WH40K: Rogue Trader – Update 1.4.0.199 is Live

Developer Owlcat Games released the latest update 1.4.0.199 for turn-based CRPG Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader. It addresses the commonly reported bugs, inactive weapon sets, and the availability of the Heartless.

In the Rogue Trader: Lex Imperialis DLC, Lord Commanders can get their hands on a new escort ship, the Heartless. However, due to your own actions, it is basically wrecked when it goes under your command in late Act II. With the needed repairs, the ship only becomes available in Act IV, which does not feel too satisfying. Thus, one of the fixes changes that.

WH40K: Rogue Trader – Update 1.4.0.199 Includes: 

• Based on player feedback, the Heartless, new escort ship from Lex Imperialis, will now appear instantly rather than after finishing repairs in Act IV. Its stats will be a bit lower while in Act II, to represent its damaged state;
• It is no longer possible to land on Thassera without Solomorne under certain circumstances;
• Solomorne no longer inserts himself into some dialogues when he’s not in the party;
• Fixed cases of incorrect behavior of Precognition ability that would sometimes prevent the player from ending the turn;
• Fixed severe FPS drop caused by unexpected interaction between Relentless Blaze and Will to Live. Also fixed Relentless Blaze not counting Soul Burn as burning;
• Fixed desyncs caused by saving during the preparation round;
• Inactive weapon sets no longer provide the weapon bonuses to characters in addition to the active set bonuses.

Update: the game also received a small patch 1.4.0.200, which added the following: 

• After speaking with Proctor Adriana Yeager in Act IV, further plot progress could become blocked for the players with the Adeptus Arbites origin in some cases – fixed. If you experienced this bug, speak to Adriana Yeager and then to Clerk Tertius Quart to advance in the quest.
