Super Gro is HERE! + Patch

Hey folks!

It's time to get half a content pack a week early, introducing, SUPER GRO to the world!

Head over to Empathy Kingdom and swing by the flower bed just outside the Duchess's Tower, there you'll find your one free Super Gro.

With it, you'll be able to unlock the Super Gro transformations of Laz, Apo or Jungro:



If you use the item in-battle, you'll be able to activate a mid-battle transformation and keep your Super Gro item for re-use, but if you use it on a monster outside of battle the Super Gro will be lost, in exchange for making the transformation permanent.

If you want more, better get searching! The deepest wilderness tamer packs have a low chance of containing one.

Tune in next week for Atomic Clock!

Some additional fixes:

EA v1.53
----------------------
+Boss monsters no longer respect level difference when attempting to tame (must deplete HP)
+Message stating if a transformation item does not work on a monster
+Transformation items no longer used up if they don't have an effect on that respective monster
+Water now animates in caves/underground
+New Molkuran Overworld sprite
+Cleaned up code for the breeding slots, more stable and reliable now.
+Transformation animation improved

Super Gro, or Atomic Clock? You decide.

The time is here to learn about Content Pack 4 and cast your vote!

Patch 0.1.487

Hey guys,

Hope you all had fun running around the next portion of the island and collecting Halloween Harveskin, which is now back to its default colors.

Here's the patch list:

EA v1.487
----------------------
+Campfire no longer visible in battle
+Player off-grid after stopping riding fixed
+Scrave, monster without yet complete data, removed from random monster pool
+Frost Province Storm no longer cleared after leaving caves
+Brutus riding position fixed
+Monsters save slot id (Organization fans, it's time to party)
+Echelk sprite polishing
+Frost Hooper sister no longer looking the wrong direction
+Harveskin is back to normal coloration in the wild
+No longer stop running after scouting

Two big things you might enjoy with this update are that:

A) You no longer stop running after scouting, which could sure wreck your momentum when scout-grinding!

B)The box system now remembers specific slots, not just boxes, so you can organize to your heart's desire.

With B, you will notice (especially if you have a TON of monsters) the game will hang the first time you open your box system. This is the game going over every one of your monsters and assigning them a box and slot id, this may shuffle things around, and will recover any monsters that were previously lost to the "void between boxes". From then on wherever you lay a monster, it will be there when you come back!

Expect some information on Content Pack #4 a little earlier than we usually share info on content packs this month, I can't wait to see what you think (and which side you choose ;) )

---

One last thing, a little art gift for those of you that chose Canite :)




#Please note that we want to keep the primary EA build stable so new builds will be uploaded to the EA-BETA branch for one week before being moved to the main stream. Anyone can access this branch, just right-click Monster Crown in Steam, go to properties and select the EA-BETA branch to have the up to the minute, bleeding edge updates.
