So you think the patch is actually all complete and just sitting on a devs hard drive while they sit and make excuses to delay the release of a finished patch? they say they have fixed alot of things because 'we' the community 'demanded' weekly updates.

Have you even read the update? Here:

"This week we have completed all the planned work on the patch"

Sitting right there on their hard drives. But releasing another beta patch for public testing is no go, because you know.. have to "assemble" it first, which will take a couple of months.

"This week we have completed all the planned work on the patch"...but not completed the internal testing.

Well, if you agree with that, quite a patience you have ... they finished the planned work (6 months) but they need assemble and then do the internal test? (when in the last update they said that they are almost ready to release the patch, but in an afternoon reunion decided to postpone a little bit)... then they do not finished the work, because the work includes the internal testing to see if all goes right.

They have already released one alpha/beta patch that they worked a long time on, why would they walk away now? People need to put things in perspective, it's not like they are keeping oxygen from us.

Name something in that alpha patch that they "worked a long time on" that made you say "Ah! Excellent! They are on the right track!"

I honestly did not see one thing that was better in the alpha, and I even saw many things that were worse!

Improved speed and less CTD for me, they completely rewrote the engine which is no small task. Yes features were missing but they should be added back with this patch.

This 'fanboy' label is getting boring and is pure childishness, what possible sense could it make for a sofware company to just sit there doing 'nothing', what we are being told sounds plausible, I see no reason why a developer who is suffering badly from a bad release shouldnt be being very carefull over the release of the major fix, if they crumble to the pressure of 'whingeing' they might push it out prematurely again and it's back to square 1 and probably game over and everyone can clear out their desks, their children can starve but none of you would care because you had to spend £50 which most of us could piss on a wall in 1 night.
