The latest weekly Project Genom newsletter has been published to inform the community about the tasks the team has been working on in the most recent days. This week's is packed with information including the update to the latest Unreal Engine and big network improvements that will help improve performance and reactivity of the game.
The team has been working quite hard to make the transition from the initial location to the next a more logical progression and over a reduced amount of terrain. In addition, the field camp that could be seen in the distance has been updated graphically with new structures and additions.

For characters, the skinning of female armor models is complete and male customization options (skin tone, hairstyles, facial hair, scars etc.) have been added.
