Hallo zusammen,
eine News war es nicht wert, aber seit wenigen Stunden ist Patch Beta 4 live:
Quelle: Total War ROME II: Patch 4 - Total War Wiki
Wie läufts bei euch damit? Bei mir leider immer noch unverändert: Die GPU liegt in den Schlachten bei einer max. Auslastung von 70 % und somit ruckelts ab und an natürlich merklich
Die Performance der Kampagnenkarte ist in meinen Augen akzeptabel, aber immer noch kein Traum - zumindest die KI zieht langsam etwas an, die Wegfindung bspw. ist nach den ganzen Patches deutlich intelligenter, oder zumindest nicht mehr sooooo Banane^^

eine News war es nicht wert, aber seit wenigen Stunden ist Patch Beta 4 live:
Technical and Performance Issues
Further optimisation to Campaign pathfinding.
Improved the performance of selecting units.
Incremental performance improvements, reduced CPU bottleneck in a number of scenarios - further improvements pending in future patch.
Fixed crashes occurring when entering battles, declaring war, and ending turn after changing the unit size in the advanced graphics options menu in Campaign modes.
Fixed crash when placing deployables with a single click in invalid locations on the battlefield.
Fixed rare crash in battles when unit banners were moving slowly due to low frame rates.
Fixed an indefinite hang, when attacking Egyptian rebel army across the Nile in Campaign mode.
Fixed crash in the ambush controller caused by incorrectly assuming that an are in an ambush battle was being loaded, when loading into a multiplayer land battle.
Fixed crash occurs during AI turn cycle, after changing the unit size options while in Campaign mode.
Fix for major performance issue caused by reinforcing naval units in certain circumstances.
The Campaign game will no longer crash when selecting the "Province Details" panel after selecting "Raise Forces".
Fix for crash due to transport ships erroneously being able to select shot types.
Fixed Campaign lock up when a rank 2 or higher General dies, after selecting a replacement with the "Duty Calls" event, then selecting any other open event, and then attempting to open Diplomacy.
Fixed a crash when rapidly clicking the fire button on the Polybolos unit in Frist Person mode.
Fixed rare crash when selecting an active mission in the Objectives panel in Campaign modes.
Fixed a rare crashing bug in the campaign when selecting units.
Improved performance of drag-outs and holding space to show unit proxies, by no longer render ghosts for men and mounts, as they were too expensive to render. Artillery, ships and vehicles still have ghosts rendered.
Gameplay Improvements
Improved AI construction logic. It now constructs more military buildings.
Improved AI army compositions & unit quality. The AI uses better units and slightly less ranged units.
AI research is more military focused at the start of the campaign.
Slightly reduced the settlement defensive bonuses for the auto-resolver.
Increased the willingness of the AI signing trade agreements and defensive alliance.
The AI are now much more careful with constructing buildings that consume food or increase squalor. This has improved the AI's ability to fight food shortage problems.
Added more restrictions on the AI running too often making them exhausted by the time they reach their opponents.
Improvements to the AI defensive ambush behaviour.
AI now have improved ability to place its forces appropriately to deal with simultaneous front and side attacks. This involves angling and bifurcation of its *line with appropriate units to deal with the players use of flanking or harassing forces.
Fixed a bug where sometimes AI factions wouldn't generate a stance towards the player at the start of a Campaign, meaning they started the Campaign neutral to the players faction, and sometimes ask for peace immediately.
When generating armies, the AI is now more likely to choose elite units when they have the funds to do so.
Improved AI use of Pikemen in battles.
Fixing bug where the AI will not know what do if river edge hint lines are present in a map without crossing hint lines. Also improving AI use of phalanx formation in river defence.
Increased chance of AI making alliances in diplomacy.
Slightly increased the effects of diplomatic events on relations with third party factions, and the AI remembers diplomatic events for a longer period of time.
Difficulty can no longer be changed from the in-campaign game settings whist in a Campaign on Legendary difficulty.
Deployed agents on the campaign map, no longer reset back to being un-deployed when they level up.
Fix for missile troops sometimes firing in a "perfect" formation, rather than appearing natural and offset.
Diplomacy improvements - Factions attitudes towards each other are now mapped with colours on the map on the diplomacy screen. When your faction is selected, it shows other factions attitudes to you, and when other faction selected, shows their attitudes to other factions. Also, the factors tooltip now works between two non-player factions by selecting a non-player faction and moussing over another faction.
In Multiplayer battles, if the last remaining player in an alliance has a network timeout disconnection, the game will now be a draw.
Fix for units pursuing enemies when reacting to melee (not for direct orders). *Units will no longer pursue enemies when reacting to melee.
Fix for bug where units pursuing a routing unit could stop pursuing when the unit rallied even though they were still not in contact with the target.
Made individual cavalry units breaking out of combat more easily, to reduce units getting stuck in brawls.
Allied armies in siege battles now use separate default deployment lines so they don't deploy crammed into the same area.

The cap on Mounted Artillery pieces is now set at 6 per team / alliance instead of 6 per army.
When a host decides to make changes to the game setup (e.g. add new player slots) in a multiplayer lobby, these changes are now more accurately displayed to the clients in the lobby.
In Multiplayer Campaign mode, the "Show AI player moves" option is now reflected correctly for the client.
Multiplayer Ambush battles can no longer be started with 2v2 (or greater) numbers of players. This battle type is now limited to 1v1 as intended.
Whilst in a Campaign as Egypt, the "Defender of Alexandria" mission now requires the correct target to be completed.
Various fixes for men being unable to disembark from ships in battles.

Re-balancing for Transport ships.
Enemies routing now have double the morale impact.
The Form Square unit ability now gives a small increase to morale and a bracing bonus in battles.
Re-balancing for the damage rate of fire on burning buildings and gates.
The Charge timeout tolerance has been reduced so heavy units aren’t so good at chasing down skirmishers.
Further reductions to Casualty morale penalties at lower levels.

Increased effect of rear attack in melee.
Reduced melee defence stats for most units, and increased shield melee defence values to even out the differences between units.

Switching graphics quality will no longer reset changes made to the "run in window" checkbox.
Fixed issue in Multiplayer Campaign diplomacy, where both players had control over the accept/cancel buttons at same time, so they could (for example) spam the send offer button to result in multiple trade agreements with same player.
Fixed user interface exploit which allowed the players in battles in Legendary difficulty, to pause battles and still issue orders to their units.
The Maintain blockade button no longer appears on the pre-battle screen after attacking an enemy army and clicking fight battle.
In Campaign modes, if an army is embarked on a navy and in a port (e.g. by capturing a port settlement with an army/navy) it is now easier to get that army out of the water and into the garrison.
Fixed issue where if the player declared war several times successively in diplomacy in Campaign modes, some of the text on the declare war panel would go missing.

Fix for a bug that allowed the player to use the "ping" function (which draws yellow arrows on the campaign map, when the player presses the [F5] key) in *Single Player Campaign, so it now only works in Multiplayer Campaign as intended.
When there is a civil war during a Carthage campaign game, the emerging Adirim Loyalists' faction icon is now sown next to the settlement names of settlements owned by Adirim Loyalists, instead of the original Carthage faction icon.
