Lord Captains, our second large patch is live! We’re addressing a handful of quest and cutscene issues in this patch. Another update is expected next week. Our priority will be ironing out the remaining quest bugs, and after that, we'll focus on incorrectly functioning talents and abilities.
To our dear founders: Unfortunately we had to delay the Shrine of Remembrance and credits name update this time to focus our effort on fixing and checking the game breaking issues. We sincerely apologize for the delay, and intend to add the missing names next patch.
This patch will become available on Mac and all consoles within ~24 hours.
