Ericbabe, are the patches now offical and part of the purchase version?

I was in a similar position as yours, waiting for the real patch to come (with the difference that I already had the game and have been playing it in order to learn it) before starting a serious campaign. But I couldn't wait any longer, and since ericbabe said that this is very likely the final 1.2 release candidate, I decided to download it and start playing seriously. And I can assure you that the game is in very good shape right now. I would reccomend you to get the game and start playing and learning it. This game undoubtedly has some special 'charm' and If I were you I wouldn't loose the opportunity to invest these holidays enjoying it.

v1.2.18 Beta Now Available - 1/10/2006 10:00:51 PM

Status: offline 		Hi all,

The v1.2.18 Beta is now available in the Members' Club. Here's the list of changes since v1.2.17:

==================================
v1.2.18 Change List (January 10, 2006)
==================================

Changes 1.2.17->1.2.18
--------------------

* Can no longer disband POW's or units on loan
* Added NOVALIDATE to .ini file options; if NOVALIDATE=1, then this computer will send non-guaranteed messages during multi-play. This will speed up play, but may cause the game to be less stable if packets are being dropped between server/client.
* Detailed combat AI now considers making formation changes more frequently, but is a bit more cautious in each case.
* Fixed bug in detailed combat AI's valuation of attacking garrison units
* Now properly clearing AI's undo buffer
* Fixed bug in AI picking provinces during terms-of-surrender treaty construction
* Fixed m-player bug involving units retreating from detailed combat
* Increased siege damage and chance of initiating siege combat by about 25%
* Maximum damage from a single fire attack is now limited to the strength of the targeted unit divided by 2.
* AI treaty evaluation now places less value on long-term treaty clauses.
* Building a development in a province where there is currently zero levels of that development now costs an additional 50 money.
* Doubled the iron and timber cost of Gun developments.
* Added an iron cost to Wall developments.
* AI will now ignore Rally Locations set by a human player or AI player if there are any enemy units in its capital.
* Frigates now have an anti-privateering function. At the end of every movement phase, each frigate has a 20% chance of destroying one non-allied privateer located in the same movement area. (This destruction is reported in the frigate's and privateer's player's Events Report.)
* Reduced the effective ranges of units in detailed combat. Most infantry now fire effectively only up to three hexes away. Rifle/Jager infantry can fire effective four hexes away. Cavalry can fire effectively only two hexes away. Range of artillery has been reduced so that regular artillery and horse artillery have an effective range of 5 hexes; howitzers, an effective range of 3 hexes; and heavy artillery, an effective range of 6 hexes.
* Massed Artillery upgrades now only increase maximum size of artillery by 16% each. (These improvements are still cumulative with each other.)
* Square Firepower upgrade now makes squares only do 1/2 damage (an improvement from the 1/3 damage they used to do.)

I registered my copy of Crown of Glory with Matrix Games. And downloaded the latest 1.2.18 patch for said game. But every time I try to install it, it rejects my serial (why is it even asking for a serial, as a patch for users with registered games only?). I don't get it.

Any and all help would be appreciated.

I have the same problem, just got this great game in Australia, a couple of days ago. I have registered in the members section and add this game to "my games" then went to the registered downloads.

Got the latest beta, but it won't except by serial number :(

Do I have to what for another build because I just became a meber today?

Cheers :)

I have been playing Imperial Glory but it did not have the lasting game play to keep me coming back for more. CoG however has hit a mark with the type of game that I was looking for, for this era!

So I have been playing it non-stop over my holidays - then I read about the beta and though cooool. Then it would not work and I was devastated!

Thanks Erik for the quick reply, will keep and eye on the thread and all those bloody French Corps, as well.

Cheers, Dasara II

Status: offline 		Is there ever going to be an official release? I put this game down shortly before the patch because of all the bugs and have been waiting patiently for a final patch. I didn't want to sign up for yet another website just to download a beta patch nor want to beta test the patch for, what is it going on now, 4 months. Any word? No offense but this is getting past the point of ridiculous. While I appreciate the fact you are trying to get it as good as you can, this seems like an incredible case of scope-creep. Can't you lock down the major features and leave the tweaks to point updates?

I bught my Crown of Glory today from polish distributor of this game (Nicolas Game)
My password has been accepted and I can install Crown of Glory (It's 1.10 version). But I can't install the last beta patch - it says the same: "password is invalid". I can't register this game too - I see: “Key Already Used”. I sent a note to the matrix support email with my serial number but no response so far.

I hope you're right. As much as I appreciate all the work, the project is taking on a "gilding the lily" aspect. I think a number of knowledgeable gamers are waiting for the patch before they buy - if they still have it on theor screen.

Cookies are enabled, I have disabled any adware or virus scannning but still cannot get to the link.

Any help would be appreciated. Is there any other places where this file can be gotten?

Yes to both of your questions. I tried to download the GGWAW patch from the same area (which I registered previously), and I'm having the same problem. I tried to download the COG 1.1 patch from the regular download area just to test there wasn't a problem at my end, and I had no problems.

I am also experiencing this problem! I was able to download from the members section on Tuesday but I have not been able to download anything from the registered download over the last 3 days (even a readme file)?

I was hoping that they were in the process of uploading another version of the beta and put a block on the download but I am thinking that there is a problem now!

Are you going to solve problem with polish serial numbers ?
I can't register too - is it the same problem ?
