Well Just to be on the safe side reinstalled patch 1 then patch 2 then rebooted.... but still CTD just after the initial load screens so the game is unplayable
Wow, I wasn't expecting that.
I bought on Steam and it's always running in the background and updates automatically my games (nice feature!). So it was a great surprise when I started to play today and almost at the end of the battle I notice that little hourglass at the top of the screen. I said:" Hey! that wasn't there!"
Thanks for the patch. I will do a lot more battles now!
Hopefully you'll get the trade as a fleet thing instead of individual ships and you'll implement warehouse auto-trade too. After that, the game will be awesome.
Hi Tomar,
a similar issue has been fixed before by changing the Windows Data Execution Prevention settings. See the Troubleshooting Sticky in Tech Support for instructions.
There's a problem sometimes when you end battle at x4 speed. Something doesn't "click" and you are left in the battle without interface and can only leave via escape -> quit to main menu.

That's exactly the problem I was mentioning in another thread the other day. Somebody suggested it was my hardware problem. The thing is... I am running Empire Total War (higher graphics quality than in EITC) on the same machine at maximum graphics at 6x speed and it never freezes.
East India Trading company was not freezing before the 4x speed was introduced (and, I think, it's not freezing on 1x speed even now). So, there must be something going on with the speed-up. It's not stable.
A button to end the battle at any point after the whole enemy fleet starts fleeing would be useful too. That would avoid the need to wait out the final stage of the battle at 4x speed.
It's not freezing for me. Interface disappears and game is laggy but it goes on. I can press Escape and from there go to Main Menu or even Load pre-battle Autosave. So it's no big deal for me, one lost battle from hundreds I fight per campaign is nothing. Also, I can avoid the bug by never finishing a battle on 4x.
I still sail with 1-3 knot, what's changed? also, it's pretty disappointing that gaining exp via trading is still the same. I had to make my trade fleets to attack some of weak priates or other country fleets just to get them to level 3 at least. >.>
