Talos over at Adventurine was kind enough to release information on today’s patch along with some info for upcoming game sales for those of you still waiting for your copy. The patch notes here have been categorized a little better for easier reading, enjoy!
Concerning client sales on Monday time has changed to 6PM GMT for the store to open up.
Something billing related: Some people are reporting messages about getting charged again for the Darkfall Client. This is an erroneous message that got triggered while billing requests were being processed and delayed transactions are going through for players who had not been billed properly and could not access the subscription page to get a subscription. If you were actually charged for the Darkfall client recently, it’s because your charge just went through, and you hadn’t been charged properly before. In the unlikely event that a double charge is initiated for whatever reason, the transaction is canceled within 24 hours.
Also about the extra days we gave out, they will be applied to all accounts properly, whether you’re seeing the correct amount of days remaining in account management or not. This will be updated correctly.
About siege mechanics: A few days ago a siege ended without the expected result. We investigated why this happened and discovered a combination of unrelated errors were responsible. Everything associated with this has been corrected so it won’t happen again. We want to thank everyone for their feedback on this incident.
We are investigating reports of client crashes during sieges. These aren’t server related so it’s harder to pinpoint the source of each crash. If you experience a client crash during a siege, please send us an error report. In order to do this, go to where your Darkfall folder is located and run SFErrorReport.exe (example: Program Files > Darkfall> SFErrorReport.exe.). Follow the simple instructions and send the error report. It’s important that you do this before you re-enter the game after the crash.
This is a significant patch today as you can see by the patch notes below and the size of the update. There are a whole lot more fixes in than listed, mostly items which corrected existing bugs. We already have a lot more enhancements in production for the subsequent patches. Our entire team is working continuously as always to improve the game.
