Re: Mother of all bugs--missile and melee
Everyone keep in mind Shogun(?), the moderator over at the Com, said CA would make an appeal to Activision for permission to release a preliminary fixlist/readme file to the public while the patch is being tested. If permission is given the readme file should be posted sometime this week.

Humph. It most certainly saps out the fun from the game.

Re: Mother of all bugs--missile and melee
Did some tests greek peltasts v triarii.
All grassy flatland fire at will off,skirmish off.Alt double click to charge.
peltast at 36 att kill 97 triarii vanilla kill 36
peltast at 36 att kill 113 triarii vanilla kill 7
peltast at 26 att kill 107 triarii vanilla kill 46
peltast at 26 att kill 90 triarii vanilla kill 37
Then I tried charging the peltasts and once they were engaged, alt clicked to see if they switched to sec weapon.
peltast at 36 att kill 113 triarii vanilla kill 65
peltast at 36 att kill 46 triarii vanilla kill 29
peltast at 26 att kill 58 triarii vanilla kill 30
peltast at 26 att kill 87 triarii vanilla kill 27
In conclusion the peltasts would use secondary stats in melee if forced by alt click but only after charge phase.Seems the code will not select the most appropriate stats for any particular melee phase.
Re: Mother of all bugs--missile and melee
You know I've bit my tongue regarding criticisms against CA for awhile... And I guess I'll continue to do so until after the patch, but this is gearing up be the last straw.
Re: Mother of all bugs--missile and melee
Oh dear. Sometimes it is best not to know these things. And I was waiting for the patch before reinstalling on my new PC. Looks like I'll be waiting for the expansion now. After all the hassel of getting them to fix the bug in VI - where everybody died at the same age -I'm not too hopeful.
I do wish CA would dump Activision so they could properly support an otherwise excellent game.

I mean... err... well...
GAH!

Re: Mother of all bugs--missile and melee
One more thing when you play on VH AI gets +7 at melee attack stats,
but because we found out that missile units (peltasts, legions, ...) use their missile stats there should be no difference between easy-medium-hard-very hard am i right?
