We are working on a little something in Armello for our Mac & Linux players. It would appear we may be able to resurrect and reinstate Mac & Linux party support. No promises, but we're working on it and initial tests are very promising. Stay tuned! We'll have more to say in a week or two.


As always, thanks for all your support, folks. Could not be more excited to share these new games with you!

Hey Armellians!

Just a quick post to let y'all know that our recent patch v2.2-p2 has been rolled out across consoles, so we've re-enabled Crossplay.

Get questin', and I'll see ya in Armello!

Hey friends!

Another patch hot off the press for any of you affected by issues finding and joining multiplayer games.

In this patch:

• Players will no longer experience automatically cancelled matchmaking when server is erroneously at capacity.
  
• Fixed an issue where players could not requeue after cancelling the multiplayer queue too quickly.
  
• Fixed an issue where party members could break public matchmaking for their party.
  
• The not finding PartyWin7.dll error that was preventing some players from gathering a party has been resolved.
  

Note: Crossplay is temporarily disabled on Steam as we roll these hotfixes out to you all first. Crossplay will be reinstated to Steam once the fixes land on consoles.

Don't forget, if you're experiencing issues with the game, be sure to submit your bugs via the in-game bugsender with "attach log files" checked, when you see it occur in-game. The best chance we get at promptly identifying and fixing issues is when we see those logs.

That's it! Hope you're havin a blast thrashin' that pesky King (and all your pals)! Talk soon!

Hey Armellians!

It's been great seeing so many of you jumping into our final update, v2.2 Crossplay, but after monitoring the live build for a month or so, there were some issues we wanted to iron out. So we just couldn't help ourselves - we’ve dived back in to investigate and address some bugs that were impacting players’ ability to load into matches.

The focus of this patch is major issues with starting and finding games, and it's live now.

We've addressed...

• An issue where the ‘Game ready!’ popup would appear without all the player slots filled, preventing games from starting properly (note: there may still be empty slots for a few seconds while players finish joining the match).
  
• An issue where players would be searching for a game and never find one.
  
• An issue where you would occasionally receive an infinite spinner when attempting to join a private game lobby.
  

We expedited this patch Steam, so you're a touch ahead of console players and thus won’t be able to crossplay until certification on console is complete and the fix is rolled out to those platforms. We'll keep you posted on that.

As always we are grateful to everyone who supports us and this game. There seemed to be some confusion with our last update, we are not abandoning the game. We are still here, ready and available to resolve major issues. Armello has a huge place in our hearts, even though we’re working on two unannounced titles.

So please, keep the feedback and bug reports coming. As mentioned, we read every single one. And of course, reading your positive words gives the team fuel every day!
