Hot Fix 1.1.7 - 971 just went online! This hot fix fixes the issue with the frame rate drop when using a mouse with high polling rate that started just before the weekend. This issue seemed caused by a system update that our game couldn't handle as expected. We were luckily able to patch this on our end. We apologize for any inconveniences caused. We are working on a fix for Epic Games Store and PC Game Pass right now.

Patch 1.1.7 build 12479 just went online! We've received multiple reports from players experiencing severe lag when moving their mouse cursor over the past couple of days. We're not sure what's causing the problem, but we'd like to try rolling back a recent change we made to the input system. We hope this will fix the issue. If this doesn't fix the issue, please reinstall Outbound and let us know if the problem persists after downloading and installing this patch. Any additional information that could help us identify the cause of this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
