Addressing the Current Connection Issues

Hey everyone,

Over the past couple of weeks, we've been receiving more and more reports about connection issues. We want to take a moment to address this topic.

First of all, we've been reading your comments and reports, and we're truly sorry about the issues! We understand how frustrating a poor connection can be and how much it affects the gaming experience

We've already identified several potential causes and are currently investigating them further. We're also testing fixes for some of these issues.

With Update 0.7.0 (Story-Collectibles + Progress Menu Update, coming later this month), we're introducing changes to make enemy pathfinding more efficient, both locally and in terms of network load. While we can't promise that these changes will resolve all connection issues, our internal testing has already shown some improvements

There are also more fundamental changes in the works that require extensive testing before we can roll them out. We don't want to make any promises just yet, but we hope to include these improvements in Update 0.8.0 (Upgrade Pack II, tba).

On top of that, we've developed new tools that help us detect network-related regressions earlier. This should help us identify and address potential problems more quickly in the future

We know there's still work to do, and we don't want to downplay the problems you're experiencing. Thank you for taking the time to report them and share detailed information with us. Your feedback has helped us identify issues that might otherwise have taken much longer to track down

We're working on it, and we'll keep you updated as we make progress. Thanks for your patience and for sticking with us!
