[p][/p][p]While you've been busy keeping the horde at bay, we've been squashing bugs. Demons are absolutely crawling with them, but we've managed to kill a few of the bigger ones before they spread any further:[/p][p]
[/p]

• [p]Fixed an issue that caused some players to experience stuttering.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]Fixed an issue that caused the Electrodriver's lightning attack to not be visible when encountering the Taurus while in the Prologue.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]Fixed an issue where weapon upgrades that appeared to be equipped would not be.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]Fixed an issue where if the player unlocked an upgrade in an upgrade path that they currently did not have selected, that upgrade would be highlighted.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]Added the ability to rebind mouse buttons.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]Added the ability to rebind all keys, with the exception of ESC.[/p]

[p]

[/p][p]That should help you focus on blasting those unholy vermin. If you have feedback on the demo so far, let us know about it in this thread.[/p][p]
If you run into any more bugs, issues (or god forbid, rogue demons), please file a ticket with our support meatbags here.
