Patch Notes e1.5.4

[Terco_Viejo]

Yes, you are right, I also mentioned same thing and already said armor amounts are low. I did many many tests with different armor amounts, and "low" was my conclusion in simple words. However, to me %35 is not enough. You need thousands to be invincible, this seems like not relevant but, it clearly shows us sky is the limit when it comes to armor.

There are 4 types of armor in game; head, body, arm, legs. I think, most heavily armored unit should have 155 for body and 100-155 for other types. And it should scale down to 30 for lowest protection armor like fur coats, 5-10 for non-protecting clothing and finally zero for naked. (While doing that, considering the materials -as you said- should be required of course.)

---

Edit: If devs implement such thing and change armor amounts, there will be other people to complain about how long are the battles and how overpowered are some units. This is a double-edged knife, you can't make everyone happy. At this point, mods take command to make more people happy with the game they are playing.

With that +35% I have been quite conservative ; with those values you mention it would be a perfect scenario for me.

Save game files are now categorized by their game in the UI.

Apparently this change makes savegames save some data they haven't been saving before, for example if you use any mods that change banners, once loaded, are now being saved to the savegame, and even after disabling the mod, banners still stay saved because of this, as savegame itself is being changed for some reason.

Can this please be looked into by someone so that it doesen't have this behaviour, as it didn't in 1.5.3 ? This change doesen't save any loading time, but breaks other things.

I can't access my brother's inventory in this build. I want to upgrade his armor and weapons, but can't do anything with his gear. This sucks big time and I hope is just a bug.

Just letting you all know, when playing Rescue Your Family quest if you clear hideout and talk with your brother and if you SAVE game before pressing Continue to talk with Radagos, then this save game will have a corrupted quest. If you load this save game the quest will stay in your journal but hideout and your siblings will be nowhere in world. So, be patient, talk with that guy and save later.

Did you miss some stuff out? This update is 1.2gb, seems a lot for just those fixes.

All the muscle the Vlandian Footman has gained from his improved athleticism is affecting the download size

Same, and some people say 1,7GB on Steam. ?

 

[Noschkov]

Perhaps some preparation for the next update so they can test some background stuff that they will need in the future

I thought they were just really progressive and were making a statement. Not the Vlandian way?

Has anyone else noticed cavalry randomly splitting into other groups in battle?

For example, on the party screen I've put my cavalry units in what I consider to be their appropriate groups, a few in 'Heavy Cavalry' (group VIII), others in the 'Light Cavalry'(group VII), and the rest in 'Cavalry'(group III). At the beginning of a battle and whenever I give them movement orders they all just get mixed up, troops randomly splitting from one group to join another and vice versa, as though the AI is trying to make two equally sized groups. It messes up my whole set up.

Does anybody else experience this?
