Update 1.1 for Red Solstice 2: Survivors has just been released and it contains critical bug fixes, as well as UI and quality-of-life improvements, among other changes.
One of the things players will love with the update is the improved save feature. Players will no longer have to fear losing their progress whenever the game client crashes for whatever reason.
Another notable change is the improved networking for smoother and more stable multiplayer gaming. Speaking of multiplayer, a fix has been added that greatly reduces the likelihood of crashes whenever you join lobbies.
The update is massive but we've highlighted some of the things you can expect from it:
- Improved Networking
- Players no longer lose more than a few minutes of progress in the event of a game crash
- Fix random crashes when joining lobbies
- The game automatically conducts saves every minute so that the host will not lose everything if the game crashes on the combat layer
- Players will not lose progress when the game crashes anymore
