Patch 1.11 - All You Need To Know
I'm happy to announce that the first official patch for CONTASION 2 will be available for you on the 21st May 2016.
What's fixed?
We've listened to you and have fixed almost everything listed in just under a month. We hot-patched many bugs on the first week after the release, but now here is a permanent fix.
Crashing Issues
Due to CONTASION 2's Sound Engine being unsupported by DirectX, players who are running on an operating system newer than Windows 7 may experience crashes just minutes after starting the game. This is caused by the heavy use of sound effects in the game.
How to fix
1) Locate the 'Contasion 2.exe' file
2) Right click 'Contasion 2.exe' and select Properties
3) Navigate to Compatibility
4) Select 'Run this program in compatibility mode for:'
5) Select either Windows 7 or XP (SP3)
We understand that this can be tedious but it's the quickest way to get playing.
Content coming after the patch
We're always adding to the City of Pliston and we're always altering instances in CONTASION 2, so you can expect more and more content to hit you very soon. We've had hundreds of requests and we'll be picking our favourites and ensuring that these are added in the Update 1.2
