If you don't plan on having wanderers in your party then by all means, go ahead.

RIP to all the wanderers out there. You will all be missed.

 

[Warlord123123]

Good. Perhaps I might test beta build now.

LOL, well i think i will wait a little more then

But is this 100% bug in all cases? In the beginning when I tried the beta, I think I had some wanderers. It was a new game. Are you talking about an ongoing campaign?

Sorry TW communications are at an all time low, so Soon™ is the best answer you can get here

And the Soon(c) has spoken P.S. Saw your guide on workshops, big ++ for that I just hope TW won't change game dynamics for that particular item in the near future....

Not sure it can be - they don't generally release something as buggy as 1.5.8 into live. But it is buggy enough that it might be quite a large hotfix. The steam.live.test would suggest a hotfix for 1.5.7; steam.beta.test was updated half an hour ago.

You know them well

First thank you for that, I work hard to give everyone good information, now to the bad news.

Icon hotfix failed

If you validate the local data after the update, you'll discover you have to download 5.7Gigs worth of files.

 

[MArdA TaleWorlds]

Icon hotfix failed

We are aware. It seems the reason is not something we were thinking. Can you verify the game files to see if that makes a difference? Thanks!

Not that well - I was optimistic for a wanderers fix today .

understood will do now and test again
Validate complete only took 2 minutes since I had already downloaded patch, testing in game.

 

[Brocephus]

Typically, when I am fixing a bug, I like to replicate it and then confirm that it is no longer present under the replication conditions. No charge for that one.

No luck after validating
I tested on a 1.5.7 game, a 1.5.8 game before hotfix, but I have not tested a fresh game since hotfix

Strange, i tried on older saves. And after playing 20-30 mins on High/Very High Settings nothing wrong happened with loading screens. Before it was unplayable after 15 mins on medium.

EDIT: By older saves i mean capaing started on 1.5.5ish.

I tested before making an update video after last hotfix failed and played for 31 minutes and perfect, then in middle of recording the video boom it hit, so I almost missed it too. Took 32 minutes my first time to hit, 2nd time 3 minutes.

Will they fix the raiding bug? Whenever I raid a village that I am at war with, it stops and tells me I am not at war with that faction, even tho i am.

Can you check and confirm this is fixed after patch?
