PS4 (10.12.2018): Archery, Katana and Bug Fixes [116294_20188]

My favourite part of the new patch is finding out you can now rename chests. I also just realized you can rename your pets. Not sure if that was new or I just didn’t realize it was possible before. Cool!

Please consider adding a feature to allow people to dismiss pets or thralls they no longer need or want. Right now, the only way I seem to be able to do that is to lead them into the wilderness, put them on guard mode, and wait for them to starve to death. Releasing them from thralldom and allowing them to live free lives, or say, selling them to a slave lord, seems like a more humane option! :wink:

This is sort of happening on Xbox as well. I watched a thrall with a great sword attack a bear, take a step back, attack again, step back, and repeat.

Also, it has become very difficult to build because half the time when I hit a trigger to rotate a piece, or raise/lower it, I attack instead.

And No More Vathis for a named Fighter!
you give us good things to play the game with and take them away,
your devs seem like a bunch of trolls that just sit back and laugh at the chaos they cause.
it was a good thing, and i mentioned before they would take it away,
because why give us, (your paying customers) anything they like.
im just disgusted with this whole mess. . .

This update does not appear to be free. I am in-game and the building pieces plus the weaponry are all locked. I have feats points available but cannot unlock them still. They all appear to have green arrows on the top-right of each image indicating some kind of DLC requirement. What to do?

Look on the bright side,
at least they didn’t give it to you and then just take it away like they do with everything else

Yeah, I suppose. However there isn’t even a DLC to purchase in the store at all so it is a little irritating honestly. Having new toys to play with and no viable way to access them is annoying.

Cannot collect rocks wood branches without going offline & reloading building pieces stuck in hand cannot requip weapon get killed must reset application and try again

All well and good but framerate has tanked again, which means none of this is worth a damn until it’s fixed… again, which means it should have been done before it was released… again.

Should we be afraid of updates? Because that’s what I am.

Hey there,
Some DLC pieces are showing in preparation for its upcoming release. The rest of the additions included in this patch are available to all users regardless of DLC ownership, including katanas.

Cheers

That’s just it though, they aren’t available to us. Katanas show up on my feats list but the skill is locked and will not unlock. They show up in my blacksmith bench but are blackened out and say “Required Knowledge: Katana”.

Hey,
Katanas should be craftable under the Bruiser category on feats, could you check if it is available for you without giving that DLC requirement?

Cheers

Hey,
Epic Aquilonian armor is still craftable in the crafting bench. It is the one featuring a subtle purple color around its borders. Depending on your display settings it might be difficult to spot.

Cheers

Is it different for Console users? Perhaps that is why I cannot use the Katana. I will show a picture of my dilemma.

the bottom right is the Yamatai and it shows red in its background as if I don’t meet requirements to unlock it. Even though the only listed requirement is unlocking “Bruiser” which I clearly have done.

Hey,

Excuse me for reusing your caption for a speedy response’s sake! :slight_smile:
You can find the katana on the marked spot.

Sorry if the icon is not very clear!

Cheers.

Yes this is been happening to me as well, it even happens when placing thralls or pets and trying to change there direction.

When will the new dlc be available for purchase.

Noticed a slight bug when rotating building pieces or other placeables, upon hitting R2 or L2, instead of rotating the item, it will cancel placement and my character will enter the unarmed fighting stance, but the rotation will work while still in that stance.
