Er wordt flink gesleuteld aan Ancient Farm

Dit betekent niet dat de meeste games bij launch slecht zijn, maar doorgaans zijn er wel elementen die voor ontwikkelaars duidelijker blijken dan voor gamers. De User Interface bijvoorbeeld of hoe bepaalde zaken werken. Games worden daarom vaak na launch gepatched om dergelijke feedback te adresseren. Zo ook bij Ultimate Games' Ancient Farm.

Twee dagen na release heeft die game nu zijn tweede patch mogen ontvangen, welke pijnpunten van spelers adresseert en bugs verdelgt. Ook zijn bepaalde delen van de game opnieuw gebalanceerd zodat het minder grindy wordt. Je leest het allemaal in de patch notes:

• Tool interaction improvements: Improved tool interactions so that tool actions no longer interfere with building panels, such as pastures or water troughs.
• Building demolition improvements: Fixed issues with demolishing houses and crafting stations, and adjusted the amount of resources you get back.
• UI glitch fixed: Fixed a bug where the building’s UI sometimes stayed on screen after demolition.
• Inventory & quickslot: Fixed an issue where the inventory would scroll on its own while assigning items to quickslots. Inventory management should now be smoother.
• Plant and tree size info added to the merchant panel: Some of you wanted to see plant sizes at the merchant. We’ve added this info for both plants and trees, so you can make better choices before buying.
• Tutorial quest sound adjustment: We made the tutorial quest completion sound softer, since some of you found it annoying.
• Building materials sale cost rebalance: Changed the prices of building materials at the merchant. This affects wood, stone, planks, and stone blocks.
• Faster quickslot usage & improved animations: We reduced the cooldown for using items from quickslots and improved the animations of performed actions.
• Lighting and fog improvements: Improved the lighting and fog systems, which sometimes caused unwanted effects, such as a slight screen blur.
