Hi everyone,
This patch adds a number of game-changing features, namely Battle Tasks and Faction Bases (to all games in the series). In addition to these, there were many patches and other updates (listed below). I am very happy that we have such an active Community that really motivates us to develop the Age of Fear series!
CHANGE LOG:
- NEW: Battle quests have been added to both campaigns in Age of Fear: The Undead King Gold. Each battle has several optional objectives (usually time-limited).
Battle Tasks
- NEW: All factions now have bases! There is the Orc Village for the Greenskins, the Demonic Portal for Chaos, the Stonehenge for Forest Folk and the Mountain Fortress for Dwarves. Faction bases follow the pattern from Age of Fear: The Undead King Gold, where upgrades unlock additional units and special buildings.
Faction Bases
- UPDATE: We have finished recording all the voices of the units and, I hope, this will improve the quality. In this patch, we have replaced the voices of the following units: Fairy, Witch and Succubus.
- UPDATE: new portraits for Ent, Corrupted Ent, Troll and Troll Thrower:
Ent
Troll
- BALANCE: Giant Scorpions are no longer capture-able - this is to fix early-game exploit whereas those unit are too powerful.
- UPDATE: Mutagen Potion will keep modifying unit’s traits (also remove existing ones).
- BUGFIX: Wild Mage trait is now only affecting spells with Failure Rate.
- BUGFIX: Time-shifted archers can attack after move.
ONGOING FEATURES:
- ONGOING: Invisibility mechanics are already coded in, but require more testing to make AI aware of this feature. Invisibility will add an element of surprise to battles and mess up your tactics! Prepare for the unexpected!
- ONGOING: More localisations are coming too! We have started with French (thanks to targus929!), but once this update is stable we will look into other languages.
- ONGOING: The Age of Fear 4 - the main story is already written and we are working on scripts and game flows. The release is planned for 2020 and we will surely push out more news before that.
PLEASE REVIEW OUR GAMES!
Thanks to everyone who supported us with constructive feedback and ideas!
Take care,
Les & AOF Team
