Our next updates will focus on new NPCs, AI vehicles, and behaviors including the ability to mount vehicles as well as heavy optimization to improve performance across the board. More playable & AI tanks is a high priority. We will also be working on new weapons, NPC’s, and levels. You will also see some quality of life improvements such as wrist menu features and more Multiplayer host control. Under the hood optimizations will improve performance in both Multiplayer and single player. We are always trying to improve Plastic Battlegrounds. If anyone has any suggestions, feedback, or finds a bug, we want to know about it. Please let us know in Discord or on SteamVR community threads!
