Doombringer Update - Patch Notes 1.1.0.030

Dinotropia · Mar 29th 2018, 11:00pm

We applied a quick patch to address a few ongoing issues and put some new items into the game. Here are patch notes for this latest round of updates:

Lots of great fixes, good job!

Verdant · Mar 29th 2018, 11:50pm

Could you clarify whether the underlying issue with prismatic card interaction was fixed, or were it just these particular cards?

Edswor · Mar 30th 2018, 12:17am

Great patch, let's hope the list of known bugs is reduced to zero

These might be the best patch notes I've ever read.

Cutting out bugfixes and the like that I expect to see post release... The quality of life improvements to the game are stellar. I actually had a little 'mind blown' moment each time I read the various changes, expecting each to be the last. The changes to boons are -fantastic-, and my only ONLY gripe with them is that as a game altering rule change Corey should likely weigh in with a post explaining this, and perhaps the patch notes should be linked some way in game. (More information for players who don't view the relatively small number of places that these changes happen. There will be more players confused as to why they now got Feral and can no longer get Skyguard out of nowhere than who read the notes, and some of them will legitimately have no idea why/when this change occurred. This is a similar problem to the lack of information about the ABC pack drafting for Doom Bringer being information that is difficult/impossible to find in the client.)

Threshold Filters now only show cards with the selected thresholds
Banned cards can no longer be randomly created
Cards now remain visible after a draft pick has been made from a pack. Remaining cards have a darkener to indicate they cannot be selected

Boons are now dynamically calculated and will not roll non-stacking keywords that currently exist on their target (And -Skyguard +Feral)

The HEX logo on the “Root” sleeves ~~no longer say “Shards of Fate” on them~~ Have been removed to maintain the purity of the artwork, the word Hex appears on the game client at all times so it's no longer needed on sleeves.

These are the highlights of this patch by a mile. (Obvious exception being the last point which is an early April First prank hahaha funny jokes lolololekekeke)

As I tweeted earlier, if these four things had come one patch a time, or perhaps three at a time with the two boon related changes being in one patch... I'd have already been mindblown. To see them all in the same patch warms my heart. More quality of life updates like this please.

Please don't let my minor aside about Corey posting about rules detract, on that note. This is brilliant regardless.

This!

HEX, you guys should really look into using that featured content space in the client to communicate important rule updates, patch notes, dates, etc.

I took Ire to the knee reading patch notes. Good job.

Ghulzen · Mar 30th 2018, 7:36am

It's not listed, but the lvl 100 primal pack has been changed to the correct set.

AceBladewing · Mar 30th 2018, 8:14am

Frost ring arena more broken now. Now, you can't even trick it into showing your rewards. This is getting stupid.

Man I hope I dont get that bug when I get home. Come on guys!

Fix the Esc. key functionality ASAP, please.

It should cancel the playing of a card, not continue playing it.

Bizznach · Mar 30th 2018, 10:08am

love the threshold search change.
one day can we have a prismatic only search option too plzzz?

I wish they put it as an additional filter (not the default one). Now it's very hard to see the prismatics in a evo, sealed pool.

That didn't exist when I made my post. =)

That said, I'm going to double down on my desire to have that linked somewhere in the client. We've gone from good to great, we could get greater.

(Ignoring the bugs introduced in this patch which are being worked on, because the bug fixes/bugs created aren't the point of my post.)

Fix it, like, yesterday, please. Game-breaking bug.

This should be priority #1, 2, and 3.

Can reverting

Threshold Filters now only show cards with the selected thresholds

Be priority #4? It's made sealed deckbuilding a billion times more laborious. I usually go through my cards shard by shard, and now I don't get to see prismatics unless I toggle each shard pair individually.

Also, the filter menu no longer goes away if you click outside it, which is really messing with 4 years of muscle memory.

It did, actually. Whether you read it or not is a different story, and is a good example of why it belongs in client.

Yeah, let's hope HXE spend some time in improving/fixing this (and previous) issues.
