1.0.6 Patch Notes
Today's patch has includes a change to the Cartography ability that's shared by the Cartographer and Seeker. We love the Cartography playstyle that revolves around exploring the entire map using items like the Sextant and Theodolite - but both our internal stats and your feedback showed that the fame you could get from the maps created was significantly higher than that for the other Leader classes. Those classes now should be more in line with the fame-generating abilities of the other class-specific abilities.
There are also a number of bug fixes in this update, including a fix for bad performance that some players experienced on larger maps. We've also fixed a few issues where important locations could only be reached via the fog, which was often pretty unfair, as well as a number of problems when using a Gamepad. Check out the full patch notes below. Keep your bug reports coming as always, using the Bug Report button in the Settings menu - thanks!
And finally, in case you missed it, we recently updated the CE2 FAQ with some answers for the common questions about the state of the game and our plans for the future - check it out on the Steam forums.
