Agents, State of the Game briefing for August 25th is ready for distribution.
After a brief summer break we are back in full swing with this week’s State of the Game!
Over the past few weeks there have been a few standard maintenances to clean up the servers and make optimizations, make a few loot changes to the Underground, and deploy Underground to PS4 players.
For everything discussed on today’s State of the Game check out the VOD below!

LOOKING FORWARD
We have some important news regarding upcoming expansions and updates. Update 1.4 is going to be released separately from Survival and will focus on game balancing, bug fixing, and improving the overall experience. This means that Survival and Last Stand have been pushed to later dates. For more information check out the full announcement.
With Update 1.4, we are looking to address as many of the community’s biggest issues as possible. To kick things off we are introducing Agent Intel, a dedicated section on the forums where you will find open discussions around certain topics, polls, and theory crafting. This gives us a chance to pick your brains on a variety of topics and get immediate feedback. The first topics can be found here!
