Miscreated Patch 32

Posted on February 5th, 2016 06:01 PM EST
Miscreated patch #32 has been released on Steam and the game is now 50% off until the end of the Lunar New Year Sale.



Release Version
Starting in this patch we are now distributing a real "Release" build of CryEngine instead of the previous "Profile" build. 

A Release version is faster than the prior Profile builds. 

To distribute a Release version required us to move and pack up the game data in very specific ways, so many of the files had to be altered again, but it's worth it for the added performance benefits. 

A Release version also uses some signed and encrypted data files to better prevent anyone from tampering with them. It also whitelists all config file commands to prevent anyone from abusing those. In other words, a Release build locks everything down even better than it was before from an anti-cheat perspective. 

AI System
The AI company has been working on integrating their technology into our game. We'll release more information about it once it's fully integrated and working. 

Item Storage/Network Relevance System
Work is still progressing on the new item and network relevance systems. We plan to push out an initial version to the experimental server soon to begin testing with. Follow our Twitter account, @miscreatedgame, for the latest updates. 

Large City
The new, large city in the North that is being developed is looking amazing! We think everyone will be quite surprised when it's ready for release. 

Prone Support
A lot of work has been done on adding prone support to the game lately. No ETA yet, but it's looking really good. We'll share some videos soon of it.
