In the meantime, we have fixed a few issues that were reported after launch, resulting in today’s game update. [h2]Hotfix[/h2] We have included several changes in this update:[list] [*] We fixed a critical error where Airborne owners could not host campaign missions in cooperative mode if they did not own the Liberation DLC. [*] Fixed multiple issues in Airborne campaign missions. [*] Improved multiplayer server browser to reduce the time to connect to game lobbies, which is especially helpful when there are many lobbies and players. We have limited room to improve the connectivity because it is up to Steam to provide it, so it is outside our control for the most part. However, we did improve the game’s processes to lower connection times.[/list]The update is now available for download! (Hint: restart Steam if you do not see it available yet) You can find the changelog [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/400750/discussions/0/4498514133983766024/?ctp=4#c4703539060905985951]HERE.[/url] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/10379584/4042b8a046755b404352f5fd56e15db7d5520f6f.png[/img][i] Community art by @RUSSTG44[/i] [h2]Player Record[/h2] We broke the player record on Sunday when we had close to 9000 concurrent players. These numbers make Call to Arms - Gates of Hell the currently most played WW2-themed real-time tactics game worldwide; however, records are there to be broken, so we have our heads down to produce the next faction: the British. We’d like to thank you for your continued support, and we are delighted to see the enthusiasm in the community!
