- "Bad loads" should no longer happen for any players. "Loading..." and the loading bar should now disappear and all players should appear. - Rooms from other regions will no longer appear after switching regions. - In-game voice chat should enable now
Today we bring a larger patch to MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries and the DLC "Heroes of the Inner Sphere". A few of the highlights are as follows:
GENERAL
Added an option to hide the invite code so Content Creators can livestream without concern. Fixed a bug that made it so players cannot access co-op if their contact list becomes corrupted. Fixed a bug where the Cold Storage is empty when importing an old Campaign save to New Career. Fixed an issue where custom Mod Content was not being loaded by the game. Prior to this mods could only replace/substitute existing game assets.
In addition to these updates, there are also over 100 more updates and fixes, including:
Various crash fixes. Various UI fixes. Various localization fixes. Various minor bug fixes
We hope you continue to enjoy MW5Mercs, and as always if you have any technical issues or bugs to report, be sure to email support@mw5mercs.com or contact us in the MechWarrior Discord Server in the appropriate channels.
With our October 2021 update, we will be removing MapleTV from MapleStory. MapleTV served as a promotional feature in the past, however, it is no longer in use and has become more of an inconvenience to players by overlapping with objects and portals in maps. Thus, MapleTV will be removed from major town maps, such as Henesys, after the October 2021 update.
The following MapleTV-related items will no longer be available for purchase in the Cash Shop after the June 9 maintenance:
Next Fest is almost here so I'm releasing my Alpha Demo to get any last minute feedback before Next Fest.
What's in the Demo?
The demo has a single system to explore with several non combat encounters and four combat encounters. Currently there's no tutorial, only hints in the left side of the screen but if you played games like XCOM this game should be easy to understand. Many special features like the "Procedural Campaign", "Dynamic Rivals" and "Loyalty and Infamy mechanics" are not active in the demo but I hope to get them ready for Early Access.
About Next Fest
Next Fest is the new name of the Steam Games Festival and I decided to participate so I could promote Void Marauders. I'm a one man team with no publisher so it's hard to get noticed but I'm working hard to deliver a good game. Full disclosure: I won't be making a livestream for Next Fest because frankly I have no experience doing that so I rather spare you the bad experience of listening to my thick chilean accent and bad mic while I play the demo. I prefer that you make your own opinion by trying the demo.
What's Next?
I hope to get some feedback for the demo and if there's any problems fix them before the festival but I will also use any feedback to guide my last development stage before I release the game in Early Access. I have a vision for the game but I will be listening and open to any changes if the community is vocal enough about them.
