Hi everyone,
Sorry we've been out of touch for so long, we've been hard at work rewriting a lot of the new network code to fix all the problems it introduced.
As always with network, it's a bigger task than anticipated, and thus we've been getting more and more stressed without knowing what to tell you guys.
We just released a new patch however, and this one should be vastly better than before.
We're hoping to gather some feedback from all the players over the next week and then fix the last few issues.
You can head over to this discussion; http://steamcommunity.com/app/249990/discussions/0/522729358661470285/
Which will tell you the newest fixes as well as what we’re currently working on, in the hopes that you’ll have greater clarity about what’s going on :)
Thank you again for your patience, and keep up the activity on the forums, it’s greatly helping us in figuring out how to improve the game!
