We won't be giving out new beta keys for a few weeks yet because we're rebuilding game systems to make sure everything is stable and fun. By focusing on UI improvements, persistence, and stability we hope to provide the best experience possible for our new players. We know that lots of you are excited to jump in the game, but this work allows us to give you a Fractured Veil that can grow with the community and respond more quickly to your input. A usual, a big mahalo to our testers for helping us find what's not working and pointing out where we need to upgrade. Here's everything you found last week that we fixed.
- Larry - Items aren’t all reappearing after relog
- EspAion - Hotbar order isn't persisting on relog
- Sombrefou and Eldisty - Reduce distance of voice channel
- Elliot - Quick Craft not working properly
- Larry - when I'm scrolling thru the crafting menu it's moving my hotbar in game
- zaccsi and Azshire The Great - Inventory not refreshing
