Round 2 Schedule
Starts: Sep 28, 06:30 PM CEST (UTC+2)
Ends: Oct 3, 07:30 AM CEST (UTC+2)
During the 1st Round of the Public Test, we have noticed an increased amount of game crashes. We suspect that the root of the issue might be connected to the special camouflages that ships receive when selecting the Last Voyage of Transylvania, so we might have to disable these camouflages at some point during the 2nd round of the Public Test.
Captains, thank you for participating in the first round of the Public Test for Update 12.9! Your feedback helps us to improve the version and fix errors. Check out the changelog and join the second session of the Public Test!
