Welcome Freelancers,

Apologies for the delay on this one, but I figured better late than never!

As the season of darkness continues on, shrouds of fog dance with kindled embers across Bastion. Are you partaking in any of the festivities, or do you prefer to venture out into the wilds and taken on the threats that lie beyond our walls?

Perhaps you saw, but late last week we shared the first of many stories that you might hear people speak of around the fires of Fort Tarsis. The story shared is of an everyday hero rather than a bold, stoic Freelancer (like yourselves). This custodian, the one we all know as Pirndel, may not be a fighter, but he does stand for what he believes in. Though, perhaps he can be a tad too strict about some things. Mind the cables.

We’ll share another story of heroism during times of darkness later this week. After all, that’s in part wha...

Is there a patch for this or just a server-side update?

Server side update, similar to the Cataclysm weekly updates. You won’t need to download a patch or anything.

Happy Season of Skulls, Freelancers!

Though this is the first time all of you are partaking in the festivities of Bastion, the Season of Skulls is a time-honored tradition.

When darkness gathers across the lands, the wayfaring peoples of Bastion kindle torches, braziers, and bonfires to bring back the light. When painful memories cling to us about those who fell before their time, memories of joy, friendship, and camaraderie arise to take their place. When despair tries to take us and we feel more alone than ever, humanity comes together to cherish one another. It is a time of darkness and terrors, yes, but also a time of hope, remembrance, and light.

The world around us isn’t safe. That’s never been more apparent than it is now. But it is in the face of that danger—the constant challenges around us—that humanity has been forged to be strong and brave. The strengt...

Hi there. Our support team would like to look into what might be causing this for you.

Thanks for keeping Echoes around a bit longer. Are the events going to rotate or change at all? Or is that still up in the air?

Thanks!

More events might open up later, but no promises right now. It’s not meant to be the full Cataclysm.

Greetings, Freelancers.

Many of you may have noticed that the Cataclysm content is… well… not totally gone. Technically, the Cataclysm event has officially ended, as planned. However, the team decided to leave some of the elements for you to play until the next content release. With that in mind, here’s what we’ve decided to leave open until the next seasonal update:

• The Echoes of Reality portion of the Cataclysm will remain open for you to enjoy
• You will still retain and earn Crystals in the EoR runs

With that said, we know we have some various UI bugs we did not anticipate. The team is working to resolve these. Here are the details you should know:

• We’ll bring back the Seasonal Store later this week, so you can spend the remaining Crystals you have, while you continue to earn them in the content still in the live game.
• Second (and this one is important), your Crystals will not carry over to the next Seasonal Event.
• Finally, Daily Cataclysm Challenges, Story Missions, and Free...

Updated with the top scores from Week 5-6. Congrats on the high scores! I wasn't sure if 20M would be reached, but at least 2 squads actually achieved it (both on PC).

Runner-up at 20,393,562 were:

• Nevasoul
• Elementarian
• ElFishPreslyy
• TheNewDisease

High there - Do you mind reporting this to our support team so they can look into your account to see what the problem might be?

We're still here. :)

Announcements will come when they're ready to show, but the team is still working on things.

Welcome to the 7th and final week of the Cataclysm! I’ll keep this intro short, but let’s have a look at what you can expect this week in the Echoes of Reality, Freeplay and Seasonal Store.

Cataclysm “Echoes of Reality” Changes:

• Arenas - The last event was added to the Cataclysm in Week 5, so you won’t need to learn any new ones this time. Now, it’s all about maximizing your runs and scores.
• Inversions - You’ll have a couple of new wrinkles to contend with on Inversions this week:
  • Broken Magazine: Weapons have no spare ammo, but enemies drop ammo more often.
  • Running on Empty: Firing the last shot in a weapon's clip increases all damage for a short time.

Seasonal Store Refresh:

• War Chest: Ranger, War Chest: Interceptor, War Chest: Storm & War Chest: Colossus (Returning) - Each chest includes 1 Gear, Support or Melee piece for the javelin of that War Chest.
• War Chest: Weapon (Returning) - Grants one item from the new pool of weapons (whic...

It’s not? The guns were back in the vault last night, though. Damn

That is where it's a little confusing. That part was a server side fix, while the rest requires a patch. So you are correct; that part is already in.

Patch 1.4.1 is not live as far as I can tell.

It's not live yet, no.

FYI, this was published a bit early this time, but the hope is to have this patch out tomorrow.

Hello Freelancers,

Thank you for all your feedback over the last couple of days following the release of our 1.4.0 Patch. As many of you have discovered and communicated to us, we have a few issues the team is addressing ASAP (listed below). The good news is, we did not intentionally “stealth nerf” anything. The less good news is, fixing these bugs will require a patch, which the team is feverishly working on now. We’ll have full details in our Patch notes, but here are some of the bigger ones...

• Some damage formulas  from Gear & Weapons are not functioning as intended.
• Some Support items are not functioning as intended.
• Jarra’s Wrath is, well… “kinda” OP (yeah, we know)

Finally, since we know this may have put a slight damper on this update for many of you, we have decided to extend Week 5 of the Cataclysm an extra week. You’ll now be able to play with all the current Inversions and Seasonal Store items exactly as they are until September 17th.

NOTE: As usual, this is not every...
