I've got to agree with the rest of the crowd here. It does feel a good omen that Ubi are delaying. Much rather a delayed but better patch than a rushed crappy one!

Steady work is always better than a rush job. As long as Ubi is maintaining some continual progress,

Yes, rushed. It's not Ubisoft taking away resources from the patch that is causing the delay, it's more fixes.

Ermmm, im sorry im not a modder and haven't a clue what you just said, but to me it initially sounded like UBI are doing there best to fob fans off with a load of **** and the WTF is because im so damn angry at the late announcement of the patch being pulled , not the fact they are adding things to it, although that could have come out in 1.3

Honestly, you're lucky they are even bothering to patch the game, it's not as if they are forced to do so. I can think of many games I have bought over the years, which have been abandoned by the developer shorty after release, those of Eastern Europe being some of the worst.

Better a delay, than a rushed patch, which results in the need for another patch (again rushed), resulting in (you guessed it) another patch, and so on and so forth. I do not see the need for rage, it will be released, just have patience and play something else in the meantime.

I'm totally agree with you! I prefere to wait a week or two instead of a unfinished patch BUT..... if the 1.2 patch will be incomplete....i will be very very angry!!
PS: nice your SH5 patch delayed link...............

I havent played SH5 in 2 weeks now... just cant deal with the interface and AI.

I HOPE UBI is taking thier time, and delay is due to wanting to fix this and make it right. If they release this patch and we still have friendly AI going in reverse to block my path my DVD will be collecting dust like SH4 did for a year or so...

Don't count on Ubisoft fixing the interface much or bringing back many of the features that were removed from SH3 and SH4. Probably not going to happen.

Funny thing is that I actually like the interface. Once they add the compass as far as I'm concerned it will be a vast improvement over the old SHIII interface.

Horses for courses eh?

I still find the interface horrid. WWII subs had VOICE TUBES...I shouldnt have to run down to the engine room to tell my engineer to "give her all shes got" then run to the torpedo room to be the cheerleader for my torpedo men to reload the tubes, then run back up to the conning tower to see a DD screaming at me guns ablazing....

Also (and I know they said they were fixing this) but Depth under keel, return to course, and my biggest cripe a RUDDER fix to go in whatever degree of rudder I want (Helmsman give me Port 20 deg rudder, all ahead standard). None of this 1 degree of rudder rudder rudder (another SH4 bug that didnt get fixed) or !FULL RIGHT RUDDER AT LUDICRIS SPEED AHEAD!

I H A T E the interface as it stands now...can you tell

Default Delay in Patch?

Too bad they couldn't have delayed the release of the actual game and a lot of this heartache might have been avoided!

So why don't you add some of the mods that fix virtually everything you listed?
