If I'm reading this right, they've not even starting working on an XBOX360 patch yet, so god knows how long it will take, if the PS3 patch is anything to go by this game will be a mere foot note in history by the time it gets here!

It was appeared suddenly even for publisher.
We never recieved 'approved' status - it was just appeared on PSN.
So it was completely unexpected. We'll try to work out X360 update asap.

Anton already said the actual patching data is done, all that needs to be done is getting the publisher to submit a 360 version to MS for certification. The reason he was surprised was that usually a developer gets a "certified" notification from Sony or MS. In this case it was probably a mix up in comunication and the publisher got the notification instead imo.

Yep, here is his response to me in the "title update not out yet" thread.

I really hope this is just lost in translation, but does this mean the 360 version of the patch hasn't even been worked on yet?

It is basically the same as PS3 update, so it is ready. By "development" I meant mostly cycle of publisher's QA. Changed it to "production".

I think it will be more like 1 or 2 weeks. Think about it that is about how long PS3 owners had to wait after the DLC was released on the 360.

These two cases don't really relate to eachother. It all depends whether the patch will go through MS smoothly, and how long that'll take. Out of the devs and publishers hands.

So what issues and faults does the patch actually fix??

The simultaneous spawn crash is a major pain in large multiplayer games and I doubt if anyone here hasn't experienced this when playing online.

So have all or some of the performnace and handling misrepresenations been fixed??

Will there be more DLC for the game??

We had a fair few large games yesterday, some up to 12 players, various modes (all except dogfight) and there was no instance of exploding on respawn. Although I wouldn't call it an exhaustive test, it looks promising.

The P51 certainly handles very well - I took one into a sim CTA game, and any shortcomings were my fault, not the plane's. Although it's armament seems weak (4 MGs is it?). But it does fly very nicely now. I haven't tried the FW yet, but will get on to that tonight probably.

Blackouts and redout are now very keen to occur, which is kind of annoying in my Spitfire. I think I'll need to find a new favourite plane now. But it does definitely change the nature of the dogfighting for the better I guess.

The not being awarded kills for downing a plane issue is kind of better but no way completely fixed. Although if I had some debug output about how much damage I was doing I could probably comment further - it may be that my perception of damge output is just off.

And the unlock thresholds have certainly been reduced - you will no doubt get a load of unlocks depending what you fly in what mode.

All in all, worth waiting for, if for no other reason that it's brought a lot of pilots out of the woodwork :)

I'll have some of that action if I see you around. Be nice to check if the FW is more than just the bomber killer it used to be...
