Airmen's first weekly update drops a new map and brings light turret options into parity with heavy. The player counts always reading zero has now been fixed, which should help everyone get together in one lobby.
If you are interested in playing with us at Airborne Games, we are hosting a public playtest Friday at 5pm ET. All you need is the latest version of the game. Playtests usually last for 1 hour. If you can't make it this Friday, we host them every Saturday at 3pm ET and Monday at 7pm ET.
