An update is now live including changes to the gunplay in Estranged, and some tweaks to the current final level of the game.
Level Updates

I have been working on pacing of the current final level, as I received some feedback that the introduction of the turret and Sokol guards isn’t very smooth.
Combat Improvements
This has been a difficult thing to pin down - there are a few changes to the combat in this update, including a new crosshair for weapons, new pistol firing and handling sounds, a more prominent muzzle flash and changes to weapon accuracy.
Smaller Download
This will impact newer players more than those who follow the updates, but this update shaves around 1.5GB from the on-disk size of Estranged.
Linux Known Issue
There is a known issue on Linux in this update with foliage rendering in the forest level. This is why Linux did not receive last weeks' update, though I decided I'd like to get the combat changes into the hands of Linux players too - I will work on finding the cause of the bug over the next week.
Swedish Translations
Act II now has Swedish translations thanks to community volunteer Felix!
Your feedback very important at this stage of development. If you have any thoughts, issues, bugs etc please email me at alan [at] alanedwardes (dot) com, leave a post on the forums, or drop a Steam review.
