Introducing the new patch for CONTASION 2 and Online


I'm pleased to announce the new update for CONTASION 2 and Online. Thank you to the players who submitted bugs through email. I've collated these and less than one month later, and here's what's fixed.

As explained before, players who purchased the game before yesterday will be given £10,000 to spend on anything in Pliston. Simply start up the game and the money will be credited to your account.

What's new?


This first official update only patches the bugs, with small content included. I couldn't have added anything huge in such a short amount of time, but I've got dozens of concepts that I want to make a reality in the next update. Stay tuned.

CONTASION 2 now supports multiple licences!
Did you buy the game with the intention to put it on multiple devices in your house? The game now supports multiple licences. Simply run the game and enter in the key provided by Steam, once you validate the game once, feel free to launch the game on another device on your network. The first device that was activated will broadcast the licence to all devices on your network.

Windows 10, 8, 8.x crashing issues


Due to the engine which developed CONTASION 2, people running on an OS newer than Windows 7 will experience game crashes within minutes of gameplay. However, there is a quick and easy way to fix this:
1) Right click on your Contasion 2 executable (.exe)
2) Select 'properties'
3) Go to compatibility
4) Run the program in compatibility mode
5) Select Windows XP (SP2) or Windows 7
6) Apply and OK
I understand that this can be tedious but I'll be working on a permanent fix for this. For more information, click here

Languages


Players may experience bugs if they are creating CONTASION Online accounts with letters not supported by the English QWERTY keyboard. For now, please ensure that every string is entered with letters on the traditional QWERTY keyboard. This includes: Online names, pet names, appeal statements, wishing well wishes and passwords.
