-KNOWN ISSUES
When quitting a game to start a new one, please Quit and Exit the game completely and restart it, because simply quitting to the title screen and starting a game will cause the terrain to act strangely. This is a high priority issue, and will be patched next week.
Sometimes "synced" saved characters can come out of sync, especially when the player is not the server. This can cause many "local" saved characters to accumulate. Recommended workaround is to always load the server version, as it will always work, however the "local" characters will still accumulate.
Multiplayer has seen significant regression in many ways. While it can be played, it may not be the best experience for those who are not hosting the game. This will be improved over upcoming patches.
