Welcome back! We've got an update for you.

Firstly we'd like to apologize. In our haste to remove money and XP farmers from the game, we penalized our Custom Difficulty goers way too harshly and bypassed the core concept of what custom was originally advertised as "Play your way".

In the long term, we will be rebalancing the entirety of Custom Difficulty's reward multipliers, to make sure that they are fairer, not overly rewarding when lower risk is taken, and stop cheesy tactics to farm easy rewards.

Today, we're removing the -60% reduction for Custom games, and adding the following until the rebalancing is finalized, early next year with 0.8.1:

Custom Reward Multipliers will now have a maximum cap of x15, displayed with the actual multiplier beside it in brackets.

Hey, there is currently an issue causing some people to not be able to connect to our server which is where the trophies and badges are now saved.

We are aware and are looking into this as a top priority, for now though the only fix is to use a VPN.

We’ve made the decision to increase the rewards for custom difficulty by changing the reward reduction from 80% to 60%. We have plans to add harder official difficulties in future content updates to help balance the game progression.

We are aware of a bug causing the Holiday trophy to not be obtainable. We are looking into this however for now you will need to use a VPN. This is a top priority for us and we hope to have this fixed as soon as possible.

Added support for HTC Vive Focus 3 Controllers
All doors in Sunny Meadows now have hands in VR when grabbed
Added a Christmas tree to the lobby

CPU usage was significantly improved in the Tempest update. What CPU do you have and what graphics options? Options like MSAA, high shadow resolution and sky light will have a big impact on your CPU so lower those if you use them.

In the HTC software that opens when you use the headset you should be able to set it there. Sorry I am not sure where it exactly is.

The last post's comments was full of people showing their dislike about early access patch notes and cj even responded to some of them, there is 0 chance they weren't aware of the feedback or that the community didn't liked it. And they just ignore all of that and do it again ?
No announcement nor info about it on the official channels. They didn't even announced the update was coming tomorrow, didn't even revealed the name of the update. I just click on twitch i see streamers streaming an update called "tempest", i check youtube and there is a 20 minute reaction video. You love to see it.

Pulling stuff like this, putting the community second and streamers first and then asking for a labor of love award for a game thats still in early access. Good moves Kinetic games.

Hey, I understand the frustration and I'm sorry for that. The content creators have been given access to what is essentially the last day of our beta testing. If you see their streams you can see there are still bugs that we are fixing today so we're not holding anything back from anyone.

The patch notes will get things added to them before tomorrow which is why they won't get posted until the update is out.

We only told the content creators yesterday that they were getting early access today as we did not know the release date ourselves. We have been working hard to make sure the update is out in time with a decent length for the Christmas event. Now we know that we can release it, we will post announcements for it.

But I started the game and saw nothing.

It says to place the camera in the ghost room.

What is a ghost room, how can I be sure the room I am is the ghost room and place it means drop?

I just entered an empty house and thats it.

Feels frustrated.

It should tell you on the board in the truck however it's broken at the moment.

Hey, we are going to be making changes to massively reduce the custom difficulty multiplier in the next update with the aim to make it about playing fun games instead of making money.
