    A patch has already come out.

    As to when they fix the easier bugs like auto-trespassing... don't most games do a solid upgrade patch after a few weeks? Hopefully they tweak the late game maintenance system as well (although I am not sure that qualifies as a bug) but I would suspect that would be a few patches further down the road.
    What's up, hot dog?

        This patch (btw... Where is it?) doesn't seem to adress the bugs I saw over the forum...

          Ok. Make this thread a poll about the SECOND patch (and there will be one, cause the first doesn't seem to solve many of the problems related here...).
          Could some kind moderator fix the title of this thread... Or delete it?

            that wasn't a patch. that was a hotfix. based on what's being said in the support forums at 2k, a second hotfix will come out tomorrow.

            this is one of the (few) benefits of the steam distribution method: you don't even notice that you're getting an upgrade. on the flip side, in this specific case the first hotfix broke the game for a number of people. and there's no way to revert to a previous version-level.

            my guess is that we'll see two hotfixes per week until the major (mostly video-related) bugs are ironed out. two months from now we'll see the first patches, which will address game balance, new features, unit nerfs, etc.

              I'd never even heard of that word, but thanks for letting me know it's out there.

                Same difference, really. Hotfix = small patch focused on few issues and issued very fast.

                  There is no way to vote something if I think it will be released in 11-29 days. Or is banana expected to flourish in that period?

                      We had day 0 patch, then the friday patch. So the third patch should be the OP question.

                        i dont think we had a 0 day patch - they specifically said that the reviewers' version was also the gold (vanilla) version. the files that were downloaded on the first day were simply the executables in my case. those were excluded before to deter piracy.

                          Believe me, there was a day 0 patch.

                            at any rate, if you desperately want that "I beat the game at deity" achievement, make sure you do it before the first big patch. it might get slightly more difficult by then

                            or at least i do hope so!
