so I’ve been sat here for 2 whole hours grinding XP for the first challenge to unlock Mexico, and i have nearly 100,000 XP and am still level 4, when i need to get to level 5 to beat the challenge. Does anybody have any idea whats going on?
UPDATE : just reached 100,000 XP, still level 4
there are no challenges to unlock the faction.
did you ever solve this? thanks
Hey!
Have you tried re-launching the game and trying again?
The first challenge should allow you to “check” the level of your Home City - if not, then you will be able to play match by selecting “begin” and in that case, the challenge should unlock by completing the match (you can just resign in a skirmish).
If that still is not working, you can try gaining a level in a Skirmish. Using the cheat “Nova & Orion” will grant some XP, as well as building most military or having best economy.
My next suggestion would be to enable Cloud Saving, make a copy of you Aztec Home City .xml file from
C:\Users<user>\Games\Age of Empires 3 DE<0000000000>\Savegame
then delete the original and launch the game again to generate a new file. If this does not work, then you can replace the “new” .xml with the copy from earlier.
Hope this helps!
I had no problem for this challenge
I also didn’t had any issue with it, but i had the levels from before
I’ll give it a go thanks.
i’ve tried playing direct from the challenge and in a standard skirmish game, aztec home city stays on level 1 and won’t go above 4 during the game, pretty frustrating.
i’ve won multiple ones
