Welcome back, fellow adventurers of the Sands of Salzaar! In the latest update for the game, V1.0.30, the developers have addressed several issues reported by the player community. This blog post will provide you with an extensive overview of the patch notes, bug fixes, and improvements introduced in this update.
Tournament Registration NPC Disappearance Issue:
One of the notable issues that has been resolved in this update is the disappearance of the Tournament registration NPC in Redstone City. Previously, players were experiencing frustration due to the absence of this crucial NPC. However, the developers have rectified this issue, ensuring that the Tournament sign-up NPC will no longer go missing, providing a smoother gameplay experience.
Xin Qi Ji's In-Game Model Anomaly:
Another issue that has been successfully addressed in this update is the anomaly with Xin Qi Ji's in-game model. Players were encountering odd lighting effects that affected the visual experience. With the V1.0.30 update, the developers have eliminated this anomaly, ensuring that Xin Qi Ji's model is rendered correctly, providing a more immersive gameplay environment.
Crashes and Freezes:
Several crash and freeze issues have also been resolved in this update. Previously, completing a game would sometimes lead to the client crashing unexpectedly, causing frustration for players. However, the developers have investigated and fixed the underlying cause of this issue. Now, players can enjoy a more stable gaming experience without worrying about sudden crashes or freezes upon completion of a game.
Tooltip Errors and In-Game Description Updates:
In their dedication to delivering an optimized gameplay experience, the developers have taken the time to address tooltip errors and update in-game descriptions. This ensures that players receive accurate information and have a clearer understanding of game mechanics and features. By providing precise tooltips and descriptions, players can make informed decisions, enhancing their overall gameplay strategy.
Ongoing Optimization Efforts:
The developers are actively working on optimization efforts to enhance the game's performance and address common issues reported by the community. They have identified two specific issues that will be prioritized in the upcoming updates: the "ESC return causing lag" and the "opening and closing animations causing crashes and freezes." These optimizations aim to provide a smoother gaming experience and reduce performance-related issues.
Future Focus: Overheating and Crashes:
Looking ahead, the developers have acknowledged the player community's concerns regarding overheating and crashes experienced during the later stages of the game. They understand that excessive save content and calculations contribute to these issues. To address this, the development team plans to implement underlying optimizations in subsequent updates. By streamlining the game's resource usage and reducing computational strain, they aim to mitigate the overheating and crashes, ensuring a more stable and enjoyable gameplay experience.
