New Patch - 320
 

I just down-loaded a new patch.

Thank you Illwinter!

Indeed, thank you! I was getting pretty excited when all the 'version 3.18', 'version 3.19' messages popped up at the dom3progress website. :)

I know thats frustrating.
But feel glad that they use beta testers to try and catch any strange problems that pop up whenever a patch is released.

Re: New Patch - 320
 

Not frustrated at all. It's just so good to read new items on the progress page. :)

Re: New Patch - 320
 

Indeed. There's some new stuff there post-3.20 already...

Early era - Sauromatia

Hydra shows only six hitpoints(!). I tested one in battle, and when those six are gone, it shows more HP. What's going on?

Re: New Patch - 320
 

It's the HP from the first head you see on the basic display. You only see more HP when all minor heads are gone.

Thanks Humakty. I haven't messed with Hydra's in years. I wonder if the mechanics have changed?

I was just checking because I have a new player in my multiplay crew and he was wondering why his huge hydra only has 6 HP.

/edit

Ah! Tested it further. These things are pretty cool now, with the graphics showing lost heads. Neat :)

I think hydras were changed in a patch some time ago, but I wonder if it was only graphical. I never use hydras, so I can't tell you for sure.

No, the change was big. They used to have only one life, but maybe 70-odd hitpoints.
