Age of Empires 3: The WarChiefs patch v1.02 notes

Since the release of Age of Empires 3: The WarChiefs expansion back in October, there have been nothing but good feedback for the game. But, as what usually happens with games, users have been reporting certain bugs and glitches they’ve encountered in the game. Not to fret though, Ensemble Studios is already hard at work to bring you patch v1.02, which will fix some of the errors you’ve been experiencing in The WarChiefs expansion.

Sadly though, no, the patch isn’t out yet, but it will be out next month and you can rest assured that we will keep you posted once it comes out. So with that, we’ll bring you the list of changes you can expect to get once patch v1.02 comes out:

CLIENT FIXES

• Fixed mercenary selection in Saloons for custom maps.
• Better anti-aliasing support for NVIDIA GeForce 8 series cards.
• A number of Windows Vista compatibility issues fixed.
• Several low level network optimizations have been added.

BALANCE CHANGES

• Reduced Rodelero building bonus.
• Reduced Spanish shipment bonus.
• Reduced Cetan Bowman hitpoints by 10.
• Increased Kanya Horsemen hitpoints by 20.

NETWORK AND ESO FIXES

• ESO statistics tab now defaults to show statistics for the game you are playing.
• Decks are now limited to 32 per home city.
• Quick Search – the civilizations of other players are no longer shown when the initial match is made.
• Quick Search – games no longer follow the two minute resign rule and will count toward your rating as soon as they begin.
• Power Rating values will now update more quickly after a game.

Don’t fancy the whole primitive bow-and-arrow setting? Well, you can always check out other real-time strategy games like, say, Space Empires V or Arena Wars? But hey, that’s just me. Anyway, we’ll keep you posted for more developments so stay tuned.
