Hi Squaddies,
We hope that you all had a great New Years, and now that a majority of the development team is back at work, we’d like to put out a new update, version 3.9 of the current Alpha build of Squad. Contained are a number of Steam usability improvements, heaps of performance updates, Server browser improvements and other goodies.

- Fixed banning by ID issues
