I think some of the things like drowning or the Inimical Gestalt we would like to revisit in a little more depth when we have time, so that will probably be done in the beta branch.

Thanks for the heads up. The hostile takeover situation made me confused if we were gonna receive tons of live updates or a new beta branch. As Maxil20, appreciated the communication.

see no problem with this

It’s this “Final” Boss… you obviously shouldn’t be able to beat it by pinning it in with a dresser cabinet.

Thank you.

Has anyone really entered the game? Inimical Gestalt doesn't disappear after I took off the crown, although it wasn't mentioned in the update, they only disappear outside the loading range now

yes, better be that way

This wish of yours is as unrealistic as asking the devs to implement intelligent pathfinding for all DST creatures.

Will drying rack slots be added?

• Added new strings and sounds for Wandering Trader.

Ah, I was hoping this meant he'd talk and use his voice.
I did notice he had a talking icon like Pearl does in the files... is he meant to?

In the previous version, I teleported hostile Terramites to another location.  In the current version, the game crashes whenever hostile Terramites appear in my field of view, making it impossible to play normally.@V2C

I have wished for many things, and if it gonna take them a century for them to implement good mob pathfinding then so be it.

  Neither smart pathfinding nor adding structure-breaking to all bosses is technically difficult for the devs—they simply choose not to, as it contradicts their design philosophy. So no, not in a century, not ever. Your wish is simply unrealistic

Clearly even you don't know that Deerclops can destroy things by walking over them 🙄

Dude... at least test before making claims

Every 'conclusion' you've made is pure headcanon.

Appreciate the honesty, but please – can there be a temporary solution between the current state and revisiting it later? 

Any player that joins a server post WARBOT will literally get annihilated the moment night starts. This means people spawn in and get killed immediately.

The majority of people voting on the poll about the new update named Pearl's eviction the worst part of the update (75% of the players voted against the eviction vs 25% saying they like it), yet there's still not a single explanation or commentary regarding it from Klei.

Here it is closer to less than 50%.

And the pool itself asks for what was the best/worst part of the update, I don't think that people would vote pearl eviction as the best part of an update that also kills Wagstaff adds an upgrade to the celestial crown.

One change that I don't like is that the upgraded Enlightened Crown don't have unique skins—it simply reuses the old ones. Previously, it had a distinct visual style that clearly set it apart as a completely new version of the item. Now, it just looks like the old crown with minor, barely noticeable visual effects

when drying rack?

[Jakepeng99]

Any news on wandering trader updates?

Celestial scion floor still decreases fps to 8-10 damn

I see where are you coming from, let me explain. If you isolate the Pearl question specifically, out of 50 total people who bothered to vote on either of the Pearl questions,
37 voted against Pearl's eviction, naming it the worst part of the update: 

and only 13 people voted that they liked Pearl's eviction, naming it the best part of the update:


When I wrote my previous comment the numbers were 36 and 12, making it 3 times more the people who dislike the change vs people who liked it, hence my numbers. There's of course a part of the people who didn't vote on either Pearl questions, so let me rephrase it slightly: out of all people who care about what's going on with Pearl, 75% voted against her eviction. 

If we do consider people who are indifferent to Pearl's change then we get the following number:

• 42,5 % of players heavily disliked the change
• 42,6 % of players didn't bother to vote because they don't have a strong opinion on it
• only 14,9% of players liked the change

Which is still a considerable amount of players unhappy with the current state of the update regarding Pearl. In my opinion, this situation at least deserves some acknowledgement and explanation from the developers.

You're in luck. A new patch addressing that was released just an hour ago.

Dunno how effective it was, but they specifically said that they changed how the particles were rendered in the latest patch notes.

Just tested it and framerate doesnt drop to 8 fps anymore. Many thanks to developers!

• Updated the flame effects on the upgraded Enlightened Crown so that the shards are still partially visible.

Here is a comparison of the flame effect from beta, before this patch, and after this patch.

Also, potentially of interest, some art assets for upgraded Drying Racks (now with 3 drying slots total) were added in Hotfix 675312, but have yet to be implemented.

The WARBOT and SCION fight is amazing! I loved it. However, the loot is extremely underwhelming (the gestalts are annoying and they even kill you lol. I think it is even worse than the Ice Crystaleyezer. I hope they update the loot. At the moment it feels like they don't want us to fight the Scion.  =(
