PRECEDENCE: Flash

SITUATION
We would very much like to release the 1.60 update later this week. That would clear the way for the final leg of our journey to Apex[store.bistudio.com]. It would allow us to start staging some very interesting components of the package in phases. And of course it would mean everybody gets to enjoy the Visual Upgrade[dev.arma3.com] and other improvements. Give the most recent Release Candidate[dev.arma3.com] build a go if you can, and alert us to any last-minute issues on the forums[forums.bistudio.com]. Our developers' work on Apex is meanwhile subject to Strict Data Lock and Localization Lock. For those of you new to our development cycle, this means that all work and changes in data must now be explicitly approved. We do this to consolidate the package, to monitor how all components interact with each other, to stabilize the build, and of course to pester our beloved devs! The second lock means the bulk of texts have been submitted for translation and any further changes need careful coordination. This doesn't mean work has finished, far from it, but we're nearing our destination on the #RoadToApex.
