14 DAY TRIAL // We reported back in October that Age of Empires: Castle Siege for Windows Phone was going to receive a major update that would bring important new features and improvements.
At that time, developers revealed most of the new stuff included in patch 1.13, but they did not share any details on when exactly the update would be pushed to Age of Empires: Castle Siege players.
The good news is - and if you're a veteran of the RTS game, then you already know it - patch 1.13 has been released for several days now.
In fact, according to developers, all the changes that we mentioned in our previous article were made on the game's server on November 4.
Patch 1.13 added some issues that will be corrected with the latest update
Today, another patch has been released by developers, and it is supposed to address most of the issues in the 1.13 clients. So, if you're pissed because one or more of the bugs brought by the previous update, then you will be pleased to know the new patch should squash them all.
Here is the full list of fixes provided in this patch 1.14:
“- Fixed a bug with Edward the Black Prince freezing in the game - Fixed a bug with hero spawning and ability use. - Fixed a bug with troops freezing during battle. - Improved reconnect logic to reduce connection errors. - Fixed a bug where troops would stop moving when drawing a path towards the squad army bar used for deployment on touch screens.
