Update 0.73.1 - mostly fixes and experimental 4K changes
Hey guys!
This update is almost entirely a bug fix, taking care of all recent issues, as well as a few older ones. I've included some experimental scaling for those of you who play on 4K, as with some setups the game would run very, very poorly in this resolution. The scaling is on by default, and you have to tick "True 4K" in the Video settings to get the actual full 4K render, or it'll just upscale. However if you had problems with 4K before, don't tick that!
Please let me know how it works, as I don't have a 4K monitor to properly test it myself. :c
I'm also making progress on the Linux build.. I've gotten as far as it starts.. and freezes for seemingly no reason. I'm planning some public tests soon, and will have more info on that later!
Anyway, that's all for now.
Thanks for all reports and support!
Have a good weekend!
Update 0.73.1:
Additions:
Added an option to render in true 4K (default is now off - it used to always be on when having a 4K monitor, but it can lead to problems such as slowdowns, fps drops, and visual errors)
Fixes:
Fixed inconsistent wording on various sources of % thorns
Fixed Star Fall (Templar) not indicating duration
Fixed Blaze (Templar) not correctly calculating damage
Note:Due to the changes made to Blaze, the Ultimate skill Fiery Blaze no longer works, so it has been temporarily(?) removed
Fixed issue with skill ranges being incorrectly written out because of a rounding issue when the skills had multiple range indications
Fixed quest "Chasing Mystery" not always updating properly
Fixed some quest typos
Added a double check to quest objectives in multiplayer as they sometimes will only progress for one player (let me know if any newly obtained quests still get stuck)
Added a retroactive check that will hopefully unstuck any previously bugged quests that weren't able to complete (also let me know if you have any quests with a 1/1 objective remaining after this update)
Fixed issue causing some doors and locks to remain locked even after an objective was met under certain circumstances
Fixed potential crash and state issue with Eazima
Fixed Ruh-Falkas children being able to push her into awkward locations causing some animation issues
Fixed issue which may on rare occasions clone your satellite enchants
Update 0.73.0 - New Templar sets and skill updates, community suggestions, fixes, and more!
Hey guys!
This update is very significant if you play Templar, as all sets and associated skills have been updated, and she's even got a brand new set! I've also put in some general tweaks and additions, as well as a few community suggestions, so there should be something for everyone in this update.
As always, I've also fixed a bunch of issues you guys have reported (thanks!), but lately I've been getting a lot of reports on things that are difficult to verify and find. Because of this, the known issues list is growing pretty large so I'm taking the next week or so to focus entirely on fixing bugs before continuing with the Warden sets & skills.
After the Warden update, only the Warlock remain, and after his rework I'll do a final pass over all classes and make some fine tuning based on your feedback. I'll also be taking a look at the Ultimate skills during this final pass.
Meanwhile, we (me and Jericho, the artist) have also begun work on Act 5, as well as a few other, secret things. As you may know I tend to work on everything at the same time :-). Act 5 will be the final act before 1.0 release, and it will also be the most cool, fun, and quite possibly largest. If you've been a part of the Chronicon community for a while you know the acts take a long time to do, so please be patient as we meticulously work our way forwards!
Anyway, let me know if you have any issues with the update, be it technical or design, and I'll get right on that.
Have a good weekend!

Update 0.71.0 - Holiday Event, Berserker set & skill updates, and more!
Hey guys!
Happy holidays everyone!
This will be the last update of 2017. It features a neat little holiday event, available for characters level 10 and up, from which you can get some time limited equipment and other things. Mostly just for fun but it'll probably help your characters who aren't max level yet!
In addition to that this update also rolls out the first iteration of the updated sets and passive abilities. First out is the Berserker, with 8 fresh sets and a bunch of skill changes. The set updates are also retroactive so if you already have them you don't have to grind up the new versions.
Now, I know some of you have voiced concerns that because of these updated and very good sets, the game will shift and become heavily set oriented for end-game. This is partially true, as it will lean in favor of sets until near launch where I will be introducing more end-game features to allow deeper builds and itemization. So if sets don't float your boat, hang in there!
In addition to that I've made a few adjustments to progression and difficulty scaling of Anomalies, a few QoL improvements here and there, and a ton of bug fixes.
2017 has been a great year for both me and the Chronicon community, and I remain very thankful and proud of what we've accomplished together.
Thank you for the hundreds, if not thousands, of bug reports, thoughts, suggestions and feedback you've sent me over the year. The next year I am aiming for 1.0 release and I hope you'll all be along for the ride!
That's all for this time, and unless I broke something (for which I will entirely blame Tinka), we'll see each other again in the next year. Exciting times ahead!
