[slaver]

. 1.17 Beta Patch 404 Notes | 8/14/2004 5:09:35 AM GMTDT

 

 

FEATURES

 

- Two new Neutral Heroes, the Firelord and the Goblin Alchemist, have been

added to the game. For further information on these exciting new Heroes

and a listing of their abilities, visit http://www.battle.net/war3 .

- A "Profile" button has been added to the Battle.net toolbar. You can now

look at your profile from the Battle.net news page without ever entering

chat.

- Replays now display their version number in the Replay selection screen.

- Designating a new clan chieftain now includes a confirmation dialogue.

- 9 maps from our Bonus Map program including (8)Funny Bunny's Egg Hunt,

(8)Shamrock Reef, (8)Dragon Falls, (8)Deadlock, (8)Gold Rush, (8)Slalom,

(6)Copper Canyon, (6)Rolling Hills, and (4)Predators.

 

FIXES

 

- Fixed an issue that could cause the Orb of Annihilation's splash damage

to ignore armor.

- Fixed a problem that could cause Metamorphosis to cancel the effects of

a Staff of Teleportation.

- Fixed Devour such that devoured units now give experience to the owner of

the Kodo Beast if it gets polymorphed/hexed and instantly digests the unit.

- Fixed rally points such that friendly units will no longer cancel rally

orders to Heroes that teleport, Blink, or Mirror Image.

- Fixed illusions so they now get correct damage, armor, life, and mana

bonuses consistent with the original units.

- Fixed an issue with morphed units that could cause them to cost food when

revived by Animated Dead if they had died in their morphed form.

- Fixed the Storm Pandaren (from the Pandaren Brewmaster's ultimate) so it

now correctly displays Wind Walk's backstab damage.

- Fixed a problem with Flame Strike that wouldn't allow Blood Mages to

become invisible after they finished channeling the spell. Prior to this

fix, the Blood Mage would become visible for as long as damage was taking

place, despite the fact that he was no longer casting the spell.

- Fixed upgrading buildings such that they now receive the correct hit point

bonus from the Masonry upgrade.

- Fixed a problem that could cause manually cast arrow abilities to

occasionally fail.

- Fixed racial shops so they no longer block line of sight.

- Fixed multiple units' casting the same spell so they now distribute the

load more efficiently.

- Fixed creeps so that missile spells no longer wake them when launched.

Instead, the creeps now wake when a spell hits.

- Fixed channeling units so they will auto-queue orders issued to the entire

selection except for Stop and Hide. Orders issued to the selected subgroup

will break channeling (so you can teleport out of the area while

channeling).

- Fixed units in the middle of a non-channeling spell such that they will now

auto-queue all orders until the spell is complete.

- Fixed Hero icons so their order is now consistent throughout the game.

- Fixed replay speeds so they can once again be changed while the replay

is paused.

 

MAPS

 

Expansion - Frozen Throne

- (4)Turtle Rock - Top right and bottom left creep camps now drop equivalent

items.

- (4)Twisted Meadows - Added some trees near the south Mercenary Camp

to prevent mercenary purchase without engaging the creeps. Also added

some trees to prevent item purchase from Goblin Merchant without

engaging creep camp.

- (6)Demon's Crossing - Removed the two Dragon Roosts and their accompanying

creep camps from both sides of the map, then altered the creep camp

guarding the remaining Dragon Roost. Rebalanced most of the creep camps to

be more player friendly.

- (6)Monsoon - Added some trees near the water line to prevent units from

moving behind them.

- (6)Typhoon - Added some trees near the expansion gold mines to prevent the

creeps from harassing players when they pass by. Added some trees to start

locations and moved bottom middle start location closer to trees to help

with initial harvesting.

- (6)Upper Kingdom - The two center creep camps that are guarding gold mines

have been pushed back from common pathing areas.

- (8)Mur'gul Oasis - Center creeps pushed further back away from common

pathing areas through the middle.

- (8)Gold Rush - Fixed missing Tavern from the bottom left corner.

 

Classic - Reign of Chaos

- (6)Dark Forest - Cleaned up some trees to provide wider areas for larger

groups to path through. The creep camp guarding the top middle expansion

gold mine no longer attacks units that path nearby.

 

BALANCE CHANGES

 

General

building in addition to the cost of the upgrade (was just the cost of the

upgrade).

units.

try to place units as close to that location as possible. If no valid

location can be found, the units will be teleported to an area around

the town hall.

NOTES: Replays are incompatible between major game revisions (1.16 replays

cannot be viewed with the 1.17 version of Warcraft III). Custom save games

will not load from version 1.16.

 

 

Особенно порадовало вот что:

1) Peasants/Peons/Ghouls with lumber can "forestwalk" to avoid being surrounded. They should only be able to avoid collisions after they've harvested and returned resources for one cycle. If they halt their harvesting cycle, they will also be unable to "forestwalk".

150) Mechanical units regen life from Unholy Aura.

23) Ensnared/webbed/entangled units are not immune to Impale (they are to Cyclone).

85) Building peasants are excluded from group selection. This was done to avoid problems where orders would be issued to a group of peasants which would cause builders to stop building unintentionally. The new functionality will be similar to units that are Channelling. They will automatically queue orders that aren't issued to them specifically (except for stop orders).

86) Divine Shield can be deactivated. The new functionality will make it a permanent buff. This was done to help avoid problems with laggy situations that could cause it to turn off accidentally.
