Whats going to happen when the patch...

SteamWake · 04-10-10, 02:28 PM

What will happen to folks with heavly modded installations and a patch is pushed?

Nisgeis · 04-10-10, 02:34 PM

Hopefully they will remember to remove their mods, before they click 'Yes' when asked if they want to install the patch. If they don't... spooky things will occur.

Westbroek · 04-10-10, 02:38 PM

What exactly will happen? I have no intention of finding out, but I am curious...would it just break the installation?

John Channing · 04-10-10, 02:40 PM

Probably not. It's just that a lot of things will either not work or be really screwy (if that's not getting too technical).

JC, just the right amount of technicality in that explanation. Well played.

mcarlsonus · 04-10-10, 02:46 PM

systematic error with a domino effect. Just one patch incompatible with non-stock mod code can cause failure en masse. One key piece is deactivated, the whole shootin' match collapses.

One will know this has occurred when the destroyers find you and the merchant marine forgets what a gun is for...

Probably something like this:

(oh GREAT! I'm quoting MYSELF!)

Example: Look at McHub532's experience with mod conflict in thread Recon at Trondhein Naval Base

Westbroek · 04-10-10, 03:28 PM

McHub's having more problems than anyone I've ever heard of. That poor guy. We should all pitch in a few cents and buy him half a bottle of beer, in the Das Boot spirit.

But when the DEE DEE DEE's do?
I'm sure we can help you.

What will happen is the devs will accidentally break some stuff and issue an emergency patch LOL . Noobs will just download the patch without uninstalling mods and continue on there patrol and then PM modders with abuse about how there mods stuffed up the latest patch or the patch doesnt work or SH5 suxors and the devs suxors LOL .

You done yet? Your posts are so repetitive I could write them for you.

Whats different from any other SH game? Patch comes out, people go crazy with crashes, mod issues, this is nothing new, so whats the point of this thread but to continue belly aching about un-controllable things?
