Tutorial Bugs

Post by IronFist00 »

I think this broke in a patch. It was fine in beta and in Release but since the first patch the Tutorial can go into an unwinnable condition you have to quit out of and restart.

I could be mistaken but I thought the RNG in the Tutorial was scripted or at least directed so nothing happens that could ruin the desired outcome, since that campaign is heavily scripted?

In Tutorial Mission 2 (Spearmen) it is possible the first Hellhound will attempt a Trample on the Spearmen and succeed. I've had it happen twice. If that does occur, the mission can't be completed. It isn't super common but I was surprised it could even occur. I don't remember ever seeing it prior to the patches.

In Tutorial Mission 3 (Battle Priest), the Revenant isn't supposed to move based on where the Tips have you move your forces to kill her. However she moves to the right on her last turn vacating the position she is expected to be in. The Tutorial assumes she hasn't moved and that you will attack her with the three units you just moved into position (BP and 2 Warhorses) BUT you can't. You have to use the two remaining Warhorses you did not move, to kill her. This did worked properly in beta and at Release so a patch must have broken it.

Considering a lot of new players first impressions of the game will be the Tutorial, it could be frustrating if they go off script from what the Tips assume is the situation.

John this might help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luE-eFmtgu0#t=1198. It takes you to a video of someone doing a playthrough of the Tutorial right before the Revenant's turn. You can see what I'm observing. He even comments on it.
