Dear Players,\n\nIt\'s been quite a while since our last update.\nWe\'ve been working on something big, which isn\'t quite ready yet but it\'s just around the corner.\n\nWith this update, however, we\'ve focused a lot of our energy on performance and visual quality.\n\nFirst and foremost, this update introduces Level of Detail (LOD). This means that models are rendered with less detail when further away, so that details which are indistinguishable from a distance don\'t negatively affect performance with no visual benefit.\n\nFurthermore, we have revisited almost all particle effects and changed them so that they\'re better on performance while losing barely, if any, visual quality. In fact, some effects look even better than before.\n\nWe\'re also happy to introduce our new, high-quality model of the Stomper:\n\n\n\nOf course, we also fixed multiple bugs.\n\nFind the full list of patch notes below.\n\n
