I just wanted to chime in here and mention that we're *always* looking at the performance of the game, including the UI. It's never something we push to the side.

One thing to keep in mind though when you turn off the UI with control+U you're not just turning off the UI, you're turning off any logic that has to deal with displaying it, so there will always be some frame gain by doing that.

We have some ideas we're looking into for UI performance improvements now; nothing definite yet. It is something we're always keeping in mind and looking at ways to improve it.

One feature I pretty consistently see requested is the ability to copy your keybindings from one character to another, so I'm happy to say with the release of 4.0 you'll be able to do just that.

When 4.0 launches you'll notice a new tab in the preference window labeled "Keybinding Import/Export" from there you'll be able to save out your current keybindings to a file which you can then load on another character. When you save the keybinding they'll show up in a list which you can then select to preview and load those saved bindings. The list of keybindings you can import is shared across all your characters and saved locally on your computer. The keybindings are saved out to an XML format much like the UI Profiles are, so you'll be able to share them with friends and such.

Hey everyone!

We will be bringing Character Transfers offline to perform some additional maintenance tasks leading up to the release of 3.3.2 on Tuesday. Once Tuesday's maintenance is complete, we will be bringing Transfer back online.

I will have full times for 3.3.2 Maintenance later today.

Thanks!

My only remaining question is, if we decide to wait, can we assume we'll have Niko in the first KOTFE dump (chapters 1-9)?
Yup! You will be able to get him with the content that releases on 10/27 (or 10/20 for early access).

Hey folks,

As I mentioned in my previous post, the plan for getting Niko in Fallen Empire was that you would recruit him into your Alliance as you were playing through the storyline. However, knowing the concerns about how you access Niko, we are also going to send you a token in the mail which will allow you to have Niko right away. If you want to get Niko as a part of playing through Fallen Empire, you can still do that. Just delete the token from your mail and you will get him naturally. On the flip side, if you claim the token we will still let you do his recruitment mission later on, you will just already have him.

This way the decision is in your hands on whether you want to get him as a part of the recruitment, or if you just want him right away. And it is worth repeating, that Niko is only accessible to those subscribers who qualified for him.

Hopefully that clears up any confusion (which I created ).

These are good questions! We are working on a blog which will talk about what streamlined leveling means for Fallen Empire. My hope is to get it out sometime next week and we can talk through any unanswered questions then. Thanks everyone.

Hi everyone,

Over the weekend, there has been an uptick in the amount of people receiving 'Unspecified Errors' when attempting to patch the client using BitRaider. While, at the moment, I don't have any update on a fix, the team is looking into and are hoping to know more early this week. Once I hear anything, I will pass it along!

Thanks,

Tait
