Happy Friday, everyone! To help you through the weekend, our own, BBQTurkman, has an exclusive look at the upcoming September Update and the changes on the way to Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition:
Here are the major highlights:
Unlock new profile icons, mods, and an exclusive cheat code during the Teutons Event!
Hold out against waves of enemies in the Barbarossa Brawl challenge scenario!
Implemented several pathfinding improvements for Villagers.
Gates will no longer permanently lock in the “open” position.
Adjustments to the Arabia, Bog Islands, Fortress, Megarandom, Scandinavia, and Socotra maps.
they said last patch that they would be doing a small update this time around, in prep for a big patch in october
i highly doubt Indians get BE/EBE without some significant nerf to offset it.
I’d like to know about some major updates coming. Those events are nice, but not really that exciting to be honest compared to the major content updates we got in the past.
I just hope those new anti-cheat mechanisms do not break the possibility to run the game in SteamLinux/Proton (like it happened with a recent update to a game called Fall Guys).
Great news! Can’t wait for improved villager pathing.
The map changes seem to address the common complaint that Arabia is too easy to wall.
Special events are always nice, but I’m still hoping for some important bug fixes, like the disconnect issues in team games. Maybe that’s too much to ask, we’ll see.
