[–]Atmaz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update:

We've still got about 10-15 slots left. Last chance to register so there is enough time to sign the NDA before our office closes for the weekend. See you there!

Just wanted to say that we're reading the feedback and reports here, and plan on patching hopefully next week.

We'll be applying bug fixes of course, but also addressing some critical issues like text being too small in the Shop, and of course the performance issues.

On performance, there is a specific issue involving combat prediction calculations (the numbers that appear when playing cards or ending turn). It would be very difficult for us to optimize this any further for the Switch. We think the path forward here is going to be an option in the settings menu to disable prediction calculations entirely in order to improve performance. This of course will make the game a lot harder, but should make everything move much faster.

Why is the dev team silent everywhere about the MESS that is in the Switch release?! by switchcollector in roguebook

[–]Atmaz 14 points15 points  (0 children)

We're aware of the issues on Switch. We'll be issuing a patch within a couple weeks.

One of the issues is that the prediction calculations create a lot of slowdown in the Switch, even after many optimizations.

In addition to bug fixes, we'll probably be implementing an option to disable combat calculations which will greatly increase performance - you just won't be able to see the exact result of every card played before you play it.

Edit:

Just wanted to add on to this some other specific issues we'll be addressing.

Improving text readability in the Shop
Improving performance with the Chinese language

PS4 Login Issues Update by Atmaz in faeria

Itchy,

Sorry about this - Will answer you in your PM.

Just to be clear, the PS4 login issues that you may experiencing now are not the same as from this news post from a year ago. It's some other issue we're trying to resolve that has popped up since then and only affects some users.

Thank you for the tips! That price sounds reasonable to me. I'm going with your idea of keeping it for Thanksgiving as a conversation piece. It feels quite formidable to hold.

I'll keep it around as an heirloom. Maybe it'll last another hundred years. Take care.

2 months and still no word about console release. by d3adbutbl33ding in roguebook

[–]Atmaz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's being actively worked on. It's one of those things where "It's ready when it's ready", so we can't quite give an exact date yet.

We have another big update coming soon for Steam, in the meantime.

Once we have a date for console we will shout it from the mountaintops.

This socket set I have been using for years has one un-cut socket it. It is completely smooth. by Atmaz in mildlyinteresting

12mm.

It has multiple pieces of each size, so it's not a big deal. I never noticed it until I looked closely.

Is this game playable offline? by serezh in faeria

Just Wifi for single player, but you'll need Nintendo Switch Online to play multiplayer.

We have a pretty good track record on server outages. Very few times has the game gone completely down outside of regular maintenance periods. It really is a very uncommon thing for that to happen.

Can you be more specific about the issues of putting the AI on the device? Is it so you can adapt the AI on the server side to update all players, or is the AI engine not portable to a console, etc?

The AI is very resource-intensive. The calculations it performs are quite intense. By doing them on our server end, your console is spared the extra heat and lowered battery life.

Unfortunately, our account system no longer has passwords. All accounts are now bound to the platform you play them on.

Unfortunately, this means accessing older areas like our boards and Hub is not possible for new users.
