changedWe just finished a patch which is not tested yet. As soon as this is done, we will update Rogue Stormers. For those who cannot wait we uploaded the patched version to the public beta. You can play it with your leveled characters and all earned perks will end up in the live version. Attention: You will only be able to play the multiplayer with gamers playing the test-version also. The patch will bring a range of improvements which are listed below, but most important: WE FOUND THE REASON FOR THE RANDOM FPS-DROPS! It's a bit embarrassing we haven't discovered this earlier: An old item from the prototype phase, an exploding barrel, that was meant to be deleted everywhere still was existent. It was hiding there in a levelchunk-background, hungry for PC power, killing performance everytime it was loaded. Finally we fought back, hunted it down and banned it to the code-nirvana. Let us know about your experience with that! The other fixes:
fixedBug fixes:MP-client: Fixed arena spawner effect now on the correct position.
fixedBug fixes:MP-client: Fixed “start gold + keys not correct”.
fixedBug fixes:MP-client: Fixed syncing problems in online multiplayer.
fixedBug fixes:MP-client: Fixed SFX for different sources not playing correct or at all.
fixedBug fixes:Fixed shield emitter blocking projectiles of minions (drones can shot through your own shield now).
