Great stuff, everything looks fantastic like usual. Especially the Icy Thresher, that type of skin is always nice.

Although I'll admit I'm a bit disappointed that one of the Thresher skins didn't end up being for Bigeye, but I guess for now I'll have to put that on my wishlist.

We did add a Coastal-tier Bigeye Thresher skin ('Infected') this patch :)

Ahhhh, Great White was always my points farmer, lol. Good call, tho - It definitely needed a reduction.

Can I get a screenshot or explanation of what exactly is bugged? As far as I can tell, Russian translations are working fine.

yes

[KingJackaL]

Thanks, we've found the issue with the quick chats (impacts languages like Russian/Chinese/Japanese/Korean, that use longer byte-length characters). We'll be fixing this in the next patch.
