Howdy y'all!
It's third hotfix time!
You can expect a patch with lotta bugfixing, balance improvements and some (good) system changes during the next week!
IMPROVED SAVING SYSTEM
Made lots of improvements on the saving system to try and prevent save corruptions
The game should no longer save if the progress somehow became corrupted
The game will no longer try to save while doing important operations that could crash the game, leading to a corrupted save
Auto backups are no longer stored on Steam Cloud, so you can’t lose them anymore if you use Family Sharing on Steam
User settings are no longer stored on Steam cloud, which mean you can now have custom user settings for Steam Deck and different user settings on PC/other computers
Fixed a shader crash that could happen on Far Far North
JOKERS
Weaklink: buffed from max. 1 to max. 2
Run and Gun: buffed from Prime (3) to Rare (2)
The Gamba Machine now displays the odds
Fatal Errors happening after multiple hours of playing the game
Fatal Errors on launch
Possible memory leak issues when playing for several hours
ROG Ally UI not working properly
Many more little bugs that will be fixed as soon as possible! Keep reporting issues if it’s not fixed in the new update!
Deadeye: this is not a bug, but due to many feedbacks we will be adjusting it so it’s not as oppressive
If you have Fatal Errors or are unable to launch the game, please take a look at this list of solutions.
