On the technical side, there is improved lighting and shadows, updated textures and effects, and other fine detail throughout San Vansterdam.
The UI has presentation improvements throughout the game, including visual updates with animations, video effects, and sound effects. Also, the Map has been improved to show other players. We’ve also upped the max number of players in a server to 150 while improving performance across platforms. And we’re going to keep on working on this through live service.”
