We are super excited about all the feedback, reviews, bug reports and overall lovely messages you have been sending us. This playtest is essential for us to make the game better and so far we’re seeing a lot of interesting opinions.
We have also noticed a lot of players struggling with finding Avalon and where to build their first building. This patch is here to make sure your first 2 hours of gameplay go smoother.
Greetings from Normandy, and have fun in Avalon!
