1.0.1.4 — password-protected private lobbies

The developer’s 1.0.1.4 announcement, published on October 14, 2026 (UTC), adds private lobbies protected by a password. If you want to play with a known group, check the current lobby-creation controls and share the lobby password with the people you intend to invite.

The same notes list fixes for false anti-cheat kicks, missing audio, joining problems and crashes. These are changes reported by the developer. They do not establish that every connection, audio or stability problem is resolved on every PC.

  • Private lobbies can use a password.
  • The notes report fixes for false anti-cheat kicks and missing audio.
  • Joining and crash fixes are listed in the same update.

1.0.10 — voice chat, reports and match protections

The earlier 1.0.10 announcement was published on October 12, 2026 (UTC). It introduces voice chat with T as the push-to-talk key and a Report option in the pause menu. Check your current controls and microphone settings before relying on voice communication in a match.

That announcement also reports anti-cheat and spawn-protection changes, plus fixes for saved loadouts and the progression display. Use the official post for its complete wording; version labels here follow the developer’s published titles.

  • Hold T to use the published push-to-talk binding; confirm your current settings.
  • The pause menu provides the announced Report option.
  • The notes cover anti-cheat, spawn protection, saved loadouts and progression display fixes.

Practical checks after an update

If an announced feature is missing, first close the game and check its Steam download queue. Let the available update finish, restart Steam if the client has not refreshed, and launch again. For an audio issue, check the selected Windows output device and the game’s audio settings; for voice chat, also check microphone permissions and your push-to-talk binding.

For files that may be incomplete or damaged, use Steam’s installed-file verification in the game’s Properties. These are general troubleshooting steps, not a confirmed repair for every error. If the issue continues, describe the game version, what you were doing and the exact error in an appropriate official community report.

  • Finish pending downloads before reopening the game.
  • Check output, microphone permissions and current control bindings.
  • Verify installed files through Steam and keep the exact error for a report.
