Hello everybody,
Rob here!
I reported a while back that we had two fixes for replays:
• Ranked units in Multiplayer battles and campaigns were not getting accounted for, thus they were counted as a “regular unit” with base stats; hence, why some of you noticed the sequence of events playing out differently in your replays.
• [Campaign Only] Stats bonuses to units from either weapon/armour upgrades for example and general skills were not getting accounted for, with a similar outcome like above.
Now as of Patch 8 some of you are still reporting problems. I’ve checked the two above and they appear to be fixed, so it looks like we may be dealing with some different edge cases. How widespread they’re I do not know, but it still needs addressing.
I would like to first state, that there could be a multitude of reasons why a replay is not in sync, there is never just one variable that is causing it all! Hence it needs to be approached on a case by case basis.
In order to hopefully pin this down, I will need, preferably, a good deal of information so we can easily compare any similarities and figure out the root of the problem.
If possible, please provide as much of the below information as possible. Also make sure before answering the question below that you’re on a mod free version of Rome 2, as this will skew the testing outcome:
