I'm still waiting for 1.3. Not real interested in playing SHIV till I get it. If they just fix the stop watch, I think I'd be happy, but I don't even know if they are going to do that!

There really is no point in asking as no one is going to commit to a date. Dan and his team have a lot to do, and will hopefully take all the time they need to get it done right.
Let them have the time they need. It will be worth the wait.

From business point of view (and looking back when sh3 last patch was released ) I believe Devs team has about 1-1.5 month to make the patch 1.3
That means that we have check point is 4th of July.
But it just a thought, I have no intelligence info about the release. MI6 is silent, Jeams Bond is on vacation.
We all want it , but sooner doesnt mean better in this case

There really is no point in asking as no one is going to commit to a date.Not looking for a date at all just want ONE darn thing fixed - FIX the RADAR! That ONE fix would make me VERY happy person.
When it's done, it'll be released, and not a moment sooner.

Lol I left for quite some time. Was happy to hear about patch 1.3 then left for some more time. I come back thinking maybe it will be done by now but eh. I am just going to uninstall the game until it's out. I stopped playing months ago but kept expecting a patch every week. I kinda need the hd space right now so, off it goes.

Couldn't agree more with the pantience sentiments being expressed here: The devs where forced to release early due to external pressure and look at the mess that was made, i am quie happy to wait for as long as it takes, safe and reassured in the knowledge that A PROPER job is being done. I HOPE THE DEVS KNOW THEY HAVE THE SUPPORT FROM THE COMMUNITY TO TAKE AS LONG AS THEY NEED TO GIVE US THE GAME WE WANT :up:

SHIV is moved from my HD because at current state it not convinced me much as other actual games do. With this patch the people at Ubisoft (so called devs, managers etc.) become the last chance from me to show me that they can develop games like other studios which also convince me then.
But due to the behavior of Ubisoft in the last years, I do not expect to much of this patch. Actually it really does not interest me when or whether it will ever appear.:hmm:

It doesn't matter to me when they release it. Tomorrow, next week, next year, it just doesn't matter because I'm too busy PLAYING the game instead of b**ching about it. The radar works great, just d/l the mod. The A/I is suspect but manageable. I've yet to have any real problems with CTDs and with all the mods out for it, you can have everything from Quake in the Pacific to a realistic simulation of what these guys went through.

Please show a little more respect when posting here. Phrases like "so called devs" do nothing but inflame the debate and are totally unnecessary. If you want to vent or rant there are other websites where this behaviour is tolerated.

From Navarre"people at Ubisoft (so called devs, managers etc.) "
I was angry on the contidion SH4 was released. And Ubi got a lot of criticism from me.
But Devs team are very dedicated group and people who actually made good job with sh3 and tried to do everything that possible with sh4. Companies often rush games to be released in incomplete stage. But that a company policy not devs.
(censored***) Navarre, give us the breake, mon cher! Show some respect to working class people like devs.
lets guys wait till july Its approx. 2 weeks as was said above.

Sir, I think I have to give some light to my frase you made a quote so kindly.
The qoute above is about me too. Now I m an American and proud of That. And I proud to be born in Europe and (to be called european) have 28 years life experience in Europe. And I proudly dont have american attitude and european snobism toward different cultures( am. attitude and euro - snobism killed each other:-)). And Most of americans do not have so called "american" attidude and most europeans do not have so called european snobism. But anyway both things are existed and I state my frase again because it shows my opinion.
Best regards!
PS To anyone who feels to be abused by my frase i am trained pistol shooter(especially in duel pistols - its real fun) and very good in fencing. Old fashion way ? Duel? ;-)

It never ceases to amaze me. We start with a post that poses a question that not even the Devs know a precise answer to at this point, and we degenerate into ranting and personal attacks.
Q: When will patch 1.3 be released?
A: When it's ready.

I want to believe in the mythical 1.3 patch, but I tend to be a pessimist by nature.
I hope you guys are right. I expect you are, and there will be a patch. I just worry.

Ubisoft have officially confirmed patch 1.3. It will, in all probability, be the last patch for SH4. It will fix critical issues remaining in the game. It will not fix the frequently seen wish lists posted here and elsewhere.

Okay, now when we get a patch, what happens then? What's in the works by the mods?:ping:
Also, let's not forget that 1.3 is pretty surely the last patch (given how unlikely it seemed that we would even get it in the first place), and that much of the original dev team has already gone on to other projects. I definitely hope that they take all the time they need, otherwise any leftover bugs in the code will remain there for good.

I'm not going to be banking on 1.4 so the devs have my blessing to take the time they need to get it right. The thing that really worries me is the fact the 1.3 number one goal is to fix critical issues and nothing more, and how the community is going to react when it's released. Over on the Ubi forums the day after 1.3 was announced the question was already being asked when it was going to be ready (no joke) and if things like more compartments were going to be added. :roll:
People's expectations are so high that 1.3 is going to do everything on everybody’s wish list. This is going to lead to nothing but disappointment. I predict we'll get no less than 10 threads on the first day of the patch being released asking/demanding to know why something wasn't added.

Not to be cute or anything but people in hell demand ice water. :lol:
But in all seriousness I hope they are able to nail down and fix the critical game features. Which if they had been given a little more time we probably would have never seen.
You know those silly little gameplay 'features'.
Just little niggling little things :hmm: like ... well the radar, and the chronometer, the TDC errors, etc.
I dont really care about extra compartments (although it woulda been nice). Just give me the promised features and necessary tools that work correctly.
I hope the devs FIX everything in the MODS I CAN'T DL!

Question:
From a business perspective why would UBI commit more resources to fix a game they have already sold?
What's in it for them?
If I was their finance manager I would be screaming at them to drop it already.
As if when a new supersim comes out people are not gonna buy it cause once upon a time UBI released a game with bugs and not enough patches.
Microsoft has been releasing crappy products for ages and still have 95% of the market.
From that point of view I'm happy with the two patches already out. The game is a huge success as it is and I respect them for doing this much out of respect for their costumers.

Their reputation.
Personally, I think its out of control how poor the quality of most games off the shelves are... I mean, some things that are noticable right away seem to make it through "testing" or "Quality Control"... its just not good, and the customer is not protected.. it should fall under a lemon law.

If Ubisoft had invested in a realistic production schedule for Silent Hunter 4 and then had a few cosmetic issues outstanding after release then I'd agree with you. But when they assign a Dev team for about 12 months to build a game that they know requires 18 months to build correctly, then they have to be prepared to release critical patches for the game.

What I'm trying to say is that the way things are at the mo with so many crappy products out and no respect from the developers UBI is actually not that bad. At least they're listening and they're making an effort. Don't make me bring up my favourite example again...

I bought SH4 right away...saw that it was needing more work...and waited for the patches. I installed patch 1.2 and took another peek (kind of like checking the oven to see if dinner is ready). Still not quite ready yet.
Am I hungry? Yes. But I don't like getting an upset stomach and really enjoy a meal that's cooked "just right." So I've had SH4 since the end of March and have not really played it at all...just toyed with the tutorials.
I think SH4 will be the last time a Pacific theater sub simulation will be developed for the PC for a VERY long time. Therefore, I will patiently wait and at present, I'm content with the knowledge that they are going to do a patch to address the issues.

They have to take their time fixing as many bugs as they can. If it's not fixed adequately Ubi's reputation is on the line.... not that they have a good one anymore. SH4 not fixed the way it should be will kill sales in the future. I won't buy another Ubi game no matter what it is, and I imagine there are many out there that feel the same way. Hopefully they'll get it right in 1.3 to save face and keep customers.
And when will 1.3 be out? You can bet it won't be 2 weeks or even 6 weeks this time around. ;)

Good things come to those who wait, methinks. Anyone out there familiar with Star Trek: Legacy? Quite possibly the most rushed, un-beta'ed, unfinished major-title game ever. If it takes until mid-July to fix all or at least 95% of the major issues raised, I'll take it. There are so few quality PC titles out there anymore, and even fewer quality publishers/programmers. I really hope Ubi goes the hard route and toughs this out to get it right and be one of the good guys. I would hate to see Ubi just give up and go the way of EA and others.

And HEY!, GWX 1.04 is due out any day/week now...or? ;)
