Hi everyone,
It's July! I feel like it's been a blink of an eye since January and somehow a decade since March, but here we are finally, or already, in July.
We're currently putting the final touches on the new Settings menu that we hope will help players avoid confusion in that area of the game. It was something we got a lot of feedback on and I'm looking forward to you seeing the result. Of course, it goes without saying that we want to hear your thoughts on how we did.
The new Settings menu will still have all the existing options, PLUS new keybindings, and it adds back the ability to switch your status from online to offline, which was temporarily removed when we merged the old in-game menus into a single left-side menu. This means your "Online Visibility" will now be accessible in both the regular game settings as well as the in-game settings menu.
This new Settings menu is now combined into a single page and I personally find it much easier to navigate and use, especially when it comes to changing your resolution. You'll also find it easier to reach our support channels for when you need help. We expect to release these improvements with our next update at the end of July.
It goes without saying that we're working on more than just a new settings page, so we'll have more to share on those projects soon. We've got some long-term projects in the works that are focused on helping new players learn the game better, new event types, and new game modes.
Next week we're launching the Out of This World Showdown, and I must say, it's the best badge we've made so far. Be sure to enter and try to get that badge on your profile.
