two months have passed, and we have no idea when next patch will be released

[player1]

Game was released in october, first patch was in november.

So, is there going to be next patch (soon)?

[Gramphos]

First patch was in December.

[player1]

My mistake!

(although it was an early december)

I didn't know that we have an Apolyton fortune-teller.












Joke, no offense.

I think that they won't make the next patch before the beta test group is ready and has tested it.

Strage I thought that it was for third patch.

Anyway, what they were doing for FULL TWO MONTHS.

I would be more tolerant if they were doing someting more then game polishing (like stack-movement or Hotseat&PBEM MP)

Might be, but they still need to test the patches, and can't rush them to contain more bugs then the original game. If they get it tested before the Beta team is ready they might release it, but don't count on anything.

Relax, they have had holidays. Also how long did they work with the first patch? (My guess is that they started when the game went gold)

[Venge]

It really is a no win situation for them. If they released a patch now to satisfy those of us who want it NOW, the rest would say "Those guys rushed the game now they are rushing the patches"
If they take their time and do as thorough as possible job on making the patch, those of us who want it NOW would say "Man, it is taking them forever to get out the patches, what is wrong with them guys anyway"

[Yolky]

I believe Player 1 like us would just like an offical statement about a future patch when it might be out. Even if it's 2 months away from now at least we know they are doing something.

I know I know it's been said before but at least on other game forums they keep thier customers (or fans ) in the know about what is going on. I don't see that here.

Yolky is right...

Are they still working on a patch?

They cannot discuss whether they are working on a patch. Even if they are working on one, and were able to reveal so, they would not be able to mention what is contained in said patch (assuming such a patch is being worked on, which cannot and should not be construed by any comments made thus far by anyone inside or outside of Firaxis). If a patch is being worked on (which it may or may not be), it will almost certainly make the game rise, phoenix-like, from the ashes of its' thus far mediocre beginning. How exactly this may or may not happen is also not open to public discussion.

Hope this helps.
