Compillation of Season 5 bugs reported by several players

Hello, as part of the plan of having better communication between the community and the devs, I have gathered a list with many of the reported bugs found by several players, all these bugs were uploaded by users of Reddit and were uploaded either to the official threat or to other Reddit posts, or mentioned on Youtube.

Aussie Drongo, and Mr Merlin:
They have not been able to zoom in and zoom out when watching the replay of other players, They mentioned this problem several times throughout their videos

"Traders made from Chamber of Commerce can not be rerouted to a different market, the button to reroute (set home) traders made from this specific landmark is greyed out. "

"noticed that when in custom game lobby and you click on a player to see their win/loss history or total number for custom games, it shows up as zero. Pretty annoying when trying to balance teams for a good game. It does however still show the count and win/loss for ranked games.
Is this the same for everyone else? "

“Health smart bars not working a lot of games and also shift is trolling more than ever, at least for vills command queues.”

“Spacebar sometimes triggers the last button I pressed since this update dropped. E.g. I press on the menu, that allows you to send res to your mates, and close it. Then i do something with my units or stuff and when i press space again (my hotkey for idle vills) it opens the trade menu again. I already checked my key bindings, but there is nothing. I know this sounds weird, but I play a lot and this kinda happens regularly.”

"*Howdy,

every few matches my game crashes to desktop without any error.

The games do not show up in my match history, but they show up on aoe4world.
But there is no winner, can’t see details.
I think i do not even lose rating.
Another weird thing, the last two times it happend exactly as my castle age came through.
That did not happen in the past. Happens only in Multiplayer. No other issues, all other games are fine, PC is a beast.* "

After the update around 24 min mark the game kinda crashes. Everything just pauses. Music still paying, I can click units and they make sounds but nothing moves. I can go to menus and can click them but nothing happens. I even reinstalled the game fresh with same outcome. Anyone else experiencing this?
So far I only played against AI, not sure if it will be same against people.

"Aoe4 has been so buggy for me since the past update. Some of them :
Chinese mastery levels are named MASTERY_CHINESE_3
yellow line flashing and failed animation in the victory screen
the game becoming windowed randomly for no reason -the ongoing upgrade process icons in the left of the screen becoming 80% more transparent for no reason.
"

Thank you

Kind regards.

BTW, AOE4 gets stuck intermittently in ranked matches after the season 5 update but runs smoothly in the skirmish.

I have moved the thread to the appropriate section.

Thank you @YohGS! I’ll make sure these go to the appropriate place. A couple notes:

  • We on the team really appreciate you taking the time to collate these; we’d rather see them than not!

  • Please try to post one bug per thread if able. It helps us keep track of what has been seen/not seen. In general, any devs responding here are doing so voluntarily and typically have other things going on that will pull our attention away.

  • Any crashes should universally contact support with a warnings.log file. Sometimes a DXDiag is also helpful. Unfortunately “crashes to desktop without any error” is very unhelpful without additional context.

  • Screen caps, video, etc. are all super helpful in knowing exactly what you have seen. That said, it’s not your job to do this, so if the choice is between logging a bug without a screencap and not logging one at all…please log it without.

Again, thank you, thank you! We do appreciate anyone and everyone who goes out of their way to report bugs.

This has been happening to me too, game crashes randomly upon age up.
