Next patch (1.3)

Steeltrap · 05-03-07, 07:01 PM

Is there any indication that there is another patch in the pipeline? Just curious, as there seems to me to be quite a list of significant things still requiring fixing (radar and AI just to name two of the biggest).

Cheers

Nothing is said either way, so it is safe to assume another patch is coming

Well, ok, logical fallacy and all, but by experience the developers are mindfull of this gameseries. It is at least plausible another patch should come our way.

And I do believe the devs are quite aware of the current shortcomings. Let's just hope they get to adress as many as they can before the unimaginative beancounters get their way...

Since the radar problems and the passive AI escorts (and wierd convoy behavior) don't seem to be completely amenable to modding a new patch is definitely in order.

Im holding my breath as those issues are in the code which we arent allowed to mess with.

Pretty please ?

I assume there will be a 1.3 patch and that it will be the final patch released for SH IV.....

Let's hope it's released and that it is worthwhile~...

Is this the new wish list?

I would like:

the radar fixed when heading south.

a 2-D radar screen like SH1.

Crew members like in SH3 that I can click and point on for commands.

A 'closest ship in view' command while on the surface on the bridge.

Thanks UBI for a great game!

I would assume that there would be a 1.3 patch. Hopefully they're letting all the dust settle and waiting to see what issues are still remaining/created by the last patch. I'm happy to see that the whole situation with people screaming and demanding a patch NOW NOW NOW has kind of died down. Rushed work is usually crappy work.

I'd say the screwy convoy AI and the radar would be the two biggies on my list. But one little nagging issue bugs the hell out of me...I know its a silly little thing, but when you start a new career and the typewritten orders on the screen say "assigned to the Pearl Harbor"....arrg!

Speaking of Ubisoft releasing stuff, I remember in one of the pre-release interviews, one of the developers (Emil, I believe) mentioned the possibility of a SDK for SH3. I wonder if this is still on the table? Of course I'd like to see SH4 patched up first, but putting a SDK in the talented hands of the SH3 modders...I'd love to see what they could do!
