Question US/EU patch, translation errors, 1C Store pricing

Hello guys,

I have three questions before I venture out to buy the game (digitally, as there is no Collector's Edition for European customers). Those of you who already own the game can probably answer the first two without too much difficulty.

1) US/EU patch
The russian version is currently at 1.64 if I'm not mistaken. What about the US/EU game? Is that v1.00 at the moment or has it been already patched to v1.64 prior to the release?

2) translation errors
I found these in the European demo. Not that I speak Russian but some things I read in the tooltips weren't just right. For example, the Dragonfly's (or Serpent Fly? Can't remember the name, sorry) skill, Weaken(?) had a tooltip belonging to a different skill. Also, two of the first skills the Magi (I mean the hero) were able to learn had the same tooltip but the effects were not the same. And so on.
Have these been corrected since the demo?

3 1C Store pricing
Just want to know whether I should buy the game from Atari's US Store or wait for 1C to include this game in their list of purchasable digital downloads. Do we get an EU price (~30 pounds as it is at GamersGate) or one closer to the US (~20 pounds at Atari US Store).

Thank you for your time!

1. The game is patched to 1.64

2. There are minor translation issues but nothing really important (IMO)

3. I recommend Gamersgate. They charge $40 US. People have been having problems with their serial numbers from the Atari download, and you might be waiting months for 1C to get their act together. So go with Gamersgate if you can afford it.

Hope that helped.

I don't have info about pricing at 1C buy & download section yet. Right now I'll recommend GemersGate, espessialy if you live in Europe.

I appreciate all the answers, guys! Nice to know that the game comes pre-patched. As for the translation, I suppose someone will take the time to correct the major ones (either in a patch or mod).
Okay, I'll take a look at GamersGate's webshop although I don't like the idea of paying 50% more for the same files. Reliability has its own price I guess

I only took a quick look at the files, but it seems you'd simply have to reorder the skill names or modify a couple of string mappings to fix things. Pretty easily done.
