No news in a while; I'm worried- worried enough to post this anyway.

Message from the devs on Discord: 

very soon™

The game yet breathes.

I am very excited to be proven wrong.

C’est sur que si le jeu fonctionnait correctement il y aurait plus de personnes pour jouer en ligne. Moi si le jeu remarche un jour je veux bien tester une partie en ligne ça pourrait être cool .

Glad they still working on the game. However, I have lost interest at this time. Once there is some new updates, or content, I will return. Until then I will cycle thru Old World, CivVi and Millennia.

Barely, but it breathes indeed.

Potato, thank you for your videos about the game. 

No matter what you wrote, people prefer to watch videos, they don't read anymore. 

I hope you'll keep creating content about Humankind, I think it's a great help to the community.

I'm curious about what will come out in the end. I don't think the dev team abandoned the game out of nowhere, they must be working on new ways to improve it. And the fact that they are taking their time might actually be a good indicator for the quality of their work.

Some suspect that Amplitude is working on Endless Legend 2, which I personally would like. Hopefully they'll make a better Humankind out of it.

If the game's design isn't scatter brained it'll be fine. And yes I'm talking about the game being scatterbrained not the devs, that was Humankind's biggest problem.

I think that's more the job for a mod, currently the game has some more serious issues to deal with first. I would like to be hopeful, but I don't consider it an urger matter. Let's wait and see what happens next.

I was disappointed by the negligibility of TWR.

As for me, I hope there will be not expansion but some rework again (especially infrastructure and district cost rework). As expansion leads to tons of new bugs and as showed TWR, vanilla is much more fun. But now vanilla is enough with mechanics, only need to rework them and add make multiplayer more balanced

It's a shame that battles that are only 1v1 in multiplayer, and the buildings that don't give you the feeling that you've building something great like in civ you have that feeling. These factors make the game feel dead to people in my mind ... its easy to fix it 

Are we sure this game isn't dead?

You misspelled Streaming team.  

Yesterday on the discord HK-news channel the devs released post about HK 3rd birthday they mention they are still working on the next update "but are not quite ready to go into details yet".

So it would appear there is a glimmer of life.  

We got a new update confirmed! Yuhu!
The game has yet to die and it will keep going for some time. I Can't wait for the new update

@Fullscreen_Lurker I just recently got into Humankind, and I was also confused about the ability to Culture Shift in different eras.  But for my first game I tried to retrace the history of the Olmecs and just kept choosing them.  I built mostly buildings only they would make and tried to envision how they would exist in the modern era.  It was pretty fun!

Such a shame. The current buggy state of the game makes me not want to play it. Since they claim to still be working on it, I can't believe they haven't even dropped a small bug fix patch in 9 months. It's unprofessional.

I'm atill waiting. Haven't played since Mar 27. Don't intend to play again until I have solid proof there is something happening.

​Daarkarrow, can you please give us any news about the update? When can we expect something? Why it's taking so long?

Unfortunately, I cannot share much news about it. We had a day in mind for a release but we needed to push it back due to certain things that happened (we are checking when it could be a good time). When possible we will be sharing more information about it. Really sorry about this.

hello

 for us

two major bugs

 multiplayer disconnecting after 5 turns and blocking turns in solo before the last era

Oui par exemple d’être d’éjecter de la partie et à chaque fois impossible de passer au tour suivant sans crash

I do not see a bug thread for Humankind? I am using 9 mods as follows:

Deep Sea Reloaded

VIP

Super Culture Pack

Compatibility patch Super Pack & VIP

Long Range Nukes

ENC-Reloaded

ENC&VIP Compatibility Patch

Era Star Overhaul

Era Star VIP Compatibility Patch

Several issues involving outposts. First one, if a outpost sits for a few turns a player cannot add it to a city as it goes negative -50-200. If I try to make a city out of same outpost even with 50-75 food, -100-300 or more. Why is this happening when it should not? Has to be something wrong with the code, I enjoy this game a lot but these issues are horrible to deal with.

Costs of units and the instability they can cause has to be made to effect cities less. Perhaps less instability from certain structure adding to the ones that do not cause issues?? If I am making sense at all, please consider some sort of fix. Multi-player has a number of issues but it has been a while since I played with my son. He frowns when I ask knowing the issues with bugs. 

On endless setting, around turn 400 or so, I have to quit the game and restart PC in order to keep playing. The turn never ends otherwise, once I restart I can play maybe another 30-50 turns before restarting again. This indicates Memory leaks for sure, if I recall right from my own programming days. 

We need to have a way to increase map and territory sizes in game. No mods will fix this as the game will crash. I noticed it stops ending turns if I use the map extension mod. If I set it for 150-200 ocean tiles it does same thing. 

I am running a 980 video card a bit old, i7 7820x CPU and 32 gigs of ram - I will be upgrading the PC which was built almost 7 years ago or maybe 8. lol System is water cooled and has worked flawlessly over the years. 

With our crap economy right now I simply cannot afford any upgrades.

 

  Please come up with some fixes for this game! I am a retired guy who is bored as heck. :>^D

A Nice Expansion would be most appreciated, nah I do not want much lol :P

Thanks Fox

I will assume that some of your bugs are due to the mods. I cannot ensure that all of those mods are updated or if they work well (as sometimes they require some compatibility between them)
