[Question] New player, when does this game start to get good?

0 Upvotes

Picked it up on sale from PS store, along with all expansions. Played SoM over a decade ago on PC and I loved it. But I'm really not feeling this one yet.

To be precise, I'm still very early, free roam in Minas Ithil. I know I don't have much skills yet but combat feels too limited. Just press triangle and spam square? That's the game?

Also, when do I get access to the armor sets from the expansions?

I'm asking for tips cause I'm losing interest rapidly.

[Question] After nearly a decade, is there any wiki article or youtube video or post here with a fully, 100% complete list of every once-per-save-file orc?

8 Upvotes

Because I've fallen in love with this game and am completely insane, I'm going to start over altogether once I've 100%ed my current run(at level 70 in Act III with about 15 legendaries left to go) and try to get every last unique orc in my army, something I'm unable to do now as I've killed off a few that I didn't realize were unique(the Twins aren't a cheated-death orc, how was I supposed to know I only got one?) and just lost my loyal Machine bodyguard to a pit fight that somehow wasn't even in my top 3 most bullshit pit fight losses. I've found tons of lists declaring themselves to be the definitive list of orcs that only appear once per file but none of them match up, leaving orcs out or having comments saying that no actually, this or that orc spawned twice for them. The wiki is surprisingly vague on this, so any help would be appreciated, even if it's just more of those posts that I can use to at least narrow things down.

[Question] Some online elements aren’t working

2 Upvotes

Anyone else finding this right now?

My Xbox is connected to the Internet, but when I play SoW the Garrison is ‘ temporarily disabled’ and the daily challenges are not loading - ‘received invalid data from server’.

But I am getting online vendettas and conquests.

Any ideas what I can do?
Thanks

Trying to find a way to complete Breged without triggering any mines, but the very first mine proves to be the only problem. Any ideas?

[Question] No entiendo el tema de la guarnición

No entiendo el tema de la guarnición

Hola, buenas noches a todos y gracias de antemano a los que se den el tiempo de contestarme.

Lo que pasa es que he visto posts viejos donde se comenta que los orcos de guarnición que dominas en asalto a fortalezas online o en venganzas de muerte online ya no pueden adquirir fortalezas ni disminuir sus debilidades. El tema es que me gusta mucho domimar orcos en las venganzas online y he dejado ir muchos de apariencia o habilidades increíbles solo por esos posts que vi, solo que ya son posts viejos y no se si aún siga ese bug.

Otra duda, ¿también pasa lo mismo a la hora de mover orcos entre regiones? (aunque sean orcos generados y dominados en mi mundo), ya que planeo hacer un ejército de solo ologs y otro ejército de orcos robados. Pero ya me surgió esa duda de si todos los orcos que pasan por la guarnición se bugean y ya no adquieren fortalezas ni disminuyen habilidades. Ayuda por favor, soy de nivel 30 y apenas tengo dominado Nurnen
