Hi everyone,

Thank you all for your patience. Although we had expected to release in early-mid February, the number of fixes we wanted ultimately took longer to do because of the additional, extensive testing that followed. We've doubled down and made a lot of progress in terms of quality of life improvements, gameplay balances, and of course, bug fixes.

Changes we referenced in our previous blog post are all present. Regarding on-disk size for PC users - for this patch, it’s a very small change. That said, we did find a way to dramatically decrease the size, but that fix is going to take much longer to test to make sure we get it right as it will touch every single part of the game. It came down to this: do we delay the patch further for that fix, or do we release the many fixes we have and patch on-disk size later? We decided to release the fixes we’ve got rather than delay any longer since there are so many meaningful changes.

Below is the comprehensive list of every effort put into this patch, 1.05.

Thanks for sticking around with us,

Ray McCaffrey
Executive Producer
