Build 7.4 Patch Notes:
Note: This update is not 100% compatible with current save files.
Hey guys,
So first up, Dead Monarchy has a couple more days until the sale is over. This is another update in response to player feedback and brings more tweaks to the overworld map. This update will probably be the last update for a while as I would now like to spend my limited time on rebuilding Dead Monarchy. Obviously development hasn't stopped but there is a shift in things now. I'll still be on the forums, listening to player feedback but I won't be able to really act on them yet I will consider them when rebuilding.
Having said all that, there will still be forums posts and I will be posting official updates as I continue the next step in my development journey. The future is somewhat unpredictable now, I don't really know how long this rebuild will take as my financial income has dwindled but it is the right step forward and I know that so long as I'm alive I will get the job done.
The loss in financial income (day job) just translates to longer development times basically, it has nothing to do with IF the game will be completed but rather WHEN as I have now mostly secured all the custom art assets that I need, it's just a matter of time really as I alternate between working on art assets and then directly on the rebuilding process.
Lastly, I'd like to again thank everyone for their support and to the new players that have bought the game during the sales period. Also thanks to Blindseye and stcrispin for their reviews.
Changes:
- Sped up map movement speed by x3.
- You can now use the arrow keys to pan the camera whilst in combat and Right Ctrl and 0 (Num Pad) to rotate the camera. This also applies to the world map.
- Removed obsolete weapons from siege loot tables.
- Legendary equipment cost reduced to 24k.
- Monarch level reduced to level 50, more in line now with updated player levels.
- Vault UI now splits the party into Party/Garrison.
- Cost of herbs reduced to the same price as tools.
- Herbs now also restore Strength by +25.
- All starting companions now only have a -10 crowns daily upkeep.
- Condition now starts at 10 and increases up to 20.
EDIT: Added couple more things:
- Reduced end phase sound by 50%, shouldn't be as loud now.
- Take All button in battle loot menu is now right at the top.
- Changed "purchase" button to "hire" button in the recruitment menu.
Cheers,
Kevin.
