And with that the dream of a new KI is likely over.

It's sad that KI 2013 never got ported to PlayStation and Nintendo platforms before he left. But with the work done moving the online infrastructure to PlayFab for the Anniversary Edition we will always be able to play the game we love.

This was his final parting gift to the KI community before retirement:

If you are wanting a wired controller with the best Dpad ever and the lowest latency this is the one to get.

Works on Windows, Mac, Linux, Nintendo Switch 1/2.

Normal USB polling at 250hz.

The Xbox one is a little better. They slightly improved the Dpad, and it has two extra buttons, plus a headphone jack. It runs 200hz-250hz and won't overclock.

New QF app update

There is a new app update out that changes a few things

Seems like they will be sending notifications when their is planned system maintenance?

The unsupported WiFi part seems to be for bridge mode. So if in bridge mode none of the settings work anymore. Which makes sense, as they didn't do anything in bridge mode anyhow. Speed test and reboot still work fine.

Also that disclaimer is new I think.
