Game Update: Late August 2020

This is a small update with fixes to several technical issues. The update only affects the Steam and PlayStation 4 versions of the game. (The next patch will include these fixes in the Nintendo Switch version as well.)

--[PS4] To play the game online on PS4, you no longer need a PlayStation+ subscription (Sony no longer requires us to require it.)

--[Steam and PS4; will be fixed in a later patch on Switch] Fixed a crash that could happen from being in practice mode, then playing a ranked game, then the crash could happen as the game would try to return you to practice mode afterwards.

--[Steam and PS4; will be fixed in a later patch on Switch] Fixed a case where the server would sometimes fail to check your ping correctly, which could then result in you getting matched with people with bad pings. This was more likely to happen to players who played for more than 1 hour in a session, but was possible to happen before that too.

--[Steam and PS4; will be fixed in a later patch on Switch] Fixed a case where you could be in the queue for online matches according to the UI on your screen, but secretly you were not in the queue and would never get any matches. You could leave the queue and rejoin it to fix this, but now when this situation arises, the UI will not show you as being in the queue. Instead, you’ll get a popup saying to try joining the queue again.  

--[Steam and PS4; will be fixed in a later patch on Switch] Fixed a case where "View friend request" from the pause menu would do nothing, when chosen right after denying a first friend request.

--[PS4] Fixed the trophy "Hex of Murkwood: Stack poison 3 times as Argagarg".
(It tried to award the trophy to the victim, rather than to the Argagarg player. Oops.)

--[PS4] You can no longer wrongly receive trophies by watching replays.

--[Steam] the loading screen with the dragon icon is back, when launching the app. The free-to-play patch accidentally replaced this with a black screen.

--[Steam and PS4; will be fixed in a later patch on Switch] Slight framerate improvement any time Quince is on the screen at all.

--[Steam and PS4; will be fixed in a later patch on Switch] Valerie’s painter costume now has correct “on fire” graphics (was missing the orange inner rim light).

--[Steam and PS4; will be fixed in a later patch on Switch] Fixed a crash in boss rush mode when Midori picks the Dragon Claws powerup, then transforms into a dragon.
