Title Update = DONE!

by

Early Tuesday morning we received news that the title update had officially passed certification and was ready for release. After some extensive testing and fixing (or as some might say “tinkering”) the update is now ready for release. In theory the update should go live Wednesday at 2AM PST however I’m not sure if that’s exactly the time, either way it comes out December 24th at some time of the day

Some of the issues that we’ve addressed with this update are:

  • Saved data loss issues
  • Quick Match/Custom Match multiplayer games not working/displaying error messages
  • Xbox LIVE games dropping unexpectedly
  • Arena Master achievement will now unlock after any mixed arena matches.
  • Overall network performance improvements
  • A few crash bugs
  • NXE related issues
  • Max experience cap lifted
  • Boomerang exploit is now resolved
  • Alien Hominid can now drop the pitchfork!

    • There are other issues as well and I’ll be gathering the full list and making another update as soon as I can gather all the info together. On behalf of everyone here at The Behemoth I want to thank those who helped out with awesome feedback and support. Although we couldn’t give you daily updates or an exclusive look into the inner workings of how a title update is developed and released we hope that the information that was provided helped inform everyone a little bit more on the process. Thanks again, and we hope you all have a safe holiday break!

    1. Um yeah…i just got a “Game no longer Available” message…again. It’s to the point where i would rather get a refund than to keep waiting for this game to be fixed.

    2. So does this mean I can attach my hard drive to my friend\’s 360 and play it there without loosing all of my data?

      Thanks for getting this out before the holidays!

    4. just tried a 4 player match online and it ran perfectly. i never ran into the saved data issue like other people, but the networking seems drastically improved.

      thanks behemoth.

    7. it means you can keep on earning XP indefinitely. There is no longer a cap. This should help the leaderboards start meaning something again, since lots of people turboed up to the max using that darn boomerang!

    10. Awesome! I just booted up CC and I saw an update request. I had to jump on here to see what was tweaked. This game still rocks!

    11. Hello to all and nadolig llawen. (Welsh)

      So Microsoft have final singed off your code with there private key.

      Good for you. To day we have witnessed great surprise.
      I dint think you would have made it this year. But again you manged to difi the results.

      I will defiantly put in some hours this holiday playing it.

      Happy holidays

    12. @SynGamer; I hear that TB tweaked the network code, so you might want to double-check your network settings 🙂

    13. Wow, about time. You’d think that after getting $15 a pop off people a company would care more about fixing the main draw of the game.

      Then again, when you sell a product that people have no way of returning, why bother with customer service?

    14. Wait, you “fixed” the boomerang exploit?

      Well that’s kind of lame. Now I can’t update until I level my characters sufficiently.

    15. Or you would think that trolls would stay off blogs on Christmas Eve but hey I guess when you’re lacking brain cells you make claims of poor customer service even though the behemoth has one of the best customer support systems for console games, then yeah sure whatever you say

    16. Awesome! Thanks so much for releasing this! The boomerang exploit was fun while it lasted, but I think the game will actually be more fun without it. You guys are awesome, and THANKS SO MUCH for making this amazing game in the first place!

    17. I’m so happy this is Finally fixed. This summer release is finally going to get some winter time multiplayer action! Hopefully MS and all developers will take a look at the process of saying a game is complete, and necessary updates.

    18. Yay! Nicely done gentleman! Castle Crashers has given me and a bunch of my friends a lot of good times this year. Merry Christmas, and thanks!

    21. i hope that all the people that won’t get the update now in order to exploit the game more will lose their data in the process 🙂

    24. One thing I noticed… the Bear’s “Jump+Y” magic attack. It should be a downward shot of its ‘snowball’ just like all the other character’s magic, right?

      So why am I just going into the tornado every time I try it?
