IMPORTANT: How to try the beta branch?
Steps to try out the beta branch of the game:
- In your game library right click on "Rogue Empire -> Properties"
- In properties select the "Betas" tab
- On the drop down select the version: beta - Beta testing for next release
This branch has logs enabled to be more verbose so that I get more info from you guys when you sent them to me (this might make it a little more annoying if you get an error).
New features:
- Added swap actions capabilities to the action bar.
- Separated resistance into sub categories and re balanced it.
- Added resistance gear.
- Upgraded food system and balanced game accordingly. More info Here.
- Added randomize race and class buttons when starting a new game.
- Shape shifted druids now have unique attack animations.
Bug Fixes:
- I think I fixed all issues with the action bar.
- Improved inventory performance.
- Fixed beta build bug where levels would regenerate under certain conditions.
- Fixed bug where enemies would not attack the character if on an open chest
Balance changes:
- Balance: With the new resistance gear, none physical resistance rating growth by attributes was reduced by 75%.
- Balance: Warrior's Focus blow miss chance has been increased slightly.
- Balance: Enemies got theirs hit points increased by 20%-30% and their regeneration decreased by 50%
- Balance: Item drop rate increased by ~15%.
- Balance: Low tier enemies now upgrade their weapons (doing more damage) after certain amount of levels when they appear on later dungeons.
- Balance: Assassin's stealth is now weight dependent instead of armor mitigation dependent. This is triggered after going over the 70% armor ratio. The idea is give the chance make a heavy armored assassin but with less consumables because of weight vs a less armored assassin with more consumables/situational tricks.
Other changes:
- Renamed keys to reflect what they open.
- Movement should be a little smother.
Happy dungeon crawling!
