addedVersion 1.4.8We’ve now added a first-time user experience to give new players some guidance as to how to get started in the game. We’ve also added a time display so you can plan your loadout for day and night deployments. The team spent more time on optimizations, lowering some of the hardware requirements so the game runs smoother. There are some bug fixes to deliver more stability as well as some quality of life fixes. Finally, in anticipation of an upcoming free weekend, where we expect more players, we have re-enabled the European server region, so latency should improve for those having issues.

European servers — added a European server region (eu-central-1) for lower latency and better connections for players in Europe.

Fixed a crash when equipping a weapon if the equip animation didn't play.
