BUGS, Never ending BUGS!

BUGS!

from Elemental Forums

Hello

I don't know if there is any proper way to report bugs, so if anyone knows, pleas tell me.

I am always using the latest game version, but still i encounter endless amount of bugs.

While some bugs aren't affecting gameplay, others make it hard to play.

I hope someone from game developers reads this and they will repair the bugs in the next versions.

Bugs i've encountered so far:

1) In battle bugs:

There are many times that cursor is pointing on a specific tile, but the game shows that it's on another tile that is near by, not always the closest one, but some times it's two tiles away.

One more thing. Not a bug, but still frustrating... The grid in battle is barely noticeable.

2) Unit Editing bugs:

I often encounter bug that was in Fallen Enchantress and now is in Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes.

When i edit the new units, i cant choose their skills, i cant remove current skills and even if i press clear, i still can't choose new skills even though the old ones are gone.

I am not sure what is the reason for this bug, but it happens after i played a while, got most of researches and got many Edited/Created Units.

The new units, that can use heroes skills, are the most problematic. Even when i still could choose skills, after editing one of new units and saving him in game, he appeared as if he had nothing selected. No skills, no armor, nothing...

3) Quest bugs:

I've read that many encountered a bug where, when you want to come back later to finish the quest, the quest disappears from the map, but stays in the quest log.

I've encountered more frustrating bug! The game was working fine, till some point, but than suddenly i couldn't finish any quest i started.

Very similar problem to the one i described prior.

When i finish the quest (do the requested mission) the quest disappears from the map, i don't get the reword (usually) and it stays listed in the quest log. That happened to many quests near the end of the game.

4) Units movement bugs:

Sometimes there is a bug that i cant move a specific group (not because of some spell or terrain) no matter what i do, the group doesn't move.

The only way to move that group is to, separately move each unit from the group and than put them back in one group, after that i can move the group once again.

There is a bug when i can't change the unit destination point. Sometimes after clicking close to the unit i can change it's destination point and then choose a new destination point, but some times, no matter what i do, the destination point isn't changing until i skip the turn.

5) Not sure if these are bugs, but still they are frustrating!:

In battle as i said earlier the Grid is barely noticeable!

In game when two units are on the same tile there is no merge button! I have to move them to another tile to merge.

When choosing skills for a hero, the possible choices are lighted the same way as the ones i already have! That is very confusing and i constantly miss the skill i need because i thought that i already have it.

There are places in game that you cant move through even though it appears that there is a passage. If it's intended than it would help if there were a message saying that you can't pass there. The most frustrating part in it is that some of them show that you can pass when you click there, but the moment your unit reaches it, he stops and you can't click the tile next to him even though you could while he was farther away.

 

Thank you all.

Here is one Tattyhat that is hoping the next patch is purely a bug fix.  A absolutely fantastic game marred by a few remaining-on-going bugs.

you can click on the ARMY word to open a unit menagement window where you can arrange your troops as you like.

 

Another bug is: when you conquer an enemy city, sometimes the "Produce Growth/Research/Wealth/Mana" isn't enabled even if you've already researched the appropriate tech. Saving and reloading solves the problem.

Found one more frustrating thing...

Not sure is it's a bug or something intended, but it's very frustrating.

Sometimes when i take a quest and enter the battle (quest battle) the main hero dies before the battle begins.

Never happened in regular battles, but it happened many times in quest battles.

 

 

Does posts on this forum help? Are there really people that are going through these posts to collect information for the next fixes?

it does help, especially during the time before a new patch is released.

We definitely read them.  Ideally I would love to get save games that show these sorts of issues.  I often try to repro more vague descriptions like this and cant get it to reoccur.  If I cant get it to reproduce I dont have anything to give to a developer to fix.

So if anyone can get saves of issues like the one you mentioned, I would love to check it out.

This might not be a 'bug' per se, but it sure is wickedly annoying... 

 

When you finish researching a technology you get the tech screen even if you are in the middle of other things... Could the tech screen be represented with a popup on the side of the screen rather than a 'in your face' approach which currently occurs? I'm relatively certain others would agree here?

Yes, 100% agree, it would likely also mean being able to pick research with a normal mouse instead of always having the hourglass since the window usually loads while the start of the turn is still processing.

Reply #8 from Elemental Forums Top

Not top of the list, but I agree the hourglass when you're choosing research is annoying. Although I can see some people complaining that they missed that they had finished research.

Actually one of my pet peeves with Research is that if I'm browsing the tree and switch from Warfare to Magic and then exit, I will now be researching in the Magic tree, which wasn't actually my intention. I don't think you should have your previous choice deselected and something else automatically selected just because you've changed the branch you're looking at.

They could make it  so your end of turn doesn't work the first time you click it? Like if one of your cities become idle.

Tell me what you need and were to send and explain buggy save files ect.  Things need to be fixed!!

 

Firstly

When i first clicked New game and just tried out a "open sandbox game" (is that whats it called?) . Well everything seemed to work fine, not one bugg. And i thought all was swell and fixed.

 

The problems and BUGS

Then i started playing the scanario.... Bug after bug after bug and poor layout showed itself.

 

First sceanrio 1

- Like the companions that are forced on you and you have to make a lott of effort to not gett some1 in your army(cause you cant change that), the events leading to gett some1 in your army or not is more or less random(especially when you haven played before, and dont know the story) .

Like Gnarr in the road spitt , that you have to pass and automaticly trigger the kill and orge mission,,, and everywhere there i orgre roaming around sudenly atacking... and if that happens you cant gett K'uo Sian. And also not a lott of other characters i hear.

This random character stumble upp on and sudenly have in army and cant gett another character later,, keeps on happening in later chapters.

- There is a lott of equipment that arent working or im unsure if is working.. Like the posion vials, the sword of wrath deffintly dont work in version 1.60 that i always been playing(recently bought). Unsure if things suposed to increase combat experience work(though its not speciefied if its in combat or quests ,, just 25% experience for example,,,,, like The titans glass or practice sword with 10% experience).

 

Scenario 2 chapter 5 - >9 (?)

-There is offcourse the issue with the boat. For example it should be bether explained u need to build it as a unit.. i thought it was a bug when it dident arive.

-Then there is the whole wont respond to embarking on a beach thing. I finnaly figured out i could click relias and then land and it worked. But clicking with the boat on land or the upp arrow on units did not work. not the raise land thing ither

-(the raise and lower land, or changing land in general option,,,issent this just  screaming for making lott off bugs,, i mean crossing where you shouldent be able ,, or blocking yourself,, making a none fruitfull city working (chapter 9) ect=??? :q )

 

-Then theres the go to secret island first thing obviously jumping ahead of yourself in som quest... not sure if this mathered though.

- Several quests, after compleeting dont dissapear on map but stand as a quest scroll,, not responding if you move on them.. Like the wind temple and the guy with his army wanting to take your head (across the lake north for the fire temple)

 

- i aquired the TITAN SPELL that was to awesome and a fast way to win difficult battle in chapter 8 .Its the quest where you raid(do quests, kill ) three darkling villages. and gett a scroll of four togheter.

after compleeting this chapter and starting next map in chapter 9, the spell is gone,

 

Scenario 3 chapter 9 (on currently)

- In chapter 9 i  gott this DAriun the gray, level 7 but without anny traits??? Irritating rippoff!! i also heard this is supossed to be the same with several characters in the scenario..

 

-Also for some reason, i noticed that in picture my champions or\and heroes display red on stats that are a lott lower then they are supossed to be with curent equipment ect.,, when i hold over to gett info,,, there is no info on why this would be and all looks normal. Also if i click on an item in the hero\champions equipment all stats return to normal

 

- Then there is the city with zero production and all from 3 to 30 people( changed when i restarted scenario). Is this supossed to be?

Also you can "cheat" and rush production off orchyard and gett som corn and growth going...     Waht is right and wrong here,, can this trigger bugg?

 

I gott most saves from all scenarios, lett me know if i can have them sent.

 

Sorry if im a little diffused in my descriptions or explaining.

 

Lott of stuff that need to gett fixed,, but if everything worked it would be one of my all time favourite games :)

 

Hope it soon will be
