Hey everyone,
The PTB (Public Test Branch) is opening its doors, once again. And this time, with something a lot of players are expecting... multiplayer
Highlights
Multiplayer: It is the first time we are trying MP with the community, so please have that in mind if you encounter desyncs ⚠
Zone of Control (ZoC): We got your feedback regarding units rushing to the backline (causing frustrations) and your request for ZoC. We make some tweaks to the classic ZoC in a way that melee restricts movement, but you can still move around during the battle > Now, units moving when in melee will spend 2 movement points instead of 1 (not applied to flying units)
Tweaks to Victory Conditions
Additional AI improvements
New main HUD: this is something we shared in the "next steps for UI/UX"
For those who want to read the detailed patch notes, it's HERE!
How to access the PTB via Steam
Open the Steam client.
Go to your Steam Library.
Look for “Endless Legend 2”
Right-click on your Library entry and go to Properties.
Select Betas > Enter "multiplayerbeta2511" and click on the popup that appears belowSelect Betas > and select “Public-Test-Branch"
Restart Steam if you can't see the Beta options in the dropdown menu
Once you’ve clicked on this entry, the game will start the update. If you want to go back to the base game, repeat the process but on the “betas” section select “None”
When the installation is complete, the Public Test Branch is ready to launch!
Click “Play” like you would with any other game!
About Save Compatibility
🚨 Players will need to create a "New Game" on the PTB 🚨
We are solving a compatibility issue that prevents players from continuing their games from the "Into Battle Update"
The Public Test Branch uses the same place to store the save files, which implies 2 things:
If you start a game on the PTB you won’t be able to continue the game in the “default” game.
If you start a game on the PTB you will be able to keep that game once the update is released.
Summary > You cannot use a save used on PTB on the default game.
How can I give feedback?
We need your feedback! The primary purpose of the Public Test Branch is to gather your feedback on new content, changes, and balancing tweaks we plan to implement in the game. Since this is a test environment, expect unfinished content and possible bugs.
Our main focus this time is multiplayer, and we’d love to hear your thoughts on the changes to the new HUD.
We’ve set up a dedicated forum on Amplifiers to let you voice your opinion, which you can find 👇
Thank you for helping us make Endless Legend 2 the best it can be!
