Hey guys!

We have a patch coming that will address a potential fix for client side crashes in Dinant as well as the introduction of a new gamemode called “Skirmish”.

As an attempt to incentivize the seeding servers and easy access into action with low player numbers, we have created a small-scaled gamemode similar to AAS and free choice of weapon kits.




We will be paying close attention to how Skirmish is being received and make any potential tweaks to it over time. The next time you join the game, remember to jump in and give it a try to help your favorite community server hosts!
