We've fixed some of the most immediate and important bugs from launch! There are still some lingering around, but we'll get to those tomorrow. These changes haven't come to Mac yet, we'll get to that in the morning.

Big things:

Fixed a softlock where the Expansion quest could not be completed
Nerfed Starbucks in Cage Fight (again)
Fixed some missing localisation strings (there are plenty left)
Fixed locked progression in Cage Fight
Fix for an infinite hype bug in Cage Fight
Fixes for some teleport bugs
Single stroke battle now deals damage
Added the credits to the build settings. Absolute cinema.
~~Intro volume is now at 60%~~ Accidentally not added, next patch for sure

Little things:

Some weapons now appear in Retro Glow mode
Clean Freak does not appear more than once for the Custodian
Fixed a very strange Force Choke infinite
Immolate quest amount reduced
Drink Dash quest reduced
Guns now count better towards the "fire guns" quest
Wishlist button removed

Thanks to everyone for reporting bugs! It's been an awesome day, and the support has meant the world to us.

Now back to work!
