DEDICATED SERVER: Today we’re soft-launching a new Dedicated Server capability for matchmade games, specifically. This should reduce the frequency of high-ping matchmade games, improve reliability, and avoid kicking players out of games if the host-player drops out. IMPORTANT: This is a soft-launch of this feature. We plan to turn it on and off, as well as tune settings, and fix bugs as it gets stress-tested by players.

INCREMENTAL MATCHMAKING: Players will now see other players join the lobby as they’re found through the matchmaking system, and they won’t have to wait for a full fireteam to start a game.

Hotfix 0.3.2.1 is available now on Steam!

Please restart the Steam client to download the latest build.
