Don't use beta, wait official patch. It's all that I can say.

Hey B6, here's a couple of questions for you. How many more beta patches do you think there will be before the final retail patch? Also, will the retail patch be the last patch for CloD? because at this pace it seems as if BoM will be finished by the time the retail patch is done.

P.S What happened to the special announcement of BoM that was supposed to be in June?

Nobody know it now. It depends on programmers.

We are waiting announcement of sequel as you. IT depends on the leadership of 1C.

I'm more viewing this one as a sort of interim/loyalty patch. After last week's "done when its done" Friday update debacle, it's intended as a bone for the masses to chew on while the real one is still in the works. I wouldn't expect that one for a good long while yet.

Ok, so Maddox Games are ready to announce the sequel and some information about it but 1c has not decided when to do it? am I right? Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer our questions.

Yes, you are right.

"A bone for the masses" is rough and wrong expression.
I finished communication in this thread.

I think you misunderstood me, I'm very happy to beta test and report bugs.
But others seem to read updates and expect everything will be fixed at once ("magic patch") ...so when the beta doesn't do what they dreamed about they get rather annoyed.

Keep on chipping away at CLOD for as long as 1C gives you time, it's all you can do.

I'm with Ze-Jamz on this one...

Yes beta implies that it is not a finished product. Yes many get their knickers in a twist over patch release dates & content.

But the bottom line is in over 12 months very little has been achieved to improve the many bugs & associated issues. Yes the game has been made better for some in regards of fps, personally not an issue for me, but the many many bugs just keep building.

It was certainly implied that we were waiting for a patch that would fix many things and would not be released until it was ready... this has not happened. Clearly there is one man and his dog working on CloD.

The worst thing is the developers have stopped communicating in any meaningful way with this community. Blacksix seems to have his hands tied of knows nothing....no disrespect to BS, what we need is communication from a developer who knows what is going on.

Exactally!

Hence the name BETA!

What is so hard about this?

As in if you don't want to be part of the solution than wait for the final release!
