Newest Release

This is a major change that reenables about 10 different drafting physics/parameters. It was broken a couple of days ago right before release.

This is why there was seemingly no drag outside draft.

After digging through the code all day, this has been fixed & patched as of 5 mins ago. Everything will feel more dynamic and realistic now.

• Fixed a combat desync bug.
  
• The governor icon is no longer drawn on top of the plague icon in the map.
  
• Fixed fleet ship list layout for long ships with medals.
  
• Gust of Wind and Sudden Storm are now weaker at the edges of the map, making them less able to smash ships together.

As previously noted, if you have balance feedback on heroes or abilities, do let me know.

- added a hud based capture bar in warpath to show your teams most relevant point capture progress
- created a client rotation compensation system for melee to help improve the ‘feel’ of melee attack connections
- implemented a feature to allow admins of a server (or hosts) to execute select cvars via the in-game chatbox using an “!” followed by the command i.e. “!mp.botquota 10”
- added a new cvar ‘goal.defertobot’ to allow bots to attempt to complete the objective in holdout regardless of if a human player is alive
- slightly increased cone for client hitscan rotation compensation
- slightly reduced the screen footprint and translucency of world based health/capture bars
- lowered the max connections on PvP in-game hosted servers to 10, with a new system to still allow bots to fill up to 16 players (this still allows for full self hosted 8v8 matches, while lowering the risk of network issues from too many clients – dedicated servers are unaffected)
- prevented cloak knights from being able to attack whilst in the process of engaging the cloak
- fixed a rare issue where bots could be fixated on attempting to buy a no-longer accessible CP building if they were attempting to buy it as sudden death kicked in

Good news, Hunters!

A hotfix is now live for both of the bugs that were causing some of you to lose progress. Currently, there were two bugs that are causing this loss:

1. Players receive an error after each match and lose the progress of that match due to a Backend issue that duplicates information.
   
2. The second bug is caused by connection instability, which causes the game to stop sending information to the server. After this error occurs, the player loses all the progress that would have been made after it happened.

We were able to identify the source of both problems and a fix has been implemented.

Thank you for your unwavering patience, and as always, Happy Hunting!

Patch 1.3 is now available ! It incorporates a lot of the feedback we've received in trade shows, which has enabled us to fine-tune the project and bring you a host of new features:

• New game interface
• Overhauled point & click mechanics: now you can explore the scenery on your own to find points of interest. If you need to, the help button will tell you where they are.
• Checkpoint system: to avoid having to restart the entire game in the event of a game over. When you enter a new setting, a checkpoint is automatically activated.
• The game is fully accessible to blind people and partially sighted.
• Added a button at the end of the Prologue to direct you to the Steam page for the full game, and why not add it to your wishlist? ːsteamhappyː

We're also working on the development of a one-hour demo that will tell the story of Leily Stirner's encounter with the Master Engineer's daughter...

Full steam ahead!

Hey guys.

It turns out we missed a bit of code in the loot overhaul that bugged out a lot of our unique chests in the game. We fixed the issue, but couldn't find a great way to reverse the problem for anyone who may have missed out on important items thanks to it. Feel free to reach out on Discord if you missed an important quest item and we'll see what we can do on a case by case basis.

Thanks for your understanding. Here are the patch notes:

1.6.2 Patch

Improved:

• Whistle no longer displays any XP bar on HUD when equipped
  
• Wasps no longer poison you. Just the queen.
  
• Secret recipe no longer given away by particle effects
  
• Skills/Classes page in the journal now gives more information about which weapons govern which class and a description for each class and skill
  
• Stone Golem got better loot

Fixed:

• Multiplayer joining issue that would cause the game to hang for a long time
  
• Sen now vanishes properly from Castaway Rock so you can’t restart his quest accidentally
  
• Fixed a bunch of issues with unique chests that was causing them to drop the wrong items or no items at all
  
• Fixed an issue with drop rates for all chests globally
  
• Masks can no be properly placed in your collections
  
• Queen Bee now drops her stinger
  
• Fixed floating Kickstarter Fox pet
  
• Earthshard Shield no longer gives mana on equip
  
• Wild Seeds are now random when placed and won’t always spawn the same plant when placed
  
• Meteors drop appropriate loot now
  
• Astral Wolves no longer stay spawned when leaving the Astral Realm leading to a build up of wolves over time.
  
• Removed a sneaky debug arrow from Icicle Storm spell effect

• Added a menu button

Removed the previous limit of 9 maximum health points. Now, players can have unlimited maximum health points, but displaying too many may cause issues. To the Maitreya players who took advantage of this, I apologize for the oversight.

Spirit abilities no longer require points to unlock and are now placed in the first position. After internal discussions, it was unanimously agreed that Spirit abilities are more enjoyable and suitable for new players, hence the change.

Fixed the bug where obstacles were lacking shadows.

Made several adjustments to the UI for improved user experience.
