Update 0.7.4 dedicated to Mr-Hcap
Update 0.7.4 contains no new features, no content, no changelist. It is solely dedicated to a legend, the best pilot the Liftoff community has ever known: Jules Cuvelier, also known as Mr-Hcap.
Some weeks after the sad news, we find that Mr-Hcap is still very much a part of our community. His Liftoff videos can be found on every page, group and forum dedicated to Liftoff. His speedy race results are still among the top times on the leaderboards. Most of all, the community still speaks of him daily. It’s as if Jules is still racing with us and with update 0.7.4 we’ve tried to make that a reality.
Jules’ family was kind enough to send us some of his game files and we were excited to find Jules’ flight data in those files. This update contains his flight data, which can be activated in the Dubai Legends race by pressing “H”. Keep flying, Jules.
