Hi Catanians,
In this Developer Update, we provide you with information on known issues and ways to reduce their impact. We will also update you on the steps we are taking to address these issues.
Thank you very much for your feedback on client version 2.3.2!
Our team is currently addressing some display issues with the prestige ranks at the end of the game. We understand that this has caused some confusion and frustration, but rest assured that we are actively working on a solution. Once the fix is implemented on our servers, you won't have to worry about seeing everyone as a Grandmaster anymore. There's no need to download a new client as this will be a server-side fix. We'll keep you posted on the progress and let you know as soon as the prestige ranks are displayed correctly again. Thanks for your patience and understanding!
We have received reports of a trading glitch in Singleplayer games where the A.I. does not wait for the human player to respond. If you encounter this issue, kindly exit the game and reload the savegame for that scenario. The A.I. will function correctly again afterward. We are working on a solution for it in the meantime.
We recently found out that some older versions of the game were causing some issues. But no worries! We're working hard to improve the platform and we've got a solution. After the next client update, we'll only allow the latest version of the game to connect to the servers. So, if you have an older version, just make sure to update it before you play to avoid any problems in the future.
Our team is currently focused on reducing the amount of time it takes to find a match, and we will keep you updated on our progress. As a result of the migration, our block lists have drastically expanded, leading to slower matchmaking times. Some Catanians have block lists with over 240 entries. Our ultimate objective is to create a stable and enjoyable platform for our users. This means we will have to make a decision on how to handle this in the future.
