update 1.02:


- we implemented a simple version of the Adaptive Far Plane Scaling which I originally built for our next project; this should improve performance across all platforms but Linux and OS X users will profit the most from this since occlusion culling is not available on these platforms - the Adaptive Far Plane Scaling will trade quality for performance on systems struggling to keep 30FPS so keep this in mind when wondering about diappearing landscape
- we changed the color space from gamma to linear, somehow this got lost in our development process; it basically means a huge (!) visual improvement - all of the lightmaps need to be recalculated which will happen over the next days just in case you see some strange artifacts on walls: this is normal right now
- SSAO is now part of our render pipeline, we also fine tuned the other effects
- all players will now use the same servers in North America. Not doing this was a huge mistake on our end since it was pretty obvious to split up the already small playerbase even further. We don't know how negative an impact this will have for some people but right now it's more important to get the playerbase playing together
- fine tuned The Abyss to get along with the new graphic settings
- fixed the trail and lava shaders
- fixed Jernes particle effect that wasn't working
- we took out leaderboard support for now; the way it was implemented was pretty dirty and was rarely working, most of the time it would lead to crashes - we updated the store frontpage to reflect this change and will work on bringing them back in the future
- some audio fixes
- all districts are now available right from the start. Following the debate about the next CoD we decided that it would be unfair to prevent our gamers from seeing all the content of Goggles; we want you to enjoy the game and you probably know best how to enjoy it
- advanced lighting doesn't cost as much performance as it did before
