Hi everyone!
We hope you're all having fun playing Aeon Wars Tactics on our Open Test Server!
The team has been collecting your feedback from last month's playtest and working hard to improve the game.
You may have seen it, but we pushed a patch yesterday. This patch fixes a couple of issues some of you have experienced and brings some new features:
New Features
In-game tutorial system
Certain tutorials will pop up contextually based on the first time the player interacts with something new.
Access all tutorials via the [Escape] Settings menu. You can also turn off the automatic tutorials in this window.
Mission Briefings
Mission briefings will automatically pop up the first time the player enters an unplayed mission. Giving clear win conditions and a bit of flavour to the encounter.
Mission briefings are accessible at any time while in a match by clicking on the top left button named Objective.
Changes
Removed the 3D space Unit Card on hover inside the Army Builder
Upgraded the Unit Card tooltip inside the Army Builder and Play Area to pull more relevant stats about the unit
Bugfixes
Fixed an issue where Mechs equipped with AOEC primary weapons would target enemies outside of their Overwatch Cone
Fixed application of Skins and Chromas to specific Models - all models should now work with their available cosmetics
Fixed an issue where throwing multiple stun grenades back to back would cause the subsequent grenades to have no effect/animation
Fixed an issue where the above bug could also cause a crash
Fixed an issue where blending between specific animations while shooting with a grenade launcher would cause the model to scale up to the size of the map
Fixed blurriness in text inside the Collector Space
Since we have made a lot of changes, this patch will delete all previously saved games. It's time to try new army rosters!
Also, we have a very rare and specific crash in the game at the moment. If you can find it and share with us your log or a video of it, you'll earn the CRASH MASTER tag in our Discord! Hint to find it: "A Light Mekatron and three Demolishers walked into a bar..."
Keep on playing and giving us feedback through our online form or our Discord server.
We love to hear from you ❤️
