Why is the patch taking so long?

I think its to ensure the quality. Imagine the frustrations if the patch caused new issues...

If it fixed more than it broke.. it would still be better than nothing.

I happen to know the truth, before I did, I thought the same as you.

The truth - I.E. why (based on your inside information) the patch is taking so long?

I'm sorry but I'm not at liberty to discuss that. Lemme just say that if you don't know how to Mod I recommend you learn, or make good friends with those who can, dark times are ahead.

Not trying to make a personal knock against you or anything but it always pisses me off to see or hear someone so they have "inside" information on something but once they are asked to elaborate, which you know would happen once you spoke up, you say that your not at liberty to say.

It would be logical to assume then if you are not at liberty to say as far as elaborating then you are not at liberty to say that you even have knowledge one way or the other.

To me it is incredibly frustrating to see it done and have over time come to see it as nothing more than a false call of "authority" very much like how a Conspiracy Theorist's mind works. They have an inferiority complex so they compensate by raising themselves to a new level saying false things but claiming truth to sit themselves upon a highchair. After all in their mind they are the only ones who know the truth, the only ones with the answers.

End Rant. Again nothing personal but nobody enjoys being teased especially when your baited to.

That'll be less than one percent of the people who purchased the game then. Ubisoft's whole disastrous approach to this game was based on pleasing the casual gamer, not appealing to the tiny percentage of their end users who understand modding.

Just because either Dan, Mihai, or both are feeding you scraps of information, don't post here as if you have any knowledge of how this game will develop.

Ubisoft corporate makes that decision, not the Devs.

I believe that the Devs would have chosen to do a lot of things differently regarding this game, (I have that on very, very, very good authority

) but they are not funding it, the Publisher is.

How many patches are offered will to some degree depend on how sales are going. A small patch team costs money, and if your game is not selling, patching it some more is not going to sell it more.

Time will tell with this game. Let's see where we are at the end of the year.

they r finishing up the 20% of the game that they haven't gotten the time to ship on launch date.

gutted · 04-29-10, 05:12 PM

The problem with this delayed patch is that I.. and probably many others have completely lost interest in the game.

I've moved on to other things, and probably wont be back playing this again for quite some time.

1000% agree , I am getting annoyed and bored waiting.
