Default Patch Notes 26-MAY-09

Scheduled downtime for 26-MAY-09, 11AM CET
Estimated duration: up to 120 minutes.


Update Notes

General
  • BattleForge goes Play4Free. You can now get access to the full BattleForge game world without having to enter a serial key. This includes all community features, upgrades, scenarios, ranked duels and 2 decks. To be able to trade away cards or BattleForge Points, you can unlock the full trade features either through reaching rank 4 in PvE or Rank 10 in PvP or by entering a serial key. Players that already played the demo can keep using these accounts. Their decks have been exchanged with the new decks and the rewards and campaign progress gained in the demo version is still available.
  • It's now possible to sort the auctions. They can be sorted by price, period of time, auction type, or the name of the auction item.
  • You are now able to discard upgrades and / or charges from your card. Discarded upgrades get destroyed; charges are added back to your card collection.

Cards
  • Card Balancing: Watchlist Card Magma Spores increased Special cost 30 -> 50
  • Card Portal Nexus: Fixed a bug where the game crashed when trying to use the Portal and the Portal Exit is already shut down.

User Interface
  • New UI flow: After buying a tome in the marketplace, it will be automatically registered afterwards if possible. When the registration process has been completed you will be directly forwarded to the "Create New Deck" Screen where you can create a new Tome deck.

Miscellaneous
  • Engine Improvement: Improved memory management performance
  • Engine Improvement: Graphics card memory consumption by 3D user interface textures reduced and visual quality improved (e.g. selection marker)

Bug Fixes
  • Bugfix Code: Fixed deck level calculation when upgrading a card and deck contains promo cards
  • Bugfix Code: Outdated replay files will now show embedded data instead of "n.A." in the replay list
  • Bugfix Code: Fixed issue that screenshots sometimes couldn't be created through the hotkey if a pregame section was active
  • Bugfix Mission: Raven Battleship is longer mindcontrollable
  • Bugfix Code: A Promocard as CoverCard will be no longer displayed as a white rectangle in the "Mission Briefing" screen anymore.
  • Bugfix Map: Encounters With Twilight – The Twilight Wrathgazer has now less hitpoints and does less freeze attacks on standard difficulty
  • Bugfix Map: Siege of Hope – There are new helpful troops joining your cause when you reach one of the 2nd and 3rd refugee camps on standard difficulty. The final fight will involve less healing and respawning on standard difficulty
  • Bugfix Map: Defending Hope - Final attack wave has been reduced in strength on standard difficulty
