Thank you for the co-op reports, especially the lag even on the same home network. This update makes playing together much smoother, trims more stutter and brings some new art.
Co-op
- Co-op now sends far less data between players, so playing together should feel much smoother.
- Hosting co-op takes much less work from your PC.
- Fixed a rare error when a friend left while their pets or follower were out.
Smoother play
- Fights, walking creatures, quest markers and character animation do less work every frame, which helps most on older PCs.
- Reduced an occasional hitch in long fights when playing in Simplified Chinese.
- Enemy yells in fights now stay in one steady spot above your action bars and show who is shouting, instead of jumping around nameplates.
New art
- Every Adventurer and Artisan bonus in the Guild Legacy now has its own painted icon.
- The Mourning Line's three bosses, Conductor Vey, the Luggage Widow and Engine No. 0, have new models.
If the update doesn't show up, restart Steam. Thanks again for the feedback and bug reports!
