MENACE Patch #2 - Experimental AI Fix, Rebalanced Reinforcements, and Fixes

Hi all,

we are presenting you patch number 2 that includes some pressing fixes as well as some balancing improvements. Most importantly, we added an experimental fix for the AI avoiding hidden player units. Please let us know if the problem persists after the patch!

We will keep fixing and balancing the game for this week but you can also expect an Early Access roadmap soon.

Thank you all for your ongoing support!

Known Issues

• Linux only: Videos don't play correctly if no H264 codec is installed. Even with H264 codec installed some might stutter on Linux.
• Some antivirus programs incorrectly classify the "GameAssembly.dll" file as malware and delete it, making the game unplayable. If that happens please whitelist the "GameAssembly.dll" and "Menace.exe".
• If the game is installed on HDD drives, loading times are bad and barks are delayed.
• Some letters in Polish, Russian, and Ukrainian are displayed with a different font.
• Moving npc units in a vehicle into the rescue zone will end that vehicles turn.
