- A Novint Falcon version was announced (titled Ascension Reborn) but was never released.[3]
Issues unresolved
Game crashing
- The game sometimes crashes, mostly at the beginning when entering the hangar. Regardless of the crash, the game will likely be saved before the crash so you don't lose the progress and likely will not crash. If it still does, try doing something that will break the cycle (like going to the menu) and if it doesn't, then reinstall the game or install outside Program Files.
Issues fixed
Incessant camera spinning
