Patch 1.1.0b - Arrives Tomorrow, 12/16!
Greetings!
1.1.0b is almost here, and while the notes may not be very long there are some great fixes that make a lot of significant improvements to the game. We've got some additional fixes in the wings so stay tuned for more as we continue to work on enhancing content and improving stability!
1.1.0b will be going live Tuesday, 12/16. All North American servers will be brought down at 7AM EST with Oceanic servers to follow at 9AM EST. We expect all servers to be back up and running by 1PM EST.
As always stay tuned to the Herald for the latest news and updates and continue reading for the 1.1.0b Patch Notes...WAAAGH!!!
- We've
added additional messaging to the Inventory Overflow system introduced
in the 1.1a patch. This was
done to aid players
in understanding what the Inventory Overflow in fact does and how to
utilize
this new
feature.
- Fixed an issue that was
causing the Nordenwatch scenario to crash
intermittently.
- Fixed an issue
that would cause the wrong realm name to appear in the center-screen
Keep or Battle Objective capture message.
- Renown, experience, and
Influence rewards have been added for attacking and defending
Fortresses.
- Renown gains:
This patch includes a significant fix to the amount of Renown gained in
both open Realm vs. Realm combat and Scenarios. The intent of this
change is for players to gain Renown based on the differential between
a player's Rank and Renown Rank. The examples given below are based on
solo Realm vs. Realm confrontations without any sort of bonuses and
with both players being of the same Renown Rank (differences between
RRs also affect RPs
awarded):
- If a Rank
40/Renown Rank 1 solo kills a Rank 31/Renown Rank 1, the Rank 40 will
receive 206 Renown as a
reward.
- If
a Rank 40/Renown Rank 1 solo kills a Rank 18/Renown Rank 1, the Rank 40
will receive 70 Renown as a reward.
Notice that this is a larger reward than the Rank 40 would
receive with the previous system (51 and 5 respectively).
- To discourage exploitation of this
system, if a player is killed repeatedly in a short amount of time they
are worth less Renown each time due to the existing diminishing returns
system. Also, please keep in mind that the
difference between players' Renown Ranks will also affect the amount of
RP rewarded.
- Nordenwatch:
Reenabled access to this Tier 1 Empire vs. Chaos Scenario. Fixed an
issue with this Scenario that affected server
stability.
