Hey all!
We've been working hard on this latest patch making sure we get the known issues properly QA'd. We've put together a gameplay demo which you can download for free which includes the opening hour of gameplay. For those of you waiting to take the plunge into The Occupation, this is great way to get started!
We have 8 bug fixes in place along with the much requested 'Reset Keybinds' open for those playing on keyboard.
The rest of the patch list for those interested is:
[1] Fixed an issue that made 'The Miller Report' not unlock when completing a play through. Note: If this has happened to you, you can simply chapter select to the last level, play from there and upon finishing the credits it will unlock
[2] Fixed an issue with the Phones that prevented you from using them after losing a token in them
[3] Improved stability of AI characters
[4] Fixed an issue where players could get stuck on automatically-closing doors
[5] Prevented player from being able to double-bind keys when rebinding keys
[6] Fixed some UI prompts not updating their icon after the player rebinds keys
[7] Fixed a crash for players without a valid audio device / sound card
We'll of course continue to monitor any issues people may be having and get fixes in place where necessary! If we miss your message or you need a more urgent response, please don't hesitate to reach out to support@whitepapergames.com
Thank you all again for the continued support! It means everything to us!
Steve just got the fix he needed to be able to keep his job as a security guard before his big role in Hollywood!
The patch notes include:
[1] Fixed an issue with Steve handing you your ID card in The Carson Offices.
[2] You could lose the Silhouette Disk when swapping it with the eraser in the introductory level.
[3] Player could get locked into the chair in the last level, forcing them to restart the level.
[4] Fixed a player path issue in Metacentre from 2nd floor stock room to balcony, player can now climb out
[5] Large fix to NPC navigation issues which caused AI to pass through walls and get stuck in various places in The Carson Office, The Metacentre and The Bowman Building.
[6] On screen prompts when playing in Russian exceeded the bounds of the screen at some points.
[7] Steve's presence was too strong in the Bowman Building. This has been toned down
[8] Added additional clue in The Bowman Building to reinforce last gameplay objective
[9] Silhouette Disk can disappear when you are taking it out of a pneumatic canister in the IPA
[10] 4k resolution on consoles had a cursor offset during inspect mode.
[11] Carla was only doing Coffee animations in her meeting, she now does a full host of animations as intended.
[12] Submitted a fix for 4k and odd resolutions causing issues on PC.
[13] Player could get locked in the room behind Charles Bowman's office. This has now been fixed.
[14] Following certain steps, the player couldn't trigger the set piece after the IPA building level. This has been addressed.
[15] In the final level, the meeting could get stuck and not progress after dialogue stopping. We believe we have fixed this issue with this patch, however would love player feedback to make sure it's a secure fix.
[16] Fixes to Motion Blur and Ambient Occlusion options in menu pause menu
We hope these fixes help to address any frustration we've read about or watched over the last few days. Creating The Occupation has been a massive achievement for our team & if you've been holding off on starting your investigation until the weekend, please do let us know what you think!
Thank you so much to everyone for such an incredible release week!
