🐛 Known & Expected Bugs
As this is an early work-in-progress build, some issues are known and currently being addressed:
- Unresponsive AI Behavior
Enemy AI may occasionally fail to react properly. This is often caused by missing information nodes or the inability to find valid cover. We're actively adjusting these systems to strike the right balance between performance and intelligent behavior. - Weapon Rank Display Bug
In some cases, the in-game weapon rank may appear to reset or decrease after restarting a mission. This is purely a visual issue — your actual progress and weapon stats remain unaffected. - Audio Mixing Incomplete
The overall sound mix is still under development. Expect placeholder audio, inconsistent volume levels, and general imbalance. This is a key area we’ll be improving over the coming weeks. - Gameplay Lag Spikes
You may experience minor stutters or lag spikes, particularly when loading new sections of the level. We’re aware of this and working on smoother level streaming and performance optimizations.
