Greetings Thieves,
This update focuses on resolving some of the reported bugs and improving the overall health and balance of the game. More content is already in the pipeline, but for now I believe it’s best to continue polishing the core gameplay experience and ensuring it feels as solid and fair as possible.
Gameplay:
Re-balanced Guard patrol paths on the following contracts: Golden Tides, Bone Museum, and Brewing Troubles. These contracts should now feel a little more forgiving, giving Players more breathing room to navigate areas where Guard patrols previously felt too punishing.
Decreased the alarm raised multiplier deduction from 0.2 to 0.15.
Increased the bonus objective completion multiplier to 0.6, ensuring there is always a worthwhile reward for completing the bonus objective.
Updated Dynamite’s equipment description to clearly state that it can be used on Locked Doors and Safes.
Bug fixes:
Fixed an issue where Players experiencing lag or bandwidth issues could miss their payout at the end of a contract.
Fixed an issue where the Indebted curse would not correctly deduct a Player’s payout at the end of a contract.
Fixed an issue where the Hexed curse could not be selected from the Contract Maker menu.
Fixed an issue where, in rare cases, a Player’s cursor could become stuck on screen when closing the Yuletide event notification menu.
Fixed an issue where some Players were unable to see active lobbies in the Lobby Browser from the Main Menu.
Fixed an issue where Steam Cloud saving would not correctly upload Player data or download it upon re-entering the game.
Fixed an issue where some Players entering the game for the first time would not receive the prompt to create their Thief.
As always if you have any feedback or bugs to report, you can do so right here in Steam's own discussions page. Alternatively if you’d like to connect with fellow thieves and report bugs on the official Discord server you can join today.
