Small hotfix patch for 'Something in the air" quest
Howdy Builders,
We've just squashed a bothersome bug in the 'Something in the Air' quest that caused it to get stuck, endlessly waiting for the next day.
Your feedback is crucial, so keep it coming as we collaborate to make Sandrock even more fantastic!
The Unstoppable March
Howdy Builders,
Can't believe it's been two weeks since Sandrock hit the scene. Your feedback's been epic, helping us smash bugs and level up the game. Big thanks for that! And we hope our continue update will make your Sandrock journey better!
Here's the quick update:
Maintenance Patch
First, we're fast-tracking a maintenance patch originally set for month-end to next week, tackling 200+ issues. It's tackling over 200 issues, fixing up the majority of known bugs. Currently in QA testing, so keep an eye out for that sweet update. Additionally, thanks to your valuable suggestion about allowing uploads for problematic saves in game. Due to some tech constraints, direct save uploads aren't possible. However, we've got you covered with a player log upload option for issue analysis! We've also fixed a narrative conflict issue during scene switches. When switching scenes with multiple storylines, only one would play at a time, potentially causing you to miss out. Now, the game provides a prompt in such situations, guiding players to re-enter the scene to trigger additional storylines and tasks. In summary, next week's patch is your ticket to a smoother ride. Upgrade and level up that gaming experience!
Next Content Update
Hotfixing is just a slice of the pie this week; we're also gearing up for some exciting content updates. In the next version, expect a bunch of fresh weapons (big thanks to Kickstarter backers for the killer designs, some are seriously one-of-a-kind) and new hairstyles. Plus, we're throwing in two brand-new side quests (again, hats off to our awesome Kickstarter backers for their creative input). But that's not all—we're spicing up Catori's World by making 1-2 attractions playable, giving you cool new spots to hang out or go on dates. And in response to your requests, we're bringing in post-marriage content, featuring a new questline and sweet activities like partners holding kids. For all the juicy details on this content update, keep an eye on our upcoming development logs. We'll be dishing out more information as it comes. Cross your fingers, because we're aiming to unwrap this update before Christmas. While unexpected hiccups might pop up, we're giving it our all to stay on track.
Lastly, we've separated our DLCs from the Deluxe bundle. Now you can pick up the specific content you like!
That'd be everything we're working on for this week, and thank you so much your support on this project. We apologize for the current issues and are deeply sad about all the comments from players who have had trouble enjoying this game. What we can do it is to spend the next couple of weeks trying our best to polish the game, and we hope players could believe in us.
We appreciate all the support from the community and would love to get the support from you. If you like this game and believe in us that we can make it better, please help us by sharing the words of our game to your friends, colleagues and family.
Once again, we're eager to hear from your. Singleplayer or Multiplayer Surveys are eagerly awaiting your thoughts. Your valuable insights will help us improve future journeys. Please take a moment to fill them out.
