Hey there, everyone!

Sorry for the delay with this patch notes breakdown! Originally, it was intended to be posted for Monday, however a couple of small hiccups within the server caused it to be just a little bit delayed. As it turns out, pulling threads discovered in the form of bugs doesn’t always lead to the easiest of their removals and can sometimes lead into quite an unraveling. Throughout this post, we’ll outline the changes made to the different systems within the server, the numerous bumps that’ve been smoothed out, and some other miscellaneous information pertaining to the beta!

As each day goes by, we’re seeing a constant increase in numbers and it’s been exceptionally relieving to see the positive reception. It’s our goal with this project to create something people are genuinely able to enjoy and get a little lost in the sauce. With all the feedback we’ve been receiving in making adjustments to improve the experience of the server, our job’s been made way easier in that regard and so we couldn’t be more thankful to all of the current beta testers putting in the leg work and speaking their minds on the walk through our humble little corner. Keep it up, fellow chad Neoxians!

As a minor reminder, as of the posting of this patch notes update, we’re currently still accepting beta tester ranks, though will be looking to close down the applications within the next short while. For those interested, please join our Community Discord and apply through the appropriate channels.

Thanks!

Neox Staff
