Quote: ...Have you patched the game to 1.1 (the so called "day one patch")?...
Everyone who has a proper game would have to have 1.1 or later because first startup required to be online & the patching gets done & then to be registered/licenced? [bloody "ninja-patched" alright]
Man, isn't this thread is a bit late, I found out about those haven bugs on 2nd day of playin'
@Zenofex, going by dates of readmes on my comp, I think H5 first released May 2006, H5HoF Nov 2006, H5TotE first released Oct 2007 & H5TotE 3.1 patch released June 2008.
imo, it's even longer than you said
My contribution to this thread:
Based on previous knowledge, the most annoying is that there was a very good chance of first release being like this & still nothing learnt from the past [bad AI, heaps of previous features missing, stupid offline mode has no hero choices & no main-hand weapons]
I know most things will get fixed eventually but...
sadly, the AI will never be improved enough to come close to H5.5.
[why bother with VIP fans if developer can't understand - oh, ok, just use them for the positive publicity]

If you don't ever play H6 on other computers, change the uPlay settings - disable cloud save.

Not really, starting it through the launcher does not necessarily patch the game itself - this has been reported quite a few times. You need to launch the "gu" (Game Update?) thing to patch manually. Same story as during the beta. This is how I patched my copy by the way, didn't work automatically.

It will probably be fixed in the first expansion. My guess is they're delaying it because they want you to buy it. I'll be happy when proven wrong.
Zenofex:
Broken features do sell games. No one goes "Whoa, this ability is bugged ! And that is not fixed since beta ! I'm not buying it.". They go "This ability looks cool ! Nice animation ! That was a cool spell effect, I want more explosions ! Take my money !".
Game purchase decisions are usually based on first impression, and trailers. Rarely on anything resembling an analysis. They simply get away with that, and if you get burned, there will be more players when they grow up in a few years. And if you complain about not getting the preorder bonus, you'll be called a whiner. Because, you know, criticism is wrong and unamerican.

NOW I get it! You need to level up your dynasty to get the abilities working! At level 100 the game is probably completely bug-free. Finally, I begin to understand the logic behind the unlockable content.

My dynasty is also level 40, and yesterday evening I checked it again (happened during a quick trial game, but hey, opportunity arose and so I checked ). The Imperial Griffin dive attack didn't do any damage, even though all three enemy stacks should have been hit. The Imperial Griffin appeared on the left side of the map, then blinked to the right side, without visually trekking from left to right, before returning to its starting position again. No damage was applied to the enemies.

It looks like you don't have the latest patch installed, Wizy. Your version number was 1.0.xxx.
I'm not going to tell you to update your game to make the griffins stop working properly , but that could be the reason why your griffins work and everyone else's don't.

Odd, I just checked there and saw my game version was 1.1.31785. So I ran the "gu.exe" in the Heroes folder, as suggested elsewhere and now it has been patched up to version 1.1.1. Silly how they used the buildnumber in the version number before.
Anyway, can't find a patch notes anywhere, kinda annoying as I can't see what they changed now. Anyone know of any?

Strange, my version is also 1.1.31785.....is this not the latest patch as chronologically it's later than 1.1.1?

No, you have the unpatched version. The first correction of 1.1.1 was to correct the version number.

I get it now, the main thing was to correct version number, the cursor & computer crash problems secondary I wonder if I should try unpatched game on different computer & see if sun riders & luck work

Sun Riders didn't work in the beta so I doubt they were working in the unpatched release version
