’ll be deploying the patch in two phases - first on PC today, Thursday, October 1, and then on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles next week.

If your game is set to update automatically, you should now see version 1.1.0.X in the lower corner of the Main Menu. Previous saves should be 100% compatible.

Although the update should be automatic, PC players who have been testing the beta release of this patch in the past few days should now opt out of the beta, and revert to the main branch.




Following community feedback and reports, as well as our own ongoing QA tests, we’ve identified 5 major pillars around which to concentrate the Dev Team’s efforts for this first update:

• Game Pacing
  
• Crash Fixes
  
• Save Files - Backup, Recovery and Repair
  
• Eliminating Major Soft Blocks
  
• Overall Bug Fixes

We have first improved the game’s pacing by increasing the speed at which players will begin new missions, improving the AI’s decision-making time, as well as reducing the time spent transitioning between turns, rounds and fighters. We’ve also notably removed the final Loot Round in all Exhibition skirmishes, since equipment gains/losses made in this mode do not carry over to the Gang Stash.

We have also identified and eliminated multiple crashes, on all platforms. To this note, we would like to express a warm thank you to everyone who took the time to reach out and report these in detail - your notes and logs have been a great help.

With these now out of the way, we’ve then created a first version of the automated Recovery Wizard, in order to help people whose saves had previously been affected by these errors to repair and recover their game progression.

We have finally resolved major soft blocks (bugs important enough to cause game-breaking or progression-blocking scenarios), as well as fixed numerous other overall bugs and made small balancing changes.

You’ll find most of the 150+ improvements of this update listed in the complete and comprehensive 1.1 patch notes at the bottom of this post.


It’s just as it sounds.

We’ve created an in-game tool that will recover/repair any corrupted Player Profile that could’ve been impacted by previous bugs and crashes. In order to protect from any possible future corruption, the Recovery Wizard will now also regularly create backups - which it will then use if needed.

This automated process will present you with special Main Menu prompts, should any corrupted elements ever be detected on your local installation. If this is your case, simply follow the easy on-screen instructions, and you’ll be good to go!

Please note that this is the first version of the Recovery Wizard, and that development work is still continuing on this front, in order to fine-tune further repair/recovery processes. For the moment, we’ve also included a fail-safe in the form of a wipe assistant that will give you the choice to revert all game/save files to factory settings, should your save data prove to be unrecoverable even with the Wizard.


This 1.1 patch marks the title’s first major update, but certainly not the last. The goal of today’s release is to fix most of the major issues brought to light since release, paving the way for future improvements and contents.

To this effect, we will continue monitoring all community channels in order to gather player feedback, and especially so over the next few days, in order to measure the impacts of this current patch on your experience with the game.

We are also continuing work on a number of other fronts. Most notably, our team is currently working on new ways to improve gameflow, AI behaviour and overall stability, among others. We’ll be back with more news on these topics in the near future.

If you encounter any errors with this new version, please don’t hesitate to report them on our Steam or Focus Home Interactive Technical Forums - know that we read everything with attention, and that community-driven tickets led to many issues described below being discovered and fixed in this 1.1 patch.

You can also consult our detailed Bug Reporting Guide if you would like to know how to join your logs and save files to your reports - these play a big part in helping us to quickly reproduce, isolate and fix bugs of all kinds.




As always, thank you very much for your time, and we hope that you’ve enjoyed reading today’s update! The complete 1.1 patch notes also await you below if you are interested (we recommend grabbing a drink and getting comfortable first, though, as they’re quite extensive).

We would also like to express our most sincere thanks to all of you for your patience, participation and continued support in the weeks since release - we are committed to the long-term support of Necromunda: Underhive Wars, and we’ll make sure to continue basing future development efforts on the community’s most valuable feedback.

With this, we wish you all a great upcoming weekend, and we’ll see you in the underhive!

Best regards,

Hi everyone,

As many of you have posted feedback and suggestions to help newcomers, we're happy to share today an official list of tips to help new players and veterans to dominate the Underhive!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5Yn5PaC4Fo
Take advantage of Necromunda: Underhive Wars’ signature verticality, or learn to master positioning by using the gridless movement system to its fullest. The tactical possibilities are nearly endless, and every element can be customised, from looks, to weapons, skills and passives - your gang is your own, and you better build it carefully if you want to survive.

We hope this new video will help you to learn the ropes of gang management and gang warfare, while the team continues to work hard on your feedback and reports.

As explained in our community update last week, we have been watching and implementing the feedback we received from the community, with our immediate priority being to fix technical issues players have been experiencing.

Here is what the team is working on in priority:

• Fixing blocking issues and crashes to improve stability.
  
• Fixing corrupted saves. Some of you have reported save corruption issues. if you did, make sure to send us a report to help the team to work on a fix.
  
• Fixing various technical issues reported in the last days.

The level of the AI and its speed is a big topic as well. We're investigating what can be done on that front for now and we'll share more info about that later.



Please continue to share your feedback with us in the Steam hub, as well as in our official Discord. Don't forget to read the known issues and how to report a bug before posting.

If you encounter any issues, make sure to check out our technical FAQ. We're working on server stability as well. If you can't see the number of players looking for a skirmish in multiplayer, or if you have "connecting" next to your name in the top of the screen, it means you're not properly connected and should restart the game for a quick fix.

Thanks again for your patience! We'll share more visibility about the upcoming patch as soon as we have a clear date to share here.
