I get more and more questions about Beta 4.5, what it will contain and when it will be released... The answer is always the same: The longer we wait (work), the better it will be!
But, we've come so far that it's time to announce the details of this beta now. There might be even more things added before relese, but this is how far we've got so far...
EDIT: We have decided on a date... The magical number is:
NOVEMBER 1:st! That is the day that
The Battle for Middle Earth II - Special Extended Edition - Beta 4.5, will be available to everyone in a Public Release

ALL FACTIONS
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
- BFME1 Intro & ShellMap added, replacing the BFME2 ones. This has been done since the BFME1 intro is the movie style intro and the ShellMap is actually the SEE theme
- Barad-dûr still image (ShellMap) added for LowRes settings.
- AI Bases COMPLETELY refurbished with new MUCH bigger layout containing a lot more of the structures in the base. They still have great attention to geometry and style as well. Looking good is (almost) as important as functioning good
- Base Floors added! These give a attributemodifiers with +5% production (increased motivation of workers) and +10% armor (solid/better base floor) for standard non-combat structures on the BaseFloor.
- AI's upgrading of structures have gotten a new system added with BFME1 style, using experience (often refered to as "XP"). This XP system works along side the BFME2 system of directly buyable upgrades. This way you can choose your own strategy:
* Upgrade "automatically" from XP when enough units are recruited, or
* Upgrade faster at "higher" costs (sooner).
This also means that the AI no longer have any problems reaching level 2 and 3 for its base structures. This is a HUGE improvement in gameplay and AI functionality!
- Fortress upgrade FX (all new) added for all Good and Evil factions! (Except for the dwarves who already had them).
- AI's Fortress Expansion's pads & Range/VisionRange/ShroudRange behavior are completely refurbished, with more organized and symmetrical AI placement on the expansion pads.
- All Fortress Defenses (Magma and Oil) are now used by the AI and can be set to Autotrigger by the player (right mouse-click).
- Fortress Weapons AI fix! All fortress weapons of Mordor, Isengard and Dwarves (GorgorothSpire, OrthancLightning and IronHillCatapult) are now used by the AI on large troop contingents, and can be set to auto by the player (right mouse-click) to be used on approaching armies as well (big range). Projectile now also uses deshroud so we can see it when leaving area, and it can finally attack units at sea.
- Walls are now built by the AI, if the map allows it (is set up with walls).
- Walls, Wall Hubs and Wall Upgrades are now only attackable by siege and structural damage dealing units. This includes removal of the annoying bug that caused melee units to attack catapults on walls.
- Scenery Maps (Minas Tirith, Helm's Deep, Isengard, Rivendell...) have been given an overhaul to be playable with all SEE functions.
- Barracks level requirements overhauled. All 'barracks', siegeworks and pits now provide +33% production speed at level 2 (Total 133%) and another +50% at level 3 (Total 200%). Elite (level 2+) Unit Buildtimes adjusted accordingly.
- Evil Economy Expansion are now 33% Lumbermills and 67% standard faction type.
- Autoabilites and AI for all Units, Hordes and Heroes.
- Stance AI behaviour added for all units, complete with FX. When attacking, the AI units go to red FX and fight more agressivly.
- BrutalAI Discount adjusted. Now only 50% discount on heroes, instead of almost 90%.
- Horde movement behavior adjusted.
* When set on Aggressive Stance, hordes now swarm much farther apart when in melee combat, making the battlefield more realistically chaotic. Also less units will stand around in the back ranks doing nothing.
* Adjusted CavalryHorde turning behavior, which was akward before, unless they where turning 180°.
* WargCavalry turning fix (Horde was faster than HordeMembers).
- LargeGroupBonus for Orcs of Mordor and Moria (Goblins) added, complete with new FX. (A red pulse activates, and orcs are shouting when a mob has collected).
- Range/Melee weapon toggle is now used by AI. Ranged weapon is default, and when in close combat, the units switch to melee weapons. Hobbits, Hobbit Heroes, Haldir, Captain Jackson, Corsairs, Rohirrim... all units like them will now use melee AND range attacks by the AI.
- Additional Pikemen ThrustingAttackAnimation added for "long distance" targets/enemies. No more kicking at enemies for Uruk-, Orc- and Goblin Pikemen, except at short ranges.
- AI Horse mounting fixed for Gandalf, Eomer, Eowyn (also Disguise), Faramir, Glorfindel and Nazgûls.
- AI for Summoned Units (Hobbits, Dûnedain etc.). With no enemy around they would just stand there and do nothing. No more!
- Additional AI Spellbook Scripting for more variety of the Hard AI's purchase order (25%).
- AI now recruits Inn-units, if there are inns on the map.
- Heroes BadlyDamaged Behavior added! Now heroes register when low on health and seek out the home fortress for some quick R&R, instead of keep fighting until certain death.
- Improved and extended BurningDeath FX for troops added! Smoke drenched flames keep on burning the carcass after death.
- Attack Ranges are adjusted for all Heroes (shorter). Mounted Heroes with swords now also attack at about 2 to 4 o'clock (direction, right side) facing the enemy.
- Dropped Units do damage now! Infantry or Cavalry grabbed and dropped by Eagles or Fellbeast now have an impact FX and do some damage and knockback to units located on the landing site/ground, hehe.
- Archers for all factions, have been completely refurbished and polished to the extreme!!! Extended Range is given for archer's Bombard Attack (ballistic path). Archers now fire INDIVIDUALLY, and not syncronized like robots (that is: no longer simultaniously!). Risc of missing targets is increased, and possibility to hit others is added. And - they no longer run across the map to follow enemies that flee! In other words - archers finally act like archers...
- Arrow FX polished!
* Arrow color has been changed into realistic dark color.
* Hit dust FX is added.
- "FlyBoy" FX adjusted (Eagles & Fellbeasts). When Eagles and Fells fight eachother, we'll hear screeches and see feathers flying, while they claw eachother.
- Collateral Damage (NEUTRAL, ENEMIES, ALLIES) has been added for all weapons with an area effect. Risc of missing targets and hit someone or something else is thus added.
- Fire-AI extended to ALL attacks that can cause fires.
- Flammability of buildings overhauled.- Scorpion Creeps added.(Postponed for Beta V due to time shortage)
- Creep variety (buildvariation) added.
- AI for Dominated Creep Produced Units like Wargs, Drakes, etc, is now adjusted.
- Evacuate All, has been given to all garrisonable structures.
- Leadership attributemodifiers for heroes are adjusted and Leadership system is diversified. New FX added.
- Industry spell have increased radius from 200 to 250. Now limited to 5 minutes. (EA patch 1.05 update).
- LotR Music listing expanded.
- Banner Glow FX is moved to level 5 hordes only.
- Modified BannerUpgrade Without Banner Carrier upgrade, intitial levelling will take much longer (x10). That is because the unit's special powers (Long Shot, Charge, Black Arrows, Self-heal, Weapon Song... you name it) including the regenerative powers provided by an actual "BannerCarrier object" are now all available at level 2. In other words: BannerCarrierUpgrade now unlocks all horde specialpowers (including reinforcements).- Banner Glow FX is adjusted the same way; white subtle glow!(Postponed for Beta V due to time shortage)
>>> Credit: ROBNKARLA
- Forged Blades FX is FINALLY fixed and unified, meaning ALL FB's glow in a new glow that is WHITE and very SUBTLE!
>>> Credit: ROBNKARLA
- USP Bug (Unit Selection Problem) has been 100% fixed! No more hard to select or target units =)
>>> Credit: ROBNKARLA
- Campaign (BFME2) now running, but might still have bugs and crashes. But at least it starts up =p We will have a completely new campaign for Beta V though (hopefully)...
>>> Credit: ROBNKARLA
- "RJ Cam" added! With the new camera system developed by Robnkarla, we will have 4... that's right FOUR, camera angles in SEE =D (For this Beta we will only have it for 2-4 maps though (time consuming) )
>>> Credit: ROBNKARLA
- ALL BFME1 maps added!
>>> Credit: ROHARA
GOLLUM & The One Ring!
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
- Gollum the RingBearer & RingStealer:
* New Audio added with real Gollum voices by actor Andy Serkis!
* New Locomotor with integrated WallClimbing and all new wall climbing animations!
* Gollum the RingStealer activated!
This means:
1) All is like you know with Gollum (the RingBearer) trying to stay away with his Precious, until Gollum is killed.
2) Once that happens, Gollum the RingStealer is spawned (somewhere on the map)!
3) The RingStealer is actively hopping around, not fleeing anymore (he wants his precious, you know) but trying to avoid enemies by using his sneakiness.
4) He can now be converted to your faction's Side (Good or Evil) if you attack him and damage him just a little bit, UNLESS you are the Side that took his precious! If you manage to catch him this way, he will be a "hero" for your faction.
5) As the RingStealer, and once in sight of the Fortress holding his precious, he activates his special RingStealing mode. If he "attacks" the fortress directly while the Ring is still there (and the RingHero not yet built), the Ring is removed and back in Gollum's hands. Gollum the RingStealer is now happily dancing around and disappearing (to be respawned as the neutral RingBearer on one of the usual Gollum Spawn Points). This works, even if the RingStealer is not converted to anyone's side but attacking the fortress on his own...
CaH

Just as requested by SEE Fans & Players).

- MountainTroll and CaveTroll AI: They now pick up Orcs (and eat them) when damaged. Also they pick up a tree when in melee combat (if a tree is close).

Both are usuable with autoability as well (right-click), but only triggered by "soft targets" (not structures). The model of the skeleton head has also been changed into a human head (of a Gondor soldier). And the bug where allied evil units got scared of the Heads too, is now removed.
- Archers in Sige Tower no longer walk on the spot.
- Siege Towers no longer gets KnockBack from Balrog, Mumak or Eagles/Fells.
- Mordor BattleTower now has it's own archer crew with 5 units (since this tower can't be garrisoned).

We moved the Rhûn & Harad structures (Mûmakil Pen & Harad "Palace"/Tent) into the second Commandset of the Mordor Porter, and added a new button for EvilMen structures//side/list. In a way this became a first small step towards the 7th faction of Beta V with EvilMen as a separate faction.
