Thank you for all of your reports and feedback! We know there are still some issues and bugs to squash, and we are working hard to fix these in our next patch.
[h2]Known Issues:[/h2]
[list]
[*] We are aware that players are still experiencing performance issues when trying to play the game. This is a high priority fix for us that we hoped to release in patch 1.0.2, but it's unfortunately taking longer than anticipated to resolve. Please be assured we are working on it and will release a fix as soon as possible that will improve performance! We're sorry if this has affected your ability to play the game, and we appreciate your patience while we work on a fix.
[*] We're also aware that occasionally coastguards will spawn on land ([i]or sometimes in the air...?![/i]) We'll tell them to lay off the moonshine and get them behaving normally in an upcoming patch.
