MAJOR HOTFIX: Connection Fix!

[p]As many of you have reported, a serious connection issue recently affected players. After investigating, we found that Steam maintenance on Tuesday the 10th caused some backend issues with our user stats. It seems Querying steam from the game server (how we've always done it) is now returning a 'fail' response. Nothing on our end has changed.  The team jumped on this immediately and we’ve now released a hotfix patch that should resolve the issue.[/p][p][/p][h3]Steam Support[/h3][p]Getting reactive help from Steam is next to impossible. Tickets can sometimes take days to get an answer. We’ve had to do a major rework on our side to fix an issue caused by something that has changed on Steam's side. A query to the steam API that has been working for many years is now returning a fail and causing the disconnect issue.[/p][p][/p][h3]A Quick Note on Reviews[/h3][p]We know this issue was frustrating and we truly appreciate everyone who submitted reports and helped us track it down. If you left a negative review specifically due to this problem and find things are now working correctly, we’d greatly appreciate you reconsidering or updating your review. Your support helps us continue improving the game and growing the community. Thank you to everyone who has been playing during the recent surge in players - we want to keep that train rolling.[/p][p][/p][h3]Next Build Coming Soon (v1.2)[/h3][p]We’re also working on our next build which includes some really great fixes, improvements and additions.
