🆕 NEW FEATURES
Added texture streaming to reduce memory use. When enabled, the game will continuously adjust texture sizes depending on objects in camera view, saving approximately 1-1.5Gb of memory depending on the scene. The new option is on by default, but can be toggled through the graphics settings.

🪲 Known issues
For some users, the game may take up to 5 minutes to launch.
We're unsure of the cause at the moment and are continuing to investigate - if you are having trouble launching the game (no game window appears after a minute, the game sits on a black screen for a minute, etc) it may be that it's still initializing. If the game continues to fail to launch, please email logs to [email protected] - these will help us troubleshoot the issue. Thank you!
The game crashes on Intel Arc GPUs due to DX11 support limitations
For now we recommend installing and using DXVK as a workaround
Discord overlay may not be compatible with the game and may prevent keyboard inputs from being registered
Combat prediction holograms can stop working, failing to show bullets, current facing direction, and other important combat actions
If you run into this, relaunch the game. We are actively working to reproduce and resolve this, so please look forward to a future hotfix.
Sometimes, UI in salvage screen cannot be clicked
To work around this, use the buttons at the top of the columns to change the entire category, then adjust the ones that you can click. We are still troubleshooting this issue
Bosses or base defenses may have overlapping UI icons if multiple boss fights are completed in the same game session
Some pilot traits don't display their effects in the briefing squad UI
Backpacks are not listed in the briefing squad UI
UI during transition event after first capital battle can be confusing; some players report being stuck after the first fight in the capital province, with the screen being blurred and province movement locked. The campaign requires you to camp at that moment. Please check the bottom left corner of the screen and confirm camp to proceed. If you do not see the camp button in the bottom left corner of the screen or if the button is unresponsive, please submit an in-game report to help us investigate this issue further.
