Oi how did you get EU 3 1.2 ? Is it out yet?

Anyways I wish Ubi was as loving and caring with its patching as Paradox is. They seldom leave a game to flounder like Ubi has for a bad habit. Let us hope that enough fixes are made with SHIV 1.02 so that we aren't left in the situation that was the case with SH3.

EU 3 1.2 patch isn't out yet, but we are waiting...

Damn, I have too many different games to play. And some manga to read and anime to watch... *Cries out loud* I don't have time for everything! :cry:

Well, it's out for some. ;)

Suffice it to say, I don't believe you'll have long to wait.

I for one am putting SHIV aside for now until the 1.2 patch is released.

I am NOT at all sorry I purchased and I do believe that the more annoying show stoppers will be addressed and that - in the end - this will turn into the great sim that it has the potential to be.

My game time is very limited between work and my family and I just can't afford to spend it on a product that needs so much work in its present state.

My guess is that they didn't miss it. It was right there in front of them, got reported, but the devs didn't have time to fix it. As with most releases the major bugs were probably reported by testers but never acted upon by the devs. That's the nature of software development I'm afraid.

I finally bought it. Got a fight with my girlfriend about the amount of money I was going to spend and I've won it. But when playing it I found out it was really crap. Even with the patch. So I just wait for the 1.2 patch patiencely.:yep:

Well, because when you get right down to it, pressing all the keys on the keyboard is a pretty simple and obvious test to make with any software - especially when that bug is caused by a key users are meant to press during the game.

Yes most of us won't use it probably, but it is still a surprisingly poor example of pre-release testing.... I'm sure all sorts of much cleverer things were tested and fixed along the way, but this is a really, really stupid error that (to me at least) says 'we rushed this out the door'.

If I had to guess I'd say (looking on the bright side) that the devs knew the 1.0 was a bodge, but were under pressure to deliver and so they did the dastardly deed. Knowing that the bodge would keep UBI happy right up to the first cartload of manure hitting the online forum fan the devs then worked furiously to compile 1.1, and I wouldn't be surprised to find that this was done without UBI knowing about it, in their own time. 1.1 addresses some issues, sadly it's a rush job so it introduced a few new problems, now UBI realise a patch to 1.2 (+?) will be essential to avoid a complete PR meltdown so the devs get to fix the bugs on payroll time.

Bet I'm not that far off reality. I'm an optimist - I think the devs DO want to turn a decent program out, I'm just a little worried that UBI will call a halt when the majority are satisfied, leaving some things that the purists (history buffs) will still cringe at. Luckily the modders will fix that stuff :D
