Icing V till 1.2

commandosolo2009 · 05-08-10, 03:21 PM

My fellow kaleuns,

I announce that I'm icing V till 1.2 patch is out. countdown is 3 days..

*fingers crossed* I hope it boosts up the game.. I read about the news an hour ago thanks to skip Kylania. We owe him a big thank you for the joy to the eye..

I suggest you all do the same.. I also think that my ONLINE saves are kaboom bye bye after the patch.. It's common right?? So long as they fix up this tube, I am willing to ice the fish and Kurt has my orders to freeze the eel batteries (yes August 1941 T3 batteries) till further notice..

''All stop, give me some dive on those planes, new depth 50 meters, notify soundman to report to his quarters immediately, lets move it people..''
Join me and leave your signature and comments.

See you after 1.2 Gents..

Aww, I just mirrored the post from the official forums. You should thank the Ubisoft UK Forum Manager, ms-kleaneasy, for actually getting us the information GKane (the "Community Developer" for SH5) has consistently failed to get us.

No sense not playing till Tuesday though, there's lots of great things still happening with Silent Hunter 5 including v2.20 of DarkWraith's UI coming up, a pretty new campaign editor from SubV, new update to JSGME recently and reaper7's new high res UI having just come out!

Rise of flight is stealing my time (curse you new Dogfight mode!) but ill be back splitting my time after the patch

I'll cross my fingers right with ya Solo, and well actually I haven't touched SH5 for a couple weeks as I've been busy with other hobbies such my R/C flying. A shame to waste good weather stayin inside ya know?

Im as always quite hopeful and optimistic.

my copy is tabled for the time being. (if not permanently)

I have not played SH5 for 2 weeks. I am waiting to see what effect the Patch has on the game be fore reinstalling any Mods. I have deactivated all mods and deleted all saved games in preparation. However, I don't think the Devs have worked on Patch 1.2 in a long time, I think its release has been held up for 'legal reasons'. I do not expect huge improvements from Patch 1.2. I expect that a good Mod like The Dark Wraith's U.I. Mod is a bigger improvement to the game than this Patch. I don't think there will be another Patch after 1.2.

SH Ubisoft devs have never failed to release an officially announced patch that I know of.

I might be wrong, but I think he meant another patch after this one.

13owman · 05-09-10, 03:31 PM

I haven't played for a month or so but I really don't expect it to be here in 3 days or fix even 50% of the problems but I will try it when it do get here whenever that is.

The patch was originally announced in late March as an April 12th release. That day came and we were told it'll be "about a week more". April 19th and 20th came and still they didn't release it. A few days later we were told again, "maybe another week". April 26th we were told "mid-May". May 5th we were told May 11th.

An entire month after it was first supposed to be released and every ETA along the way was missed. How is that not failing to release an officially announced patch?

Who was the official that announced it?

JCC

It matters little at this point, when the patch is released.
I don't think the reported list is in any way complete.
If We don't get a way to import new Units?
Flush this down the drain.
So I hold hope for new unit imports.
Regardless?
I've went directly to Granny sources and asked some questions.

Original patch announcement post from March 30th *

by GKane, Ubisoft's failed "Community Developer" for Silent Hunter 5. From his "welcome post" on August 21, 2009:

Quote:

Hello everybody and welcome to the Silent Hunter 5 forums!

I am GKane, the Community Developer for Silent Hunter 5, and I will be one of the links you guys will have with the people developing the game. I am sure that with the recent announcement we have made, you guys must have a lot questions.

He posted pretty regularly until the game came out, at which point he disappeared. He posted the day one patch notes, the linked patch note above, edited it to say it would be late and pimped one of stabiz' videos. That's it. He's never said anything else about Silent Hunter since release, hasn't tweeted nor updated their forums or Facebook page. I'm assuming he was fired.

* - that post was edited by GKane on April 12th to say the patch would take another week (the yellow Update edit at the end there). It was than edited on the 21st to reflect it's current title with no ETA and finally closed on May 6th when the latest patch thread was opened by the forum manager, not GKane.
