Talisman: Digital Classic Edition News

Hello all,

A new update is now live – v. 71730.

We're not gonna do our usual super formatting for this patch as we've only got a few logic fixes.

The major thing that comes with this update is controller support and online stability fixes.

If you plug your controllers in there should be fully mapped support. We'll include a controller map layout image in the next patch, but for now you should be able to use your controllers. Plug them in and have a play!

We've spent ages working on online stability fixes that has led us down some pretty deep and dark rabbit holes that led to some new and improved stability bugs but we think we're on top of that now. We should see less dropouts and less trouble rejoining/resuming games across all platforms. We're very focused on online stability at the moment so if you continue to have issues then please let us know.

• New music for battles and psychic combat.
  
• Text spill cleaned up if there are multiple winners for the Runic Revolution ending.
  
• Ghosts now respect Gauntlet rules in the Inner Region.
  
• Ruined City now correctly discards after taking a card from the purchase deck.
  
• Village Mystic is now correctly placed if you draw them through the Meeting Place card.
  
• Chivalric Knight should be able to encounter other players through the Spiteful Imp card.
  
• The Black Knight Denizen should discard correctly when on a Terrain card.

As always, thanks for all the support.

Hello all,

This patch is content-fix heavy. We have another patch scheduled for the end of this week/start of next week that will be quite content-light but will be super important as it has a load of online-network fixes that we've been working on over the past few months.
