Hello everyone!
First off, we apologize for not posting the previous patch notes here but the last 24 hours has indeed been intense. We had a bit of a bumpy release with a small serialization issue that grew in proportion given the high sales in the beginning which was very unfortunate. We are still receiving a few bug reports on crashes and saves that do not load properly and all seem to be related to the first version issue, however we will thoroughly investigate all of these bugs.
We are also getting a few reports on game freezes and are looking into these as well trying to pinpoint hardware related issues. If you are experiencing comprehensive issues with the game in terms of not being able to run it or in terms of resolution issues we urge you to return it so that you can get your money back.
We are also getting reports on stuck staff and passengers and these currently take priority over most other bugs. Other minor report in regards to control and audio also take priority. We will work around the clock continuing to solve your issues but right now it seems as if the majority is related to lacking UI and instructions, we're collecting your feedback and through this we understand what it is that you do not "get" about the gameplay mechanics and will continue to improve these aspects as well. Thank you for your continued feedback and patience.
Here are the patch notes for the released version, from now on we will post regular path notes per released version instead of in bulk like this.
