Patch 1.15 released

[Sukramo]

The Poland Buff is reallly stupid. Personal Unions no longer break from low prestige (but it affects Liberty Desire) Lithuania has a 35% LD when Poland has 4 presitge. Basically this change means that Poland will never loose their PU unless forced in a peace deal.

Or if they ignore a pretender revolt in Lithuania, which I can absolutely assure you is a thing that happens.

Fabricate claim became very slow now, I didn't notice that change inside changes list.

That's a 1.14 thing: If you get caught, the remaining time to complete fabrication is quadrupled.

They think they have a higher chance winning vs trade ships so they are less inclined to retreat.

Heavies they know they will lose so they are retreating asap

Yes, after more testing, it's very probable explanation. But that also means AI is more cautious now. I don't remember so many naval retreats in earlier patches.
And this also means, it's ridiculous, that transport ships could so easily escape warships fire.

Does the game minimize and restart for anyone else when you click the "Back" button in the Single Player menu?

Hasn't it been like that since the last patch? It's a kind of a bandaid iirc.

My 1.14 Ironman saved games appear to be incompatible in 1.15. Steam updated the game on it owns, and I was about to accomplish an achievement :-/. Do I have to start over?

I started my ironman game (after saving the file) and everything was fine.
I suggest you to do the same: save the file, start the game, if you experience some weird stuff, rollback the game to 1.14.x version and replace the savegame with the one you saved

It's not that we use name lookup in the mechanics or anything, it's that there are various places in the code that expect/enforce no duplicate names for the sake of UI presentation.

I see. Wouldn't it technically be possible to create a custom Nation based on an existing one? Actually replacing the original nation? Maybe add more territory and/or changing national ideas. I wouldn't even mind if that required controlling all the original nation's territory and/or keep dynasty or smth. I'd love that feature personally .

Thank you for your reply.

What do you mean by "saving the file"? My games are saved as Ironman on Local (not Cloud).
And how do you rollback to 1.14?

I'm pretty sure the LD increase only happens when prestige is below 0, no?

I don't understand why horde's tribe estate still capped at 50% LA. yeah it was good enough in 1.14 because horde gives 25% LA to normal lands w/o estates influence, so 50% was justified.
but now, since the 25% LA has been changed, why horde's estate can't get 25% LA just like another nation in game?

is this another silent nerf to horde?

No more annex and change religion? I declared war on OPM Saxony over Anhalt since my vassal had a claim on it. In the peace deal I wanted to give the province to Anhalt and force convert it as well (usual practice until 1.14) - but that's no longer possible. Says "country doesn't exist after the war" and grays out the option

I guess it's WAD?

I don't know if anyone else has had this, but when the game loads, my monitor goes to its default no input screen. I can still tab the game down, and I can hear the audio. My display drivers are up to date, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I'm running Windows 10 64 bit, with a GeForce GTX 960 as my card.

Sounds like you want the EUIV Technical Support forum. You'll need to register the game on the forum to be able to access it.

Is the Random New World trade nodes bug resolved? The one where incoming trade value would just stop and not flow out of a node?

 

[Ilightmaster]

Playing since it's out.. i really like this patch !!! (AI feel smarter and estates feels more balanced)


@Devs BUT AUTO TRANSPORT DOES NOT ALWAYS WORK (small bug but still)

If it's persist i will make a bug report

Beta patches on Steam, like I presently play 13. whatever.

The "players" mapmode in MP are bugged and doesn't update correct as pick a new country. So can be difficult to spot what is already taken and what is available.

UI bug? Hovering over diplomat usually shows how far he´s gone, yet it doesn´t show all of a sudden?...

Not necessarily. The ships that would make up transport fleets would generally be lighter and quicker, which makes them more likely to escape. Trade ships (frigates), however, are much more likely to catch them as they are going to be faster ships with fire. Heavies are essentially floating fortresses, more meant to get stuck in the move particularly fast. That being said, if heavies catch the transports, there should be a considerable amount of damage
