No problem with v1.0 and v1.09 versions!

Why is this patch not available as a manual download? It's not on Firaxis, Apolyton, Fanatics web sites, etc. It's not rocket science! (And please don't tell me to use the Auto Update function - I don't auto update anything).

i should have put bold in the first post of this thread

Or at great big animated arrow that says "PATCH HERE!"

Hm, it still hasn't fixed my problem with the game freezing my computer solid... If I can't play medium details on 1024x768 on 6600GT without the game crashing, there's something terribly wrong.

I take CtD as an improvement any date

I just did half a game just to try out the new patch. This is the first time EVER that I have been able to play a standard size map! But the problems I have had from the start with the game when I use 32 bits colours, is still not solved. I forgot to reset the colours to 16 bit, and got a total system crash as usual... But that's somewhat minor, as I just can use 16 bits colours as mentioned.

Why would I use direct link if I don't want option to resume? I would use autopatcher instead.

I am sure if the game can run under Linux it won't be doing this.

[Zoid]

I play the game just fine with my 6600 with 3.0 Ghz P4 and 1 Gb of RAM. Are you lacking in that department maybe?

[Urban Ranger]

I've got Athlon 64 3200+ with 1GB RAM.

[Zoid]

Ok, then it should work. But I don´t have to tell you that I suppose...

[Diadem]

Wow! This patch is really impressive! I see why they named it 1.52 instead of just 1.1

I spot some almost hidden but pretty big changes to gameplay

- Firepower in combat now based on max strength

That's a major change to combat. It completely changes the rules.

[Urban Ranger]

Is firepower something only gunpowder units have?

If so, that makes them far stronger.

[player1]

Thanks Mark for new link.
It starts well.

[Sauron07]

I was just going to ask what people thought about the firepower change when Diadem posted. If I read it correctly this will make injured units much more powerful, especially versus weaker units and is a major change. This should make the Tank v Archer situation less likely but will make defending with older units more difficult as well.
