This update while not massive has been spent mainly tracking down and fixing some issues with VOIP and foliage detail at a distance. We will continue to monitor issues and make fixes as necessary, to that end we want to thank you for your bug reports as it helps us massively track down issues!

We are currently moving towards the release of Chapter 4 which we expect to start publicly playtesting very soon.

• Cleaned up the VOIP Optimization.
  
• Fixed an issue where local VOIP would accumulate in an area and cause it to be played back if a player entered the area again later.
  
• Optimized and improved Foliage LOD to better avoid harsh pop-in behaviour.
  
• Rebalanced FG-42 recoil to better fit the caliber and rate of fire.

Sincerely,

The last few weeks have been relatively quiet as we start to prepare for the upcoming release of Chapter 4: Watch On The Rhine.

But for the more regular stuff, we are continuing bug fixing and improving upon the Engine Update that release earlier in June. This update brings a couple of important fixes, but also incorporates some feedback from our community. Most of them related to layer improvements.

We are also working on some more optimization to get us closer to the goal of 100 players. We aim to run a public playtest this upcoming weekend and we will release another post with details on how you can participate. So keep your eyes out for that.
