The Valiant, the medieval RTS game released a few weeks ago, received a crucial update today. Patch 1.07 doesn’t bring any new content; instead, it delivers balancing changes to the first three missions of the game.
The first two missions can now be completed quickly but some segments will be more difficult, as the developer aims to increase the excitement. More units will be available in the second mission so players can get accustomed to complexity a little faster. The third mission received a ton of balancing changes, like an adjustment to enemy make-up so that mission is more challenging.
The developer also revealed that checkpoint saves for the first three missions won't work anymore. Players have to replay their respective segments, but no overall progress is affected.
The patch also fixed bugs related to gameplay, missions, multiplayer, audio, UI, and more. Some of these can be read below.
- Fixed an issue where watchtowers being destroyed while in the progress of being upgraded have their model and progress UI stuck.
- Fixed a case where archers engaging an enemy unit would block the attack path of melee units behind.
- Fixed a case where archers garrisoned in watchtowers would not shoot.
