File list for 1.3

Jace11 · 07-10-07, 03:39 AM

Can someone work out a list of the files that are new in 1.3...

Not all of them, just those that have been changed or added since 1.2...

This will help modders and maybe I will get round to releasing my supermod...

I would wait for the official patch before doing anything. Rumor has it that the official patch will be a little bigger than the beta patch and with a few more fixes. But like I said,that's just a rumor from a German site.

(I suspect that a beta tester is going to get reamed by violating the NDA by putting that beta patch out).

You got that right. Much more importantly, the ability of the Devs to have patches Beta tested in the real world has now been compromised. It will now be almost impossible to allow selected members here and at other respected forums to Beta test Ubisoft patches and games. So, while everyone jumps for joy at downloading a patch that is weeks old and out of date, the bigger picture is very worrying.

You mean UBI might have to start beta testing their games themselves?!!!

Heaven Forbid!!!!

I think Ubisoft's problem is production schedule duration. If you don't allow sufficient time for a game to be developed then your Beta tests are of little value. Such was the case with SH4. if this game had been given the additional 3 or 4 months of development that it needed, then it would have been released in the state that patch 1.3 will now put it.

Testing with your own controlled conditions is valuable. Testing in the real world is more valuable. TDK is simply pointing out the fact that this will be more difficult for Ubi in the future. That, of course, does not pan out well for the player, nor for the desire of further completed games out of the box.

@TDK and Takida

Your points are both valid and well versed. But if UBI insists on releasing a game before its completed then what value is beta testing to the player, in house or public ?

The player still ends up with a duff game regardless.
