Trench Run TRENCH RUN – BUILD 12 – PETS + TOYS, MORE MAPS, COSTUMES AND DRUNKENNESS

Hey,

This is most likely the last patch before a major Steam release which we’re aiming at Thursday next week (no promises though). This build provides lots of fixes including engine fixes from KAG (like resolution bugs). We also added an Australia + Oceania region, so come play with nicer pings if you are from there :). Class balance feels very good now, but if you have issues feel free to comment on forums.

Unfortunately all the regions are kept separate for redundancy's sake - this way if one region goes totally offline, there's no effect on the others, and we have no "master region" single point of failure. As a bonus, it helps us avoid extra latency - otherwise the servers would have on average 250ms of delay for any transaction, which would make everything just that little bit less responsive.

 

Coins shouldn't be reset in the other regions, but I can see if something's gone wrong... If it has I'm not sure if it'll be recoverable though.

Those ones aren't done yet :)
