HEy dudes once again i have another problem. When i try to buy the 100 best soldiers, I can't buy it. I definetly had a hundred soldiers last land and i have 2 million tribute (beat the game twice on one profile) and it only costs 250000 tribute or something close to that. Please tell me what to do or how to fix it. (same thing)
 
Don't know if it can be fixed. Saw your other thread also and it looks like they've got a few bugs. This problem i've just confirmed, it does the same for me also. But I haven't had a chance to check out your other problem with the age thing.

I haven't played for a while and am the first aztec land and came acroos this when I activated the time quest scroll.

One only thing I can suggest is to unistall and then reinstall with only the v1.1 patch. :rolleyes
Does this happen also if you start a  new game ???
 
I'm pretty sure that it definetly happened when I had 1.1 but i'll retry it tommorow. Not sure if it happens with a new game but i played it through twice in one profile. I'll ask my big brother if he ever had that problem.

Edit: Apparently some text file from the first "crawled" it's way into the second and could pop up randomly.
It could be a bug or an easter egg but my two problems are definetly bugs. I don't care if it will take longer to realease the game just please find as many bugs as you can and get rid of them Lionhead. Sheesh.
P.S. You rock Kays :yourock:
 
Well, that quest also doesn't work. That's all you get is wierd message windows. :rolleyes

Just a thought on your problem. I thought I remember seeing somewhere that you can only obtain the 100 soldiers/archers once a "game"
 
Just played my game last night and went onto the last Norse land.  Everything was fine on the previous tutorial islands, but on this land, I'm getting the following problems:

, the adivsors are all wierd too whenevr they're talking.  They go through the same motions for things like the last few tutorial scrolls on this land, but their message text seems to be jumbled up with creature messages and the popular use of the word "mumble".  When a piece of Advisor text pops up, they speak it, but irt might not have anything to do with the current scroll they should be talking about that
  • I'm getting those wierd message windows like you mentioned above.  The missions are the same, so if you know what to do, you can still complete them, but the text in the window might have nothing to do with it.  Some just say "mumble".
  • The adivsors are all wierd too whenever they're talking.  They go through the same motions for things like the last few tutorial scrolls on this land, but their message text seems to be jumbled up with creature messages and the popular use of the word "mumble".  When a piece of Advisor text pops up, they speak it, but it doesn't have anything to do with the current scroll they should be talking about.
  • In addition to hearing the Norse leaders voice, I'm aslo hearing the Japanese leader's.  And the messages are completely random.  At one point the Norse leader sounds like he's respecting my city building and about to give in and the next, he wants to tear my city to the ground.

Very.....wierd....bug.

Now I had replaced the text file with a modded version to remove the Game Paused text, so I restored the old one, but got the same problem.

Next chance I get, I'm thinking of doing a clean install, but that might not be until next week as I'm kinda busy in the mean time.  Just one question,  will my profiles be safe in the My Documents folder when I uninstall or will they be deleted?
 
Yea that might be it Kays but I think i remember getting it twice in one game. As for you Fenton, I'm pretty sure that your saves will all work like their supposed to. It seems that Lionhead didn't really put much effort into debugging the game. :yes
 
Well the fact that everybody isn't complaining about this bug tells me that it is probably hard to reproduce unless you know the exact cause , e.g. is it a specific system configuration, a an unreproducable bug is one that's hard to fix.corrupt file, or something else.  And I speak from experience when I say that an un-reproducable bug is one that'd be very hard to fix.
 
You know what it might be guys? It could be the fact that I played the game through twice on one profile and it decided " He's played the game through twice and bought his best hundred soldiers and archers. He souldn't be able to do that again." That and the fact that i think that the game got harder each time. But i didn't notice it because i have a lot of tribute and can get basically anything i want. But anyway i think it's :fixed. Thanks guys! :alc
 
Fenton - that is very weird!  :shocked I didn't noticed anything... but guess what I've found on mine. The  first time I played it. I think I was some where in the tutorial islands and loading the game was fine. The second or third time I restarted the game in the same profile (due to the tribute situation), while the island is loading I hear the evil advisor said something about splitting the villiger in half or something like that!!  :shocked :shocked :shocked I don't know what are the  two talking about, but ever since he said it... didn't hear any word from him.  :suspect

Alkatraz - Can't buy soilders?!  :shocked did you uninstal the re- installing the game? I think it will work, but that's odd.
 
Alkatraz,download the aztecs mod.Then open it,go to optional,then gamebalanceartefact.Put it into your balance,overwrite the old one and then you can buy so many soldiers you want,and they cost only 1000 tribute!

Angel,i have same problem.Always when i go to ''mighty greek capital'',evil advisor says ''oh yea,they dont expected that,splitt one villager!''its just a bug or something.

I was thinking it could be a bug.. it was very weird. lol
 
thats happened to me on several different occations its definitly a bug, one time i was modding here and there in the balance files and i started a new game and it seemed as if the scripts were corrupted, instead of hearing the regular intro i heard the japanese brother talking   ???
