Is there a chance to get rid of the "reticulating splines" shader caching thingamabob again? Also, pressing Esc or P to get to the menu doesn't work even though it's correctly set in the bindings.

Oh, and keep up the good work - when I finally got into a match, it was fun. :)

Nice changelog there, keep 'em coming guys and girls



Hoping this will close 3 bug tickets I have ;)

Alas no, just one, but created a new one too :) I like the change to the CQC time played though and the other ones that were previously showing 0 are now showing figures, it's just they differ from the ones displayed in CQC. The Exploration stats are still broken.
 
Is anyone playing cgc atm? I'd like to have a quick bash and am just locked in matchmaking :(
still not fixed actually getting into a game, unless I'm the only person in CQC ???? !!
 
Think there might be a crash. My game went down and isn't cominig back up :-(

I've just had a brief game, but then it was taking so long for next round to start the two other players left.
could be a crash, but it's letting me into matchmaking ok, so I don't think it is.
Try going into deathmatch mode not the team ones.
I still think the CQC matching is a lot broke. Can't see who is on (if any) and can't chat to drum up support.
Needs a bit more work. The main game part seems to work quite well.
If the missions where any good, there don't seem to be as many high value missions. Is that just for testing and they want people in cqc or doing other things than the usual stuff?
