📡 Transmission: Major Hotfixes & System Optimizations Are Live! Attention, Survivors!

The command center has just deployed a series of critical updates to the front lines! We have been working hard tracking down system anomalies to ensure your combat experience is smoother, sharper, and more satisfying than ever. Here is the complete briefing of the updates and fixes now live in the field:

🛡️ Combat & Weapon Tuning

Dual Pistols & Handguns Calibrated: Fixed aiming misalignment for the Armed class dual pistols and corrected structural stat errors for handguns.

Charged Shots Fixed: Resolved the issue where the handgun's two-handed charged shots would drift off-target.

Friendly Fire Collision: Bullets will now properly pass through teammates, allowing for cleaner fire lanes during intense firefights.

👾 Biomech & Horde Behavior Realignment

Corpse Cleanup Protocol: Resolved a recurring glitch where certain enemies—including the Fat Zombie and Facehugger Spider—would either enlarge or fail to despawn after elimination.

Movement Anomalies Terminated: Eradicated issues causing monsters to float into the sky, slide across the terrain unexpectedly, teleport, or suddenly revive.

Soft-Lock & Progression Fix: Fixed a critical bug where clipping monsters allowed players to skip stages while enemies were still alive.

🗺️ Sector & Level Adjustments

"Iron Forbidden Zone" Overhaul: Balanced the enemy stat progression, restructured the reward tables, fixed UI energy bar scaling issues, and resolved post-game settlement errors.

"Museum" Layout Correction: Adjusted the positioning of the Museum gate, shifting it slightly downward to fix collision and visual issues.

⚙️ System & Diagnostic Enhancements

Persistent Language Settings: Fixed an issue where players had to manually re-select their language preference every time they restarted the game. Your settings will now save properly.

Direct Log Uploads: Moving forward, after installing new patches, you will be able to upload your crash and performance logs directly without needing to exit the game.

Thank you all for your incredible field intelligence and unwavering support as we refine The Cinder Pact during Early Access! Your feedback helps us sharpen our blades and strengthen our defenses.

Lock and load, survivors. Let’s clean up these sectors!
