MAIN CHANGES
This update replaces the “Cluck of the Dark Side” episode with the full “Ultimate Omelette” episode in CIU, directly playable from your Profile screen. This is a temporary and experimental feature, so enjoy it while you can, and report bugs here.
Also, Halloween content has been added to mobile versions of the game. This is also temporary due to size restrictions and will be eventually replaced with Thanksgiving content in the next update.
Bug/Idea medals will be awarded later in the day. Note that your medal cannot be awarded if your in-game callsign doesn’t match your forum name (put it in your forum profile where it says “name” so I can find it).
COMPATIBILITY
You will lose:
- any mid-mission progress
- your language selection
- your seasonal content setting
