Update 3.3 Patch Notes

People are saying this is one of the only games on PSN working right now. If Puzzle Quest 3 falls PSN falls!

Hopefully, the Event Shop data will be updated in the next 24-48 hours - but once I get an actual confirmation, I’ll edit this post.

This was the thing I was most excited about… until it went live and I realized it didn’t apply to the adventure conversations.

I’m loving the new visual additions I’m finding as I’m playing such as the neon pink/magenta smoke surrounding you when you’re possessed. The game is looking really rather pretty now, especially with these fx enhancements.

Apart from the niggles this is a fantastic update!

Third player confirmed via Discord that they were on 3.3 at the time of the crashes.

My point is that people who are trying to make a profit of gems can’t, because the people who are buy all 4 caches make it very difficult.

There should be a separate leaderboard for each group of caches.

And our point is that maybe the Events are not designed to make a gem profit. Imagine getting separate leaderboards, you could get 1000 gems every 3 days with no effort at all buying no caches. I don’t think the devs designed the events with that in mind.

Obviously they’d have to scale the rewards to the number of tokens bought.

Although, currently, if nobody bought any tokens, we’d all make a 1,000 gem profit every 3 days. Just saying…

Indeed, only in terms of gem profit the best would be that no one buys any cache. But… Do you know about the Prisoner’s dilemma? I wouldn’t bet on it working :yum:

It does work though, because the Prisoner’s Dilemna assumes you can’t communicate with one another, but in Puzzle Quest 3 you can. So it basically becomes this massive mini-game of Diplomacy (which I love). Event more than anything ( and Party) has really brought the PSN community closer together and bonded the players and alliances pretty tightly than they otherwise would have been if Event didn’t exist.

I agree with you though, I wouldn’t want it to be completely without risk. In any event, Event its more like Lets Make a Deal than Win or Lose since whatever happens, you will profit in some way, just maybe not in the original way you had intended like getting 1000 gems every 3 days. Instead maybe getting mythic pets or glyphs or relics, etc. Even the essence and healing potions can be extremely useful later on in adventures to help you with a particularly tough battle. Everyone gets something just for playing each time.

@Jeto Ps4 version takes a few seconds after a fight starts now after this patch to load spells portraits.

This seems to be a PS4 only issue (not affecting PS5). Its not gamebreaking in any way, maybe just slightly annoying, but not a big deal really. I just bring it up so that you’re aware of it is all.

@Jeto Random thought, but since we can party archives now, would it be possible to add all the archive backgrounds to customize Kingdoms for Menu backdrop and Defense environment options?

@Jeto I think you all might have messed up with the current To your Doom adventure. Anyone who takes the right path to the merchant for the weapon glyph will only have 1 day left with 3 energy. Unfortunately it takes 4 energy to finish, which means you’d either have to 1) Skip the weapon glyph at the merchant and go straight to the exit. Or 2) Buy energy for 50 gems to finish. Or 3) Add one more day to the To your Doom adventure to allow everyone to finish.

While I do appreciate this, as its now quicker to close this window, there should still be an option to skip this window from ever opening in the first place if you do not have any of the potions in the first place.

This can be disabled/enabled when using Autoplay so why can’t we do the same for normal play?

The potion window is like an annoying pop-up ad that we have to constantly close.

Update on the Event Shop - we will be releasing a fix for it today, appears there were some issues, wrong text etc etc!

  • The only thing missing from the fix will be the Mythic Minion, which will go in 3.3.1 at the earliest (don’t have an ETA)
  • The Glyph cost for Accessories and Armor was incorrect, they are 125 Diamond Marks (like the other Glyphs) and not 75 Diamond Marks
  • Saturday Follower Crystals cost from 50/50/100/150/250 to 50/100/150/200/250 (when reading down the cost list)

I will get to updating the patch notes everywhere they are posted when I have a free minute Updated above, on Steam and on the website.

Just a couple of reminders!

The new Events start after daily reset!

Also, the studio is closed for the next two days, as mentioned in our October Event blog

Again, like it says above, if any critical bugs appear we will have devs standing by to jump on and get them resolved as soon as we can!

The team is currently working to get this Android crashing issue resolved as soon as possible.

The team is also aware that To Your Doom is showing as 3 days and not the intended 4 day Adventure. That should get resolved shortly! Fix has been released for this

I can only hope that over this weekend, you all jump into Boss Rush and have an awesome time, going up against some high levelled enemies!

Boss Rush Mode is crashing for lots of players at the end of runs. Seeing chat in guild/kingdom and in general chat about this.

A couple random crash codes on this:

Thanks for the heads up, the dev team is currently investigating the issue, and will hopefully have a fix out for this soon. I’ll post here once a fix has been pushed.
