They're releasing a beta graphics patch to isolate graphics issues from everything else. I would expect a full patch soon afterwards, as they have been working on other issues at the same time that they have been working on graphics. That seems like it would be pretty obvious.

Thats what we hope is going to happen....

BETA graphics patch then maybe full retail with other fixes 2 weeks later.

but as we are saying its not clear what is going to happen and when.

2 weeks is probably the best case. His prediction of 3-6 months is nothing but trolling/

He seems to know. That's why I'm asking where he saw the timeline posted.

are you a game developer?

I am, and I am working in game development industry back from 2002 as lead game-designer and senior producer. that's 10 years of experience by now.

"overhauling" a "graphic engine" like this practically must be read as re-writing the core part of the game (which is also consistent with the 6-12 months long timeline of this "overhauling") . after that you have to integrate all the other subsystems, and that can not be done in two weeks, or a month. unless you're doing both (core and other subsystems in the same branch) at the same time, case in which you can not release a beta only for the core part of the code..

maybe you can't read between the lines, but I can.

are you willing to bet with me that a full patch won't come earlier than 3 months at least from now on?

Are you on this dev team? If not, you know as much about the timeline as the rest of us. NOTHING.
