Can you guys give a bit more info now?

I loved the game when it first came out, but now it lost its appeal a bit, I explained that in another topic on the forum.

The release of the SDK didnt do much for me, so I am very very curious about what the patch is going to do and what else you have, something else big as you say.

Do you maybe already have a fix list or something? I want to go at it again (and frankly, I want to finish WL04 as well).

I can't be too specific - but I will say that we have worked on a fix for WL04. The, 'something big' was posted on matrix boards yesterday - we are launching the game on steam.

And there I was hoping it would be a map pack for one or more of the other maps of the 100 days campaign :(

Common sense tells me it would be better to fix the game in some areas first and then launch on Steam - or since the Steam launch is at Nov 19th perhaps we get the patch before that?

it would be nice to see the patch as a beta released here, as with previous releases. We can sometimes catch some stuff before it goes official.

+1 Seems eminently sensible. However, with a week to go to Steam release there is no sign of a patch. :(

(I hope to have spoken too soon.)

Sorry everyone - the post launch, quick fix, 'beta patch' was the exception rather than the rule. We have always tested our own patches and the beta was a once-off designed to fix launcher issues. It was a change of terminology rather than testing practice.

The patch exe is already with Matrix, is being prepped and will be with you ASAP :)
