This patch has made my day, my week, my month and perhaps even my year. Hmm, suddenly I have the urge to watch Friends. What's wrong with me!

Seriously though a huge thank you to the whole team from the programers and testers to the moderators of this forum who really took our concerns and bug reports to heart and made sure we were heard. Keep up the good work all!

This is a HUGE improvement!! Most of my issues were fixed by this, so thanks a lot!

"Integrated changes from PC version 3.06" could you explain what is means exactly?

There wasn't much in 3.06 from what I read. I've listed it below here, but I'd guess at least the Nightshroud bug maybe.

Changelog:

• UI
  
  • Fixed the assign/recall button on the Stronghold Adventure UI.
    
    
  • The White March Part II instruction popup will no longer be shown after the first save-load in a new campaign.
    
  
  
• Items
  
  • Fixed Nightshroud missing its DR reduction. This fix will only work on games that haven't acquired the weapon.

I still dont see anything about the awful load times fixed. Does improved game stability or decreased save game size affect load times? A minute and a half every transition has ruined this game for me and others.

I hope so too. I haven't had time to play yet since the update. I would guess so since as I understand it there are two known things that are impacting load times. One of which was the constantly bloating save size since a lot of the data from the persistent choices made had to be loaded in every transition. That might be better.

But the other issue is related to a memory leak in the code. Basically the longer you play the longer load times get because not all the memory(RAM) is being released when it should be due to a bug in the code. That was not addressed in the patch notes so I'd imagine it's still being worked on and will hopefully get fixed in an upcoming hotfix patch instead of the next big update.

Good afternoon all,

I recently purchased the game for XBOX one and ran into an issue where randomly my parties gear would vanish. It was always armor slots and never weapons. So i came to the forums and read of other having the issue. I live in an area off the grid so to speak ( a little farm house) so I dont have internet at home however I used a hot spot on my phone to patch the game in hopes that it would correct the issues. However the patch did not fix the random deleting on gear. It is not nearly as bad as it was but its still there. It seems to mainly be tied to Boots, Gauntlets, Rings, and Neck pieces. Is there any chance that this will be fixed in the near future? I am running into instances where mid fight my character on screen will look like they have no cloths on. then when i do open the inventory screen they only have the chest armor, helm and weapon.

Appreciate any thoughts or comments.

I had an issue (and still do) where my inventory or stash has everything vanish when I access it. I just back all the way out and access it again. Once I do that, everything reappears back to normal. I don't have the deletion bug.. sorry that I can't really help with that.
