As far as this update, make sure you finish Project C.H.E.E.R. for those sweet rewards, but this one was mostly focused on squashing a lot of bugs. Some particularly nasty ones like the Custom Game “No Starting Shelter” progress bug have been fixed so get back into those speed runs!
Ok that is all for now, but expect some more comms from me soon with some delicious leeks for next year’s content.
