Total War: WARHAMMER III News

[p][/p][p][/p][p]Hey there folks,[/p][p]Next Tuesday, September 23rd, we’ll publish Hotfix 6.3.1, our final planned game update prior to the release of Total War: WARHAMMER III: Tides of Torment and the release of Game Update 7.0.[/p][p]We’ve focused this Hotfix on bringing further improvements to many of the changes brought with Patch 6.3 and offering some refined balance changes for both Lizardmen and Tomb Kings. This Hotfix also helps to address an unintended AI behavior that was causing AI controlled factions to poorly budget their resource, and result in instances of low stack armies on your campaign maps.[/p][p]There’s a host of additional changes, fixes and improvements detailed below, but if you’d like to check out the changes for yourself, players on Steam can switch their client to the Beta branch and play these changes right now. You can find instructions on how to do this at the bottom of this post.[/p][p]Here's some highlights from today's release:[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Highlights[/h2]

• [p]Two new frontend toggles for Unusual Locations as well as balance changes and bug fixes[/p]
• [p]Lizardmen factions that have mechanics to spawn in Blessed units now gain double the Spawning Sequence from performing actions compared to the 6.3 release.[/p]
• [p]All Lizardmen factions have a method of increasing the capacity of Blessed Spawning units.[/p]
• [p]Tomb King factions can now begin researching technologies from Turn 1, even on Legendary difficulty.[/p]
• [p]Vampiric Corruption values from technologies have been reduced with additional effects added.[/p]
• [p]Improved some AI calculations on recruitment, though there is more to come in the future to fully resolve this.[/p]

[p]Hey Folks,

We’re pleased to say that Patch 6.3 is now releasing in full following our initial beta release over this past weekend. The instability issues that were present on AMD Hardware has now been resolved, and our teams are confident that we’ve seen the last of those issues with this release.

Thanks to everyone who checked out our Beta over the weekend and provided us with plenty of new feedback on the Patch itself. We’ve been able to incorporate a handful of those changes in time for this release (detailed separately within the full patch notes), and our teams are continuing to evaluate all of the feedback from hungry Lizardmen and Tomb Kings players who went hands on with the changes this weekend.

We’re expecting to publish Hotfix 6.3.1 in the coming weeks that will look to address some of that feedback alongside a handful of additional minor issues, with an eye to bring some refinement to the general balance of our Tomb King and Lizardmen changes in updates further down the road. Please keep that feedback coming, we deeply appreciate it!

Patch 6.3 brings a host of updates and improvements to the Tomb Kings and Lizardmen, and updates from our audio teams that adds Warriors of Chaos music from the first Total War: WARHAMMER, alongside expanded VO for Wulfrik, and entirely new VO for Throgg in Norsca. With Bretonnia we’ve also added brand new VO for Alberic de Bordeleaux, alongside a new VO variant added for Bretonnian Lords.

Want more? Here’s just some of our favorite changes and fixes added in this patch:[/p]

• [p]20 new Unusual locations[/p]
• [p]220+ Trait rebalances[/p]
• [p]Greenskin Skill Updates[/p]
• [p]Camera Blood Splatter[/p]
• [p]Bugfixes across the board[/p]
