I can't beat zombies due to breaking of the update

Unfortunately there is something wrong with the update

I'm going to say only one thing right now. Splinter... You are awesome. This music just blows my mind. It is so... SFD... It feels like it was there since it was created. I'm full with emotions right now. I hope I'm not going to cry tonight.

Just reached 29 022 with a few others You can keep on pretty long.

If the download fails just try again in a few minutes.

PLEASE, we are encountering MANY errors while updating and i need to play NOW, also, i see there are many MP3 files now, no more xnb conversions wohooo... the only problem is that mostly the mp3 files seem to have the most errors downloading

This update is causing a huge commotion in the Discord servers I'm in!
The brazilians were in a voice call in discord with more than 15 people discussing about it for hours and counting the seconds for the update to be posted, they are still there though.


A tip: It's easier to download the installer of the game than updating by the launcher.

Like Gurt said, just retry the update in a few minutes. There's nothing we can do about it, the server is gonna be under a lot of stress (it's also located in Norway which is bad news for non-Europeans). Hopefully we will be able to upgrade our download servers in future.

Also, Noble is right:

An alternative link for the installer for those having difficulties: https://we.tl/3gKXzQSVGt
It's way faster than launcher and you won't lose any file.

Heh, Hjarpe, this game is a monster.
It was already like that in pre-alpha version, and devs haven't even bothered to proper share the game yet, what kind of beast will this game be in future versions?
Plus, how many downloads can your servers hold by the way?

Our distribution model will most likely change in the future so we will keep it like this while the game is free.

I see now Hjarpe and Gurt are working seriously with these updates since Alpha has come out. I think the final game would be coming in 2018.
Something big is coming guys, and that the game is still in beta.

Great job guys, specially with the music and the map editor upgrades.

Update is great. Got to wave 27 or so with a few mates. Feels like the beginning of what could be a much bigger feature/game, which I'm looking forward to. Seems like fire is the way to go here, and having more than 1 partner is likely a bad option since there isn't enough health or weapons to go around and it gets too cramped in such a small map. Overall this was a great update!

oh yeah lil note here but DEBRIS DOESN'T KNOCK DOWN PLAYERS ANY MORE AND I'M PRETTY HYPED ABOUT THAT

side note: you forgot to disable cheats. I didn't use any to get to 27 but it was funny when we were messing around and figured out zombies become invulnerable too. Speaking of which: Atilla is spooky! He took a direct hit and got back up. What a guy.

"*Debris and giblets can no longer stun or knock players down." This is the real reason why I am excited.

I'm reading of the update shortly before going to sleep, and that is approximately my reaction.

Also, I've noticed that the piano notes have changed from the rather ironic soothing and composed keys to a disgusting coarse bunch-o-notes.
