Last Letter to the producer can be read here on current priorities https://steamcommunity.com/games/979640/announcements/detail/3102422162152822125 Winters got a model update from the last letter to the producer check it out! Not live yet
We have a podcast on Friday at noon drop in and talk to the developers we will be taking questions live towards the end! https://steamcommunity.com/games/979640/announcements/detail/3095664226117850397 The old build has been archived for those looking to finish their games on the old smaller Treasure Island map but we dont recommend carrying over saves into this build. This patch includes 3 patch fixes over the last 48 hours of updates. Expect a patch every few days this week as we work to get everything ship worthy so we can move onto civilian management ASAP!

Change list

• Circle formation issue resolved
• Added DirectX 12 launch option again should be functional and improve performance on newer GPU's
• Added Korean language
• Resolved an issue with some 'utility' characters still registering for the Crowd Manager to improve performance
• Added some 'BeginDestroy' safety to the CPCrowdAgentComponent to ensure that it properly is cleared from the CrowdManager (to avoid a crash)
• Removed the old 'FreshlyLoaded'-fix for the CrowdManager, replaced it with a more reliable AIController OnPossess check (that will fix infected, too) Result: Crowd manager crash should be fixed, and units should no longer become unable to move regardless of team affiliation
• Rebuilt proxy collision+nav in the master to respect Efrain's update on the Stadium in Presidio (should prevent units from trying to 'walk through' the stadium walls)
• Cleaned up a HideUI bug that caused unselected units to show their overhead UI even if not selected
• Further cleanup for HideUI response to not show unit interaction widgets for units that are garrisoned in any way (regardless of GameInstance setting for hiding unselected unit widgets)

More Operators adjustments will be forth coming as we work to polish it amongst the RTS aspects to get back on civilian management. We expect to wrap up polish and be back on civilian management very soon Please note the following going forward (Restart your game/steam to get the update if needed

Cepheus Protocol Anthology

We will be launching a new weekly series that will see several chapters added every Friday after release and will cover the chapters of the Novelization with 5 chapters added to expand upon the story and give more value to those itching for more lore/story information. It will delve into and show more about a secret new faction that will become the Anti-CERC in the Cepheus Protocol universe.

The Pangu Virus has been unleashed in San Francisco, turning thousands of innocent lives into mindless beasts that feel no pain and have no fear of death. With each passing hour, the Pangu Virus evolves, creating new and ever more horrific mutations with one goal in mind… Spread.

You are Captain Winter, a military officer fighting alongside the Center for Epidemic Research and Control(CERC). With a massive arsenal and the resources of the US Government behind it, you and CERC will stop at nothing to ensure the terror of the Pangu Virus does not escalate beyond containment, even if a whole city and millions of lives must be sacrificed.

• Cepheus Protocol is inspired by classic RTS games such as Company of Heroes and World in Conflict, alongside the book World War Z.
  
• Survive if you can against a relentless enemy that evolves and grows more powerful with each day.
  
• Build specialized units from a variety of bases that can be placed anywhere in the open-world map.
  
• Battle those infected by the Pangu Virus across four open-world islands, featuring unique and challenging environments.
  
• Choose from three combat tiers that play to your style. Each tier has specialized units, equipment, and weaponry.
  
• Engage a relentless horde of infected which numbers grow larger and stronger with each territory captured as you battle for control of San Francisco.
  
• Hunt Patient Zero, who races across the city seizing territory. Each capture zone increases her population as the virus spreads and possesses all organic matter.
  
• Form an alliance or side against the Anarchist and Police factions, which struggle to survive among the madness that has enveloped San Francisco.

Note: Steam Remote Play is for allowing your friends to try out the game if you already have purchased it. It's not for online co-op: that is is planned in the current roadmap, but is not complete yet
