WELCOME TO WAVE 3!
We're adding over a thousand new players to the 'ORION: Dino Horde' Multiplayer Beta and have updated the game build from Wave 2 quite a bit with changes and additions including:
- Updated Lobbies
- Full 32-bit OS Support
- New A.I System / back-end (improved navigation)
- New Kill Cameras
SPIRAL STORE - PURCHASE TRANSFERS (YES!)
We are getting a lot of questions regarding Spiral Store purchases (hats, armors, taunts) and whether or not they will carry over for the official release / game build. The answer is YES! Now go purchase that Golden Hammer armor and Cowboy hat.
YOUTUBE & TWITCH.TV (MEDIA SHARE)
We are also being asked whether or not users can share videos and screenshots. The answer is absolutely yes. You can post any sort of media absolutely anywhere. In fact we prefer it if you report bugs WITH videos showcasing them as it typically helps us resolve them at a much faster pace.
