Greeting to all those who covet the Iron Throne! It has been one month since A Game of Thrones: The Board Game - Digital Edition was released. We have remained, unbowed, unbent and unbroken in the face of the battles that came and have fought to ensure that the experience of all players is the best it can be. We want to thank every player that has taken a part in the Game of Thrones for your tireless passion, feedback and bug reports to help us make this the best game it possibly can be! Over the past month we have released a number of new features and fixed a number of bugs that were causing issues for players, thanks to all of your feedback. Take a few moments to review all of the changes that we have made below, to improve the experience of all users: [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38086613/bc4b4e9cf7514a3755fe598b14b5fdf272ff908f.png[/img] [u][b][h1]New Features & Implementations[/h1][/b][/u][list][*]Live Game Mode - A feature that is enabled by the game host. It ensures that when a player leaves the match they are immediately replaced by a bot for the interim of their absence. This feature provides users with a more syncronous play experience. [*]Player clock visibility - We made additional changes to allow users to see the time left on all user's player clocks. This provides more visibility into the state of other player's remaining time. [*]Visual feedback on Bot replacement - Some users were not aware of when a user was replaced with a bot. To help users identify this switch, a new visual feedback for this was added. [*] Passwords removed for friend matches - As invites were required for friend matches, the password requirement was removed to meet player demands. [*] Password no longer required after joining match - Once a match with a password is joined, you no longer require to enter it again at a later point. This was to reduce input requirements on players and hasten reconnections to matches.
