stone10 -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (12/29/2011 5:35:06 AM)

What do you mean by "German AI supported in fight against soviet human "? The German AI got +100% WE like the Soviet AI did against human?




doomtrader -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (12/29/2011 11:00:48 AM)

AI will be more careful in sending it's tanks forward.




miki -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (12/29/2011 11:36:13 AM)

Hi Doom

Any hint about patch release date?

Best regards
Miki




doomtrader -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (12/29/2011 11:54:36 AM)

Most probably mid of January




miki -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (12/29/2011 11:56:22 AM)

Great news!

Thanks!  [:)]

Saludos
Miki




doomtrader -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (12/29/2011 11:58:02 AM)

Also first post updated




waichou -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (12/29/2011 1:34:37 PM)

Good to see that most of the community suggestions are included in the patch. I will continue to participate activly to this forum, it is not useless ! [:)]

Thanks,




Numdydar -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (12/29/2011 4:51:45 PM)

Great fixes to replacements based on supply. While this still allows units to be able to fight at full effectiveness, it at least prevents them from recovering their full strength. So it is a huge step in the right direction.

Totally agree with waichou's comments. Thanks for taking our feedback and using it to improve the game.

battlevonwar -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/4/2012 9:13:20 AM)

Doomtrader, thank you for getting this patch out quickly. I am happy to see the care put into this game. It has great potential to be a staple diet for many other WW2 ETO Lovers.

By the way, will old saved games and PBEM games be compatible with the patch?




freeboy -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/6/2012 4:50:40 AM)

quick ?, will the server games in progress be able to be updated ?




Razz1 -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/6/2012 5:11:55 AM)

No, you will have to start a new game.




doomtrader -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/6/2012 12:34:18 PM)

It is not judged yet.




freeboy -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/6/2012 1:45:11 PM)

what do u mean?




gwgardner -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/6/2012 9:48:44 PM)

he don't know yet




doomtrader -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/8/2012 10:44:46 PM)

First post updated again

I'm going to spent some time on adjusting starting level technologies for all scenarios, so if you are interested, jump to this thread:

Hairog -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/13/2012 7:05:42 AM)

How about interdiction by air units? Any possibility of this Doom?




doomtrader -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/13/2012 10:15:44 AM)

Could you please evaluate your question?




Hairog -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/13/2012 7:45:24 PM)

How about I'll start another thread so as not to bog this thread down.

doomtrader -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/13/2012 8:11:33 PM)

Not for this patch.
It is going to be a major change for AI, and probably pretty important for gameplay.




freeboy -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/14/2012 5:06:09 AM)

any thoughts on reducing the sevearity of the red army failure...? in the early weeks of hostilities??
hope patch is comingalong well.. good luck  




freeboy -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/15/2012 3:25:37 PM)

there is no note above regarding the uber panzer corps... are you having any luck toning them down?
In a test game against USSR IA, I had event give me level 3 panzer  corp that STARTS at over 30  a few wins and now its the game equivilent of the death star!
" If you only knew the power of the dark side"

Would also like to know the status of this for the patch.




freeboy -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/15/2012 4:51:06 PM)

just a word.. it came in level three, I was at two.. reds are either one or early level two... the best I have seen is in previous run through at end of forst winter.. we  are entering now first winter.. they start the better red corps.. biggest I have seen may be 11 or 12...
so a 40-50 just walks up and eats stuff.. silly really to think of a panzer corp.. or pnazer gren army, that does not stop in urban/ fortified and let the inf attack... tanks suck in cities when the enemy has real defenses\
ok blah blah blah.. sorry to ramble.
I am having a great time playing this simple game!!! even in multiplayer!!!




JLPOWELL -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/15/2012 7:27:32 PM)

Re armor upgrade, from the notes it looks like you get a level 3 division instead of a level 3 corps, much more reasonable. The free level 3 corps was basically a T-Rex and really skewed play balance if it showed up. I also see you cannot split units of higher level than your current tech. Another curb on Uber Panzers.




doomtrader -> RE: patch 1.01 - Work in progress (1/16/2012 1:46:05 PM)

Before trying to implement some kind of eff. cap (which in my opinion is wrong) I would like to see how the game behave with changes already implemented.
