EA releases Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars Patch 1.09
Electronic Arts finally released Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars Version 1.09 Patch for both Games for Windows and Mac users, with enough bug fixes and balance changes that make it worth the wait. As hinted before, the capacity of Harvesters significantly changed and some infantry units got buffed. Grenadier Squads and Commandos, among others, are deadlier than ever.
Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars’ patch took care of annoying bugs, like one that allowed players to detect enemy structures even through the shroud by exploiting the Set Rally Point marker. However, what most competitive C&C followers would take note of is the 42% drop of Harvesters’ carrying capacity. It takes 8 seconds less to complete a gathering cycle, but income rate still lowered by around 35%.
Aside from the change in economy, it’s also important to know which units got affected by the patch if you want to be on top of your game. The Mammoth Tank, for example, is now less effective in changing targets after its turret turn rate was reduced – jumping into battle with these big babies without considering the nerf be a disaster.
For those in the Brotherhood of Nod, the Tiberium Vapor Bomb may be more attractive now that it can cause 140% more damage. Cooldown time also significantly increased, but making use of its improved power during crucial moments should prove to be devastating. Balance changes happened across the board, like the Scrin Phase Field support power losing its ability to affect infantry, but gains 50% faster cooldown time.
Some maps like the Barstow Badlands,Tournament Tower, Pipeline Problems, and Tiberium Gardens III (Kane Edition) were also rebalanced, but our favorite would have to be the brand new Wrecktropolis multiplayer map this patch introduced. Wrecktropolis is a big ruin, the perfect playground for up to four players.
We can go on and on about the nice changes in Version 1.09, but you probably want to find the patch yourself, so just click on the Read link below to see the complete changelog and download links from the Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars‘ website.
