Scroll down to see the info from CraigTW.

Guess we have to wait a bit more for our DX11 and AA. At least they will have more time to fix the bugs out.

That's disappointing.

But given the instability many are reporting for MP, and the more quirky bugs in other areas, a delay is probably a good thing.

[Gregoshi]

Agreed. Seems like MP needs more luvin' than some graphics stuff.

Here's the latest:

Patch update history:

1.0 - Retail release.

1.1 -Deployed. It's a replacement hotfix for the one deployed earlier in the week. It will fix a few minor bugs, including the tutorial camera. It will not feature fixes for multiplayer, which are forthcoming in a later hotfix.

1.2 - NOW LIVE:

• All stats should report correctly
• All avatars being flagged as ‘dishonourable cowards’ fixed. This will be removed from all existing avatars. [Incidentally, this trait has no actual effect in-game]
• Avatar cost contributing to naval battle funds fixed.
• Occasional inability to add avatar skills has been fixed.
• Correct clan influence points now awarded for adjacent regions [server-side fix just carried out]

1.3 - COMING SOON. More info to follow.

Patch 2. More info to follow.

Hi all,

We’re pleased to announce that patch 1.3 will be going live at some point in the next couple of days. The update includes a number of fixes for issues identified in multiplayer, as well as a few general fixes too.

We’re cracking down on an issue the community identified where players could gain an advantage by “rage quitting” the game. Now, for match-made battles, the host will receive a win if the client uses ALT+F4 to exit the game.

If the host disconnects, neither player will receive a win. This is a partial fix for the problem, and we’re still working on it, but for now this will hopefully improve your online multiplayer experience.

The full list of additional fixes is below:

• Multiplayer - More game lobbies are now visible on the Battle List in Avatar Conquest mode.
• Multiplayer - More game lobbies are now visible on the Battle List in Multiplayer Campaign Mode.
• Multiplayer - Fix for crash when rearranging unit cards in battle lobby.
• Multiplayer Battle List - Fix for crash when [ALT] + [Tab]'ing / minimising the game when in a Battle List game lobby.
• Multiplayer Battle List - Fix for crash when changing the "Battle type" filter from "Classic Battles" to any other filter.
• Multiplayer Battle List - Fix for lag caused by selecting the "Classic Battles" tick box on the Host Battle setup screen (where the player names the game).
• Multiplayer Battles - Fix for UI bug where the back button did not function / was greyed out on the battle results screen leaving players stuck.
• Multiplayer Battles - Fixed for players having trouble joining 1v1 Match Made battles and being given a default army.
• Multiplayer Battles - Fix for Client crash if Host searches battle before Clients leave battle results screen in the Setup Team screen
• Multiplayer Battles - Fix for Client crash when Host kicks Client from the game while the Client is on the Retainer, Load Army or Save Army screen.
• Multiplayer Battles - Fix for rare crash when alliance goes under AI control due to player leaving the battle.
• Multiplayer Battles - Improved accessibility for players attempting to join a 1v1 Auto team land battle or Campaign drop in battle.
• Multiplayer Campaign - Fix for rare crash where player leaving battle causes crash for remaining players upon switch to AI control.
• Avatar - Fix for crash when [ALT] + [Tab]'ing / minimising the game on the Avatar customisation screen.
• Battles - Fix for rare multithreading crash caused by interaction between the UI and the game.
• Land Battles - Fix for crash in deployment phase caused by using the Increase Rank and Increase File buttons on a unit in Spear Wall formation.
• Land Battles - Fix for rare crash when positioning the mouse over unit proxies when attempting to dock units.
• Naval Battles - Fix for very rare crash when ordering ships.
• Campaign - fixed occasional end turn crash.
