The Norse colony sim game Frozenheim is now out of Steam Early Access. While the small indie development team, Paranoid Interactive, did its job of delivering the best possible experience, the game’s full launch brought about more issues than the company expected. This is the reason why Hotfix 1.0.1.4 was deployed to resolve some of the post-launch issues.
So, what are the major bugs that got fixed in Hotfix 1.0.1.4? In this update, a fix for waves that were not spawning on island maps in some cases is included. Another is the fix for an issue where players were unable to gather resources on some maps due to deposits being underground.
One of the things that make Frozenheim enjoyable is its multiplayer aspect. The idea of raiding other players’ territories is fun and exciting. That said, this update addresses some issues with multiplayer as well, such as crashes and loading problems in multiplayer games.
