The beta patches are a rewrite of the graphics engine. It looks similar because the textures etc are the same.

Maybe I've been out the loop a little , but I think these beta patches are just fixes for CLOD, the sequel will have the same graphics engine as CLOD if I understand correctly. If this is the new graphics engine then that will mean that the sequel will also suffer from building pop up, flickering tree shadows, no AA, particle / smoke slow downs etc etc etc, see bug list. So releasing a sequel based on the graphic engine we are currently using would be sheer madness so I dont think what you are saying is correct, I think the new graphics engine will be a fairly large patch that will be released via steam.
