Hey RWBY Hunters! Hope you're enjoying all the new content?
We've been watching the forums, trying to log all the bugs as they are reported. Thanks to everyone who posted bug reports. Some are known issues, others are mysteries we're looking into, and others may be related to specific hardware specs. We're adding them all to our task list and will get them resolved as soon as we can!
RANK:
We've seen several bug reports about advancing your RANK. Seems to work fine for some, but not for others. So we've been digging into the issue and think we have a hotfix ready for you to try.
There's a new "Opt-In" beta available for those who can help us test it out. Just follow these instructions and you'll get the new HOTFIX #1.
1) Exit and Restart Steam
2) Right click RWBY:GE, select Properties.
3) Under the Betas tab, select "hotfix" from the dropdown menu.
4) The update should start downloading. Give it a test and let us know if you can RANK up now!
FYI - You will see a watermark on the lower-center of your screen that says HOTFIX. This will remind you that you're playing the hotfix version. Once we verify all is working properly with Ranks, we'll push these changes into the main branch of the game.
There seems to be some confusion on how you advance from Rank 0 to Rank 1. You MUST level up all 4 characters to Level 10 before you can advance in Rank. There are more challenges for ranking to higher levels. We'll write up a Ranking Guide and post that in the discussion forums.
Again, we're still working on the other bug reports, but we wanted to get the Ranking issue fixed ASAP!
Hope it all goes well. Good luck on the battlefields of Remnant! ːsteamhappyː
Cheers,
