changedPROGRESSION GRINDThe original intent for 1.0 was to rebalance the gold costs to make both short and long term progression more worthwhile. However, we see we missed the mark and are aware of the grind. We are currently looking into rebalancing the economy, and have made preliminary changes in the most recent patch that we feel put it closer to an ideal state. We are still actively looking for feedback and will make further changes if needed.
changedCRASHESWe’re looking into multiple performance and technical issues that cause crashes.
changedCRASHESWe've heard reports from players that playing in Fullscreen resolves the crashes for most players. To enable Full Screen, go to Options in-game -> Video -> Display Mode. This might be a temporary workaround for you while we figure out how to solve these crashes.
changedCRASHESIf you have experienced crashes, we’d really appreciate it if you could send your crash dump files to support@boltblastergames.com .

LOBBY CONNECTION ISSUES

We've heard reports from other players that the following solutions might work solving the issue:

  • Make sure your Windows time and time zone are synchronizeSteam post image

  • Try running Cloudflare Warp

  • Some players have a proxy server locally that might mess with online connection. You can check and remove it by running the following steps:

  • In CMD:

    • netsh winhttp show proxy

    • If you see something like:

    • Proxy Server(s): 127.0.0.1:xxxx - that's the problem

    • Reset proxy

    • netsh winhttp reset proxy

In the meantime, we’re looking into fixing these issues.

NEW MUSIC

We’re aware that a lot of fans of the old soundtrack would love to have it back, and we are looking into options to make these available again in some way, however, this might take some time.

OBJECTIVES

There’s a lot of improvements being worked on right now for objectives like the Mana Beasts and Spell Cores. These are currently planned for the next content update, so please be patient with us, as we’ll share more info on post-1.0 soon.

ACHIEVEMENT RESETS

The achievements disappearing was a migration issue that has already been fixed in the latest patch. However, if you still have any problems please reach out to us: support@boltblastergames.com

BIG HEAD SKINS

Some people that were qualified to get the EA exclusive Big Head skins didn’t get them, but this has also been addressed in the latest patch. Please contact us if you had the game during Early Access but still don’t have them: support@boltblastergames.com
