Hello everyone！

Potions: A Curious Tale is now participating in the Lunar New Year Festival 2024. Hope you can enjoy our demo!

+Added Linear Difficulty System
Mobs now have tiers that increase their stats. They will gradually grow higher and higher in tier as the player progresses further and further into the dungeon.

+New Philosophy
We are combining the Modular System with a new Testing System. Each level will be constructed in an Act structure. This will allow us to test the level design with greater vigour

+Other minor changes and improvements

The following modifications were made:

• Loosened detection when making eye contact with enemies, so that they do not react unless you raise your face to a certain degree.
  
• Modified the hints for the first riddle in the second stage to be more clear.
  
• Added hints to the third stage and changed the behavior patterns of roaming NPCs to make it easier to conquer.
  
• Eased the difficulty level of the fourth stage's final escape scene.

Added the function to view hints from the options menu during the game.
This feature is not limited to solving riddles, but allows you to check for hints on how to progress.

• Fixed a bug that occurred in some operating environments in some European countries, where the number of seconds to manage event progression was not being read correctly.
  
• Fixed a bug in the third stage where doors would automatically open on retry depending on the position found by the prowler, making it easier for the prowler to find the door.
  
• Fixed a bug that when language settings were changed during the game, the changes were not reflected in some UI languages.

etc.

本次更新修改了以下问题：
1，菜单栏位置由右下移至右上；
2：修复了字体大小不统一的bug；
3：修改了部分错误文本。
如若发现有其他问题，欢迎及时向作者反馈。

- FreeStyle2 Team

It includes a bunch of fixes and several changes following your feedback.

We are also introducing the new Season: Crystal Wilds! :Puff_Hi5R:

• Two new cards: Resonating Construct and Spire Stag and their Avatar icons
  
• The new Spire Stag Emote
  
• The Mordar, Mancer of the Dead, NEW legendary skin
  
• The Legendary skin: “Rave Party Girl Milloween”
  
• 35 power tokens
  
• 325 shards
  
• 7000 golds
  
• 3 Legendary cards
  
• 4 Supreme cards
  
• 5 rare cards
  
• And much more..!

Our efforts are going 100% towards improving the experience on PC and Xbox. With 2.1 we have fixed 100+ bugs/other improvements based on your feedback. Patch notes have been published here: ⁠🔮game-updates⁠
Our focus in the near future (after 2.1 patch) is towards the following:

• Crashes and disconnects: We are still getting reports on crashes and disconnects. If you are experiencing these issues, please grab a member of the Minion Masters team and help us locate the issue. It would be a huge help to us!
  
• Issues with DLCs and purchases.
  
• Re-enabling Chat.
  
• Gameplay logic, VFX, and SFX issues.
  
• Improvement to friends list and lobby systems.
  
• Improvements to bots in terms of difficulty and frequency. We aim to make them more fun to play against, but also reduce the frequency at which players face bots.
  
• Adding more UX and Quality of Life improvements. We added a lot of that in 2.1, and more is coming in 2.2. Keep tuning in to the patch notes for more information.

These are some of the most asked questions we’ve seen on Discord. I’ll address them here:

We underestimated the amount of fixes and changes we would have to make when we launched Minion Masters 2.0 Prologue, so for now, we prefer to stay agile and focus on improving the core experience before committing to making new features. However, we’ll keep sharing frequent updates about our next focuses like this one.
We had to take Xbox down for an extended time because we failed to live up to some Xbox requirements. We are now fully compliant with all requirements, and we have no reason to believe that something like this will ever happen again.
Our focus is primarily on optimizing the Xbox and PC experience. Mobile is still very much in the pipeline, though. We can give an update soon, but not quite yet!
With 2.0 we introduced new drafting rules, where each Master has access to different factions. We have heard your feedback on this new rule and decided to revert it for patch 2.2. We think the concept of draft restrictions has merit though, so we might experiment more with this in the future.

❤️ from Yesterfox and the rest of the Minion Masters team

Hello everyone！

Warlords Battle Simulator is now participating in the Lunar New Year Festival 2024. Please wishlist our game!

Year 5 Season 3: Vanguard takes Division Agents back to the streets of New York to investigate the disappearance of Agent Kelso. In addition to the new gear and continuation of the story, players will get their hands on the comprehensive health updates done as the result of Project Resolve.

• Season 3: Vanguard Manhunt
  
• Season 3: Vanguard Calendar
  
• Gear, Weapons & Talents
  
• Descent
  
• Apparel Event
  
• Season Pass

After Division Agents resecured stability in the White House, Agent Kelso returned to New York to ensure the Haven settlement was also secure. But while Agents were rescuing the civilians abducted by the Black Tusk, Kelso had gone missing. Meanwhile, The Division now faces the harsh reality that Hunters are among them, raising doubt and suspicion in both the White House and Castle settlements. Agents must now find Kelso, but as they retrace her steps, more truths will be uncovered, reopening some old wounds.



Get ready to gear up and arm yourself with the new weapons and gear in Year 5 Season 3! This features two new Named Weapons, two new Named Gear pieces, a bunch of new Talents, plus a Gear Set and a Brand Set. Exotic-wise, you've got one Exotic gear piece and two Exotic weapons - one of them exclusively available in Descent game mode.





*Current in-game description is incorrect and will be changed with TU20.1
Read more here.

• Vindicator Exotic Rifle is available in the NSA store.

When the event is active, you can earn Apparel Cache keys in game by levelling up your watch levels and unlocking the different items through caches.  Apparel Event keys for the Apparel Caches can be earned from the following sources: 1 free key granted to all players, SHD Levelling - one key every four SHD levels, direct purchase with Premium Credits, and, if you are a Year 5 Season 2 Premium Pass owner, you’ll be granted 3 extra keys.


Veiled Tactics Apparel Event offers a collection of four new outfits for you to acquire, with an additional fifth outfit as a completion reward. The event revolves around the theme of Camouflage, catering to those Agents who appreciate the art of concealing oneself.



Last Resort Apparel Event returns from Year 2 Season 3: Concealed Agenda, offering Agents another opportunity to gather gear and outfits based on the enemy factions of NYC.




The optional Season Pass is available for 1000 Premium Credits ($9.99 or your regional equivalent) in the in-game store, granting additional access to a Menpo outfit and a mask. Year 5 Season 3: Vanguard is available to all The Division® 2 Warlords of New York owners and Ubisoft+ subscribers.



In addition, players with the Season Pass can gain access to the following premium track rewards:

• 9 weapon skins
  
• 10 gear dyes
  
• 2 new emotes
  
• 2 vanity outfits
  
• 1 face mask

In addition, new unique cosmetic bundles will be regularly added to the store. This time players will get the looks of Keener's squad of rogue agents from Warlords or New York. Each one will be made available as a unique outfit: Dragov, Conley, Kajika, Parnell, and rogue number one - Aaron Keener himself.

You can also track some of the top-level investigations being conducted by the team over on our Known Issues Board.

Read a full article that contains additional information about Project Resolve here.

Good luck out there!

Updates:

• Fixed UI MultiInput Issue. Replaced Modals with Animated windows instead.
  
• Updated E1M2 to be playable until the Bridge Arena
  
• Added E1M3 for playtesting
  
• Phone UI is now buggier but thats fine let that be a problem for our future selves
  
• Fixed major bug with Bulldozers where they just hang in the air forever
  
• Replaced interactibles with a podium switch. Using that for everything now.
  
• E1M1 wallrunning tutorial section made easier.
  
• Minor bugfixes.

Known Issue:

• Loading E1M2, then another level, then back to E1M2 causes some insane untraceable bug. Bear with us and dont do that
  
• In E1M2, Collision is missing in certain areas. While we probably know of it, we'd appreciate you guys sharing the locations for us as well!
  
• Rebinding keys might be inconsistent and the UI might not work reliably. Its because we want to add controller mappings as well and we'll probably have to rewrite the whole system.

Keep in mind that E1M2 and E1M3 while uploaded, are still under development and will look and even feel incomplete. That is to be expected. E1M1 however should feel largely complete with only a few minor tweaks required.

If there are major flaws in the level design, environment art, or bugs. Let us know in the discord server:
https://discord.gg/KDWrXKtbQq
Or in the feedback form within the game!
