Hi all, just want to let you know that after a weekend in open beta with no new, severe issues being introduced, we are putting 1.3.2 fully live on all platforms right now. The objective is to have a stable version available for all over the holiday break, without further gating desirable gameplay fixes and balance tweaks behind a beta.
We are aware that some players are experiencing performance issues with the new patch. So far we've had no luck debugging this issue, so any feedback and system information you can share in this thread would be much appreciated:
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/foru...uttering-please-post-your-specs-here.1292924/
If you can help us out with your system specs and any other actionable feedback you may have, we'll do what we can to address this.
1.3.1 saves appear to work fine on this version, but in case you encounter any issues and want to finish an older game, you can revert back by right clicking on Imperator in your Steam library, selecting Properties -> Betas -> choose the version you want.

1.3.1 saves appear to work fine on this version, but in case you encounter any issues and want to finish an older game, you can revert back by right clicking on Imperator in your Steam library, selecting Properties -> Betas -> choose the version you want.
I'm really proud to join this team. Stand by for exciting developments in 2020 as we continue the Imperator journey. Have fun playing over the holidays, and we'll see you in January!
