Next Round of Publish 97 Updates to TC1
Posted on March 23, 2017 by UO Dev Team
Greetings,
Today we have updated TC1 with the latest version of Publish 97 which includes the following changes.
We are incredibly grateful to those who have taken the time to head over to TC1 to test and give feedback on Publish 97.
At this stage we have incorporated all major feedback related to pet training progress and will be moving to the specifics of pet customization. While our major focus is on pet customization, it is still important to get feedback on the latest changes to pet training progress. We will provide pet training advancement gates to speed up the process, but it is still incredibly important to get feedback on the changes we made to how training progress works.
We’ll be on TC1 from this afternoon through the weekend so stop by and say hello!
As always we appreciate your time and be sure to send us your feedback!
See you in Britannia,
UO Team
