This is mainly a bugfixes and tweaks patch before the DreamHack Tournament. Therefore there are no big Ability reworks and only smaller tweaks, we will look into doing more major changes to Bloodlines and Abilities after DreamHack if we believe it to be necessary.
Grimrog
• The Grimrog is now available in matchmaking and tournament games
• The Grimrog is now available in the Marketplace for 600 Funcom points or 17 000 Blood Coins
General
• Added two new Titles that are given to all players. The titles are "Looking for Clan" and "Looking for Team"
• When viewing a Replay the Play Again button at the end of the Replay now correctly restarts the Replay.
• It is now possible to limit the FPS by changing UpdateFpsLimit and DrawFpsLimit in the BloodlineChampions.ini file.
Marketplace
• New outfits, weapons and emotes added to the shop
• New tournament avatars added
• New tournament weapons added
Replays
• Outdated replays can not be loaded in the new patch, to view old replays you will need to backup your bloodlinechampions.exe. You can also grab the old bloodlinechampions.exe from your Patches folder in your Bloodline Champions folder. Remember that you will not be able to login when you use an old bloodlinechampions.exe to launch the game and you can only view replays locally. When backing up your bloodlinechampions.exe you can rename the file to something else, you don't need to replace your standard bloodlinechampions.exe.
