[2021] Season 01: Patch 05

A lil somethin somethin: You can find the details for this event on the announcement page here.

Hello Miners,

Here it is, the final patch for Season 1 (unless something goes horribly wrong of course...but it always never does…). We have fixed several crashes, weapon issues and attempted to make Hiveguards aggressively guard again. But most importantly, clients can pet Hack-C again for that moral support.

With Love,
The Ghost Ship Crew
