Issue #2 "Digging Deeper" will be coming next week

Post by Chrisax »

Issue #2 has been postponed again, to next week, due to a major exploit found (game-breaking level although the content works fine on test server).

Actually Issue #2 was originally a very ambitious and big patch, but, now, it also contains things that were not planned to be released so fast, like the changes to characters aspects due to high demand about this. It made the work harder. An issue 2 and a "2 and a half" could have worked better. Well, it's done now, so let's wait.

As mentioned yesterday, there was an issue found that could have led to a severe exploit that we want to fix before "Issue #2 - Digging Deeper" is deployed to the live servers. Unfortunately, it will take us some more time to make sure the issue is removed and the new version has been thoroughly tested.

We will keep on working over the weekend to fix the remaining issue and make sure that the final version will be ready for the live servers next week. As soon as all the details are available, we will announce the downtime for the update over the usual channels early next week.

We are as eager to get “Issue #2” to the live servers as much as you guys probably are. But we need to make sure that the version is ready and doesn’t contain any severe issues before it’s deployed to the Live servers. We apologize for the delay and thank you for your patience and understanding.


In the meantime, check out this preview video for Issue #2 where Lead Content Designer Joel Bylos shows what the update will have in store.

So much inane drama on their forums about this delay. I guess they really put themselves into this situation since they justified the monthly charge and paid shop by promising monthly content updates.

That will be even harder (or the content will be smaller) given the loss of many staff.
