Hi everyone! We’ve added XInput support (enabled by default) which will now allow for rumble on XInput devices and should support more controllers out of the box. This will also fix the issues with Xbox One controllers on Windows 10. Players who used custom controller bindings will need to disable XInput in the game settings menu, as they are not supported by XInput. Please let us know if you guys have any issues going forward with controllers or binding. Also, we’d like to apologise for the frequency of patches recently and for accidentally giving, then removing, the Deluxe Edition DLC from users who did not own it previously. This was due to a mistake we made and should now be resolved. Users who own the Deluxe Edition should still have the soundtrack so let us know if you don’t see it. As thanks to everyone who has put up with our $#*& over the last week, we’ve made you a cool new Revolver Rifle skin! [img=http://samuraipunk.info/files/capture_1024.png] We really appreciate your continued support and feedback on the game. You’ve all been incredibly helpful in helping us to improve the game and give you the best possible experience. Thank you! :) Bugfixes and Improvements (Including 2.1.6 hotfixes)

• Controller rumble added to all weapons and to certain player actions. If you don’t enjoy the rumble, you can disable it by turning off Screen Shake in the game options. (There’ll be a separate option in a future patch.)

Hey Guys, this patch contains some cleanup as we continue our work to stabilise the game and improve the user experience. We’ve also added some pretty new Achievement Icons yay!
