Server Status

We’re still working on server stability and will continue to update our server status thread here: 1.0 Server Status Thread

This does require a game update which you will see available on Steam. If you don’t please restart Steam.

The texture changes are not typically something we would target for a pre-weekend hotfix and would normally be targeted for a planned larger bugfix patch (like the one we are working on for next week). We only included them in this hotfix because one of the changes in with those texture changes was required for the Balthas quest failsafe which we really wanted to get out before the weekend.

My point is: The texture changes were in no way part of the decision making as to whether the disruption of a hotfix deployment was necessary.

There was an issue found with the other left click options close to launch. Essentially, players could get in a state where they couldn’t click on to interact with anything in the world. Because of how core the system is, a potential fix that we have in the works was deemed to risky to try and rush out for launch so we needed to temporarily disable the feature.

Point is: It’s being worked on and intended to be reenabled when we feel confident in it.
