Entitlement
We are actively looking into reports of players not having or losing ownership of Truth Quest. Unfortunately this is not something that we have been able to replicate completely in house, but we are still investigating and working with the community to resolve this problem. Thank you to those who have and continue to provide information to our community team on this topic.
Despite this we have been able to make some modifications for Hotfix 1(this update):
- Small improvements to entitlement for all platforms
- There were modifications to general entitlement checks throughout the game
- There were modifications to general entitlement checks throughout the game
For those who have encountered this problem there are few items we can recommend to try, that have assisted other community members:
- Reinstalling the game
- Time. Some have reported that eventually the purchase “went through”. With no additional changes or downloads occurring
Thank you for your continued support! As always, be sure to join the conversation at the official forums and let us know what you want to see next in the waters of Maneater or report any issues you may be experiencing.
