Patch Status

luthier · #1 10-04-2011, 03:02 PM

Hi everyone,

We’re just having the hardest time trying to push this patch out. There are technical difficulties that cause occasional crashes to desktop. We hunted down all of the issues caused by the features new in this patch, but we are still facing some old issues with the engine. They are especially apparent on DirectX 9 and Windows XP.

We’re actually going to release another beta version of the same patch tomorrow and see how it’s testing the rest of the week. We’d like to make sure we don’t make the game any less stable with the new patch than it was with the old, or make it run any slower.

Sorry about the wait. We really want to push out the patch and continue improving the game but it’s just never as easy as you hope.

I think a lot of us thought another beta patch was maybe best anyway, with all the intended changes in sounds and lighting etc, so I for one am happy with a second beta, thanks for informing us of the problems, most of us here want to help make COD better.

Just dump support for XP and dx9

Its obsolete as far as MS are concerned and hardware has far exceeded the limitations of XP32bit

Surerly it's obsolete for future CoD expansions?

Sadly there are many gamers that still run XP, as it works for their use. No idea why, though. Dumping support for it would be a bad move.

Glad to hear about the update, though! Looking forward to tomorrow
