    Will the patch tweak rules, or only the editor ? Did Firaxis release a changes.txt already ?

        jdd :
        Are you sure everybody here uses the US version of the game ?
        The patch will be released much later for other versions (Japanese 1.21f was released 3 days ago), so it can be bad for some people. This thread is useful

              Will the savegame be compatible between 1.21 and the future patch?

                It should be, unless it was modded (other than terrain) and I don't recall it being modded otherwise.

                  This save file will be compatible with the next patch that comes out. However, if I use that file on my updated game, then anyone who has anything below that will not be able to open up the game again until they upgrade also (which may not be possible for non-NA people).

                    I say stay with 1.21 unless the next patch is editor only. I use the us version, but many people do not and we shouldn't hurt them.

                    unfortunately, trip may have to have two versions on his computer.... Ouch.....

                    Perhaps a poll, non official, jsut to see who uses what?

                      GodKing: even if it is editor only, the saves may not be compatible (though the system for PtW might maybe hopefully be introduced in the patch)

                        Actually, I think I have 3 already right now, but I can't figure out how to get them off! They were corruped or something, so there's no uninstall option, and they're not in add/remove either. Phooey.

                          We all agreed to play by certain rules so we shouldn't change them midstream.

                          If you don't feel the slightist bit joyful seeing the Iraqis dancing in the street, then you are lost to the radical left. If you don't feel the slightest bit bad that we had to use force to do this, then you are lost to the radical right.

                            The rules shouldn't change, unless Firaxis unleashes some interesting changes on us. I say patch - how many different versions are there? The Asia-Pacific version (me) seems to take the same patch as the Nth Amer version.

                              I know there are at least the German, French, and Japanese patches, who are released much later than the regular patch. I don't know if there's a Spanish or a specific UK localization.
