    Hi Arkadians

    In this release we will be implementing a large amount of optimizations for future content. Many of the areas on Planet Arkadia have been prepared to allow smooth implementation of content surrounding missions and story line in future releases.

    This release will include the following.

    - Optimization to areas that have larger populations.
    - New events in and around firebases.
    - Instances will have hidden side quests and surprises.
    - Separating story and lore missions that were connected to the codex.
    - Many quality of life optimizations.

    Hopefully the prizes for this Gold Rush have been secured and guaranteed a timely delivery by MA this time around. A timely payout of prizes would be very welcome.

    I thought I remember Dylan saying they'd look into getting at least something for mining. I'm definitely more apt to actually make an attempt if we do have a mining section, but it might also be too late to organize prizes at this point possibly too. Either way, I'll take anything for activity on Ark again.
