@Goodson there have been confirmed issues with steam and tanoa. I'm guessing the message you get is a point toward it fixing it. The issue is apparently fixed on steams end just might take a bit for them to propergate the fix to clients and their servers.
I would assume Dev branch will have images in it for tanoa regardless of dlc purchase just to promote it, but then prompting users to purchase the rest of the files via DLC.
You'll get there soon I'm sure, it's marvelous.
Slightly odd, talks to pixels.

It looks very intensive, however I am loving the engagement ranges, that is going to be a serious close in meat grinder. You'll be able to perform some fab ambushes including claymores and AP mines with proper setups and firing arcs.

Even though I've got a pretty decent setup, I'm still going to set my view distance to 1k. I imagine most engagements will be quite close quarters anyway.

We need a mod that lets us mount the claymores on trees, at head height

The fps are surprisingly good when you're running around the jungle. Defintively nowhere near as bad as N'Zwisaasgas....
It's probably due to the fact that they've finally added occlusion culling to the engine in one of the #RoadToApex updates and Tanoa's trees are setup to use that (while most modded maps/objects wouldn't be). I can't even imagine how bad the fps must have been without that xD

For those on Dec branch BI have also released an update to AI driving they should be a lot less likely to crash.

Two new features added to dev branch:

  • Squad Radar (basically a built-in version of ST HUD)
  • Tactical ping (allows us to 'point' at things)

Quick video to show it:

Not really a fan of that tactical ping. Think I prefer the ace one that we currently have. I'm intrigued does the ping go to everyone in you're group or is it just the people in close proximity to you?

Good question. I'd have to test this with a few people running dev branch (and the same version).
