The highly anticipated 0.3.4 update for Schedule I, the viral drug dealer simulator, has been released by developer Tyler following a brief testing period. The update, detailed in the Steam patch notes, marks the first major content expansion since the game's explosive launch into early access on Steam on March 24.
In a post on Steam, Tyler expressed his apologies for the delay in the update's release, attributing it to the ongoing refinement of the update and testing process. He reassured players that starting next month, larger monthly updates would run smoother and be more punctual. Looking ahead, Tyler emphasized his focus on resolving remaining bugs, prioritizing consistent employee performance, preventing save game corruption, and minimizing disconnections and loading issues in multiplayer. He also aims to enhance optimization and secure Steam Deck verification for Schedule I, using it as a performance benchmark.
