Stretch goals - Day 5: Comm lines are open. We hear every word in the static.

[p][/p][p]Hey everyone,[/p][p]We’ve made a few adjustments to our stretch goals based on the your feedback we’ve received since the campaign launched. Our goal has always been to focus on what matters most to the community and what will make the biggest impact on the final game.[/p][p]Here’s what’s changed:[/p][p] - We’ve reordered some goals to better reflect what players are most excited about.[/p][p] - We’ve merged localization into the core development plan. It’s something we definitely want to include, not something that should depend on a stretch goal.[/p][p] [/p][p]Top Feedback from Kickstarter: [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]"I believe in your work! Brazil has a huge audience! We love playing and would appreciate if you could add Portuguese (br) subtitles! I'm a supporter in love with this work of art you've been developing."[/p][p][/p][p]Your signals surge through our network - confirmed, received, amplified.
Every pledge and every trace you leave in the system brings Carbon online.[/p][p]
Augs, synchronize. Day five is complete - initiation continues.[/p]
