Hello warriors!
This week’s patch notes are a summary of all changes which were applied today and over the last few days in several smaller updates. We focused on improving the first experience and quality of life in various systems. For instance, every guild province gives you access to the best crafting workshops now and you can build the recently introduced inns in your guild castles now!
Also, we have experienced a decent population boost over the last few days thanks to the Steam sale! We are happy to invite every new player in the Gloria Victis world. Unfortunately, we discovered that several players have been affected by technical issues, but they have decided to leave Gloria Victis a negative review rather than reach us to get help. If you’re a new or returning player and you would encounter any issue preventing you from playing – namely the bug related to missing VC Redistributable packages, which leads to the infinite characters loading – please read this topic, which contains the most common problems and solutions to them. If the listed solutions wouldn't help anyway, please send us the description of your problem attaching the output_log.txt file, which can be found at C:\Users\user_name\AppData\LocalLow\Black Eye Games Sp z o o_\Gloria Victis to [email protected] and give us a chance to help you!
Once again – we’re happy to see new players in Gloria Victis, and we hope you’ll love playing it as much as we do love developing this unique project!
See you in battle!
Changelog v.0.8.8.8.3
