Last week we saw v.2.0.5.122 hit the main branch for all Steam users and we saw some new features make their way into the game, such as:

• Storms now have a chance to re-spawn chests within your world.
• Settlements had been redesigned to feel more like Settlements instead of a sprawl.
• The new infamous Settlements mechanics (that has caused mass confusion for a lot of people).

So What's New This Week?!

In the spirit of keeping our promises to the community we'll be releasing a new patch on the Opt-In branch but please be warned that they isn't much in the way of improvements this week except we have added new art for the Event Dock. There is a possibility that there could be even more bugs this week. Such is the case with active development - it's not always a straight line of progress, sometimes it's a little bit more like two steps forward, one step back!

If you would like to play a more stable build we recommend that you opt-out this week and either continue playing with .122 or .165. However, if you're a fearless bug hunter then please do feel free to dive into v2.0.5.178 and report any new bugs and glitches you encounter.


BUG FIXES:

• Champion area of influence will move with the Champion.
• Mines will convert to Abodes in a Mining Settlement if destroyed by Finger of God.

KNOWN ISSUES:
For the full list of known issues feel free to read through our Known Issues thread.

• Click on the chest tutorial issue
Possibly the biggest issue players come across when starting a new game. We urge all players starting a new game not to click on the chest until the tutorial asks you to.
• Freeze upon quitting
The most consistently reported bug is that the game freezes upon quitting and has to be closed via the Task Manager. This is due to middleware issue and a workaround is being investigated.
• Maximum number of Monuments that can be placed is 36
When you get to a certain point in the game, you will start to notice that you can’t place any more Monuments and that it will still cost you Belief.

Community Concerns

We've noticed on the Steam forums that some players may be holding back their bug reports because of duplicates and that players do not email support@22cans.com because there is no way of knowing whether the bug has already been reported or not. We urge everyone to report bugs via the forums and the support e-mail - the more people who report a bug, the more complete an idea of the number of people being affected by it we get. This helps us prioritise which bugs get fixed first.

That about sums up this week's update. If you have any more questions please feel free to drop our support team a message at support@22cans.com.

Happy bug hunting!
