    Well, you would expect Hugh to be on the watch 24/7 to release a prepared blog post about the changes in the exact same moment that the update hits Steam. ;)

    Some games actually post a changelog/patch notes and make videos before a patch releases to let you know what to expect.

    It's cray-cray I know.

    Pretty sure that they will have fixed weird movement code stuff such as looking down making you blink faster and buttjumping.

    Faster Buttjumping. Well I hope they fixed the commander errors, as well as the mac problems in mineshaft.

    Ok the new cyst mode is pretty amazing, also everything looks more shinny to me now. Maybe they did some work at the render engine?

    So you "fix" the fade movement by making it go 23 speed by just blinking normally? Nice job!

    Edit: I'm curious to know who the **** are the playtesters in this game.

    Arms lab says it allows for catalyst packs, got all excited but they're not in the game.

    According to the tooltips the armory allows you to research the shotgun twice and the robo can research MAC EMP .. Yikes, looking for changes showcases all the errors in the tool tips for the commanders. Then there's the tool tips disguised as functions in the icon bars. This needs a clean up desperately.

    Cyst chains have this new building mechanic.

    You simply click on cyst to place as your normally would, but then it does this cool "draw a line of cysts" type of thing.

    You don't need to Click, place, click place, click place... Just click once, move your mouse along the ground (valid placement locations) then click at the end location. It tells you how much res it will take to get there. All the previous rules apply (1 res per cyst, previous needs to build before next)

    Ok so placing a new structure as marine commander, shows a tiny lightning bolt icon indicating weather that building will be powered or not BEFORE placing. It also orients in the direction of the nearest power node. If you are about to place a building in a room that is not powered, this lightning bolt icon glows red.
