Hello, friends, this is Ash, and I have two important pieces of news for you.

• The RawInputBuffer setting has been removed and is no longer configurable. The setting will be enabled at all times for players because it is more performant.

CONSOLE ONLY

• The highlight behavior for dropped weapons and the Spike is incorrect and will highlight when players are merely nearby rather than when directly looking at them. This will be resolved in Patch 11.07

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue with how New Player Tips were displayed on console
