when is the first real patch due

[Fidel]

um, i checked past releases, and the first real patch usually got one month after the release. that means that we are about to receive one this week? i mean, 3.03 is not really a patch, innit?

[Sarxis]

No clue. I just got 3.03 yesterday and I have no idea what it did.

There is no "Due Date" on the first "real" patch.
Fortunately, there are no game-breakers for me, especially with Solver's post-release contributions. I mean, before-Solver corporations COULD have been a bit expensive.

i know there is no 'due date', but IIRC it has always been some friday 'round a month after the release....

Solver said a few days ago he expected it would be in about 3 weeks.

when is the first real patch due

When it's ready.

There's no such thing as a timeline for patches, they're released when the majority of bugs have been fixed. The Warlords patch took alot longer than a month, so you can't judge by previous releases. And BtS is much bigger than Warlords with more things that need fixing/balancing.
