---------------------

Heroes.
We're putting out 1.6.1.1 today. A small but important patch which fixes a crash and a issue with lobbies.

• Fixed a crash that could occur when closing the game.
  
• Fixes an issue with some lobbies not showing up in the lobby browser.

Heroes!
It's another week, and today we're updating Vermintide 2 with a new set of Weekly Events as well as a few fixes and tweaks.

• Added 4 new Weekly Events (new Event goes live at 14:00 CEST)
  
• Fixed a situation that can arise when a client leaves a hosted session and for a brief window is still seen as part of the hosted session, whilst also being host of their own session, causing some unusual side effects.
  
• Fixed an issue where the flames from Bardin's Drakefire weapon sometimes never disappeared.
  
• Blood splatter VFX can now be turned of completely if so desired.

"It is a time of darkness and despair.
When flakes of snow tumble through the air.
The wolves' howls will give you no rest.
As you show off your sweet rewards from these Mondstille quests."

It is time for 1.4.1 - update #44 - bringing you a couple of winter season event quests & rewards to keep for ever more. These event quests will run until Wednesday, Jan 9 - there's plenty of time to get these new animated Portrait Frames, so go and get in line.

We are also running a Double XP Weekend, from Friday, Dec 21 19:00 CET to Tuesday, Dec 25 19:00 CET.

Known Issue(s):

Patch 1.4.0.2 has just gone live addressing some issues that arose with Patch 1.4 'Back to Ubersreik' as well as some balance tweaks and localisation fixes. The notes are below:



Localization

• Various localization fixes to Simplified Chinese, Polish, and English languages.

Weapons

• Kruber's Sword and Mace: These weapons should feel, and play nicer now that we've correctly configured settings for hit-impact sounds, hit-stop animations, precision sweeps and impact vectors. We've switched the heavy attack damage templates to the heavy one-handed versions. These weapons should now count and proc like heavy attacks while also increasing damage output by a lot - specifically against armor.
  
• Saltzpyre's Axe and Falchion: We've updated hit-impact sounds to pla...

Heroes,

Welcome to Patch 1.2.2 - update #41 - for Vermintide 2. Introducing Geheimnisnacht.

Geheimnisnacht is the most ill-omened night of the year, and it is marked as an important date in the Old World’s Calendar. The veil between the living and the dead is especially thin on this night, and the Winds of Magic grow stronger. Only the strong and brave dare venture out after the sun sets.

To celebrate, the sun has suitably set across Helmgart and all the maps will be illuminated by Mannslieb and Morrslieb alone, plunging once bright locales in to dimly lit landscapes of despair.

We'll have a limited time event quest on offer which rewards a new portrait frame, as well as opening up the once off-limits trophy room in Taal's Horn Keep for heroes to showcase their progressi... Read more

Heroes!
Welcome to version 1.2.1, release #40. In this release, we're making changes to crafting, adding a new type of crafting material - Bright Dust, adding a new feature with the Social Wheel, changes to how the game handles speed running. And many more tweaks and bug fixes.

The Social Wheel

• A new feature - the Social Wheel.
  • The default keybind of holding down 'T' will open a popup menu for social interactions. Things like "Help!", and "Patrol!" will be printed in the chat, translated for all players.
    
  • Also, holding down 'T' over an item that can be picked up, such as Tomes, Grimoires, and Potions, will command bots to pick up the item. Bots can also be ordered to discard Grimoires by looking at the bot and holding down 'T'.

  We t...

We have just rolled out the second hotfix for the 1.2.1 BETA for Vermintide 2:

Hotfix #2 - 12/10/2018

• Made the Social Wheel easier to mod by moving out category selection to separate settings file.
  
• Added an extra check for the Conflict Director when it's deciding to spawn enemies to challenge speed runners. It will now wait to spawn extra enemies if the player has allies that are awaiting respawn in front of that player. This is to avoid punishing players that go for revives by outrunning enemies.
  
• Fixed Missing 2nd grim and 3rd tome on Convocation of Decay.
  
• Fixed a crash that could occur if a a body part of a precision target enemy was removed by another player before connecting with the swing.
  
• Fixed an uncommon Social Wheel crash that could occur if the pickup unit got removed the frame before you try to give a pickup order.
  
• Fixed drakegun and flamestorm staff not being ab...
