As usual it features masses of fixes and improvements thanks to a developer and community contributor (why haven't they hired him yet?!), i've highlighted some big ones for you:

  • Improved collision detection for melee
  • No longer having to use the US keyboard layout for the commander RTS mode
  • Added minimal HUD option.
  • Damage effect decals are now precached (Mitigates hitching during first encounters)
  • Added precaching for a few files causing big hitches when joining a team
  • Made server browser more usable for lower resolution users, especially in 4:3 resolutions

And a lot more.

Okay, now the game is playable. It seems too late tho.

There are zero servers in my region, and playing this game with more than 100 ping is a nightmare
