The latest Grounded patch is releasing now with plenty of fixes
Source: Obsidian Entertainment
Grounded players just got a major injection of fresh content and features with the Hot and Hazy Update, and Obsidian Entertainment is still working hard to ensure that the recent release is stable and polished. An earlier Grounded patch is now being followed by Grounded patch update 0.11.4, which includes new fixes for players.
Grass planks and weed stems that have been cut down but not secured to a storage pallet will now disappear from the world faster, several crashing issues have been patched, and other tweaks are included in this latest patch update. Grounded’s early access continues to evolve over time with new content, followed quickly by updates to fix any lingering issues or problems.
While Grounded isn’t fully released yet, it’s already one of the best Xbox games for fans of survival and quirky humor. Obsidian apparently still has a lot of plans for what to add to Grounded in the future, ahead of a future public release.

Razer Kiyo X review: Defeat bad lighting with the Kiyo X
The Razer Kiyo X is the first webcam from the firm that I’ve used, and like many other Razer products, I find myself converted. This fairly affordable 1080p shooter is a great option for content creation and home office use.
