Even the forum speaks volumes,it's all becoming like 'Tombstone City',it's soooo bloody quiet on here now,I have seen so many friends leave this sim in recent weeks it's untrue.

No,the only thing that you'll see tomorrow is more tumbleweed rolling through here,lol,as it's becoming increasingly clear we've been abandoned.

There has to be a patch tomorrow! Even if it's just to fix the Grass/Trees/Clouds..I mean, we were told this would tack nine days and it's been about 4 weeks already.

I've been following the updates closely and cannot recall a promise to deliver the patch "in nine days". Please post a link.

I'm really tired...

This company don't have my respect until this game is fixed.

All fanboys can talk a lot of nonsense now, i don't care. 1C and/or MG are redoing all graphics engine, it's clear.

They sold us a really bugged sim based in a really bugged engine. We all know that.

With time all this mess will be solved, but the respect, sorry... will take MUCH more time to be earned again...

It's a shame...

Where in my post did I say they were delivering a patch in nine days time? Please post the link? I said B6 said it would take 3 days each to fix the Grass/Trees/Clouds and I stick by that because he did say this. Unfortunately this was about 4 weeks ago now and unless you took a vacation you would have seen it for yourself if you follow things so closely.

The alpha, beta patch was released 5th May, almost 8 weeks ago.

Thankyou for clarrifying your statement PotNoodles, your original statement gave me the impression that you had read a post that contained a release date. Obviously this is not the case.

Cheers!

Wishful thinking, supposition, use of 'logic' or reading between the lines does not make a release date. Please post a link if one has been posted.

Cheers!

To be fair, we have to take some kind of meaning from B6's words, even though the company is non-committal to an exact date. So, what have we got?

From June 22:
This week we have completed all the planned work on the patch and are planning to start its assembly and testing in the coming days. Therefore, we do find it difficult to give an exact release date.

So, Friday last week ALL PLANNED work was complete. And there were testing in the COMING DAYS. Now, granted we need to allow for some language translation, but from the above one should reasonably be able to assume that a patch would be a matter of days away, rather than weeks. So, anything from, say 5 to 15 days? (june 27th through until about July 6th). I think that if the patch is delayed beyond that point, it's arguable that B6's report was misleading.

From June 15th
A very short update today. We’re continuing to work on the patch. It’s largely done but DX9 stability remains an issue so we’ve had a quick discussion a few minutes ago and decided to let it simmer a bit longer.
We did make some progress this week......We’re hoping that we’ll have a playable stable version of the patch ready very soon.

This was the week prior. Patch by that stage was "largely done" which is consistent with the update a week later, when it was COMPLETE. The decision to delay was based on a "quick discussion" only a few minutes before the update - which conveys the strong suggestion that the decision was unscheduled. Couple this with B6s statement that the patch would be ready "very soon" one cannot be blamed for thinking that this was a matter of days, and not weeks or months.

There is a consistent pattern here of using terms and references that indicate short time spans of days, maybe weeks, rather than months. For those that have assumed, based on this evidence that the patch should be out in June or July 2012 then I think their assumptions are well justified.

So in short there was not a release date mentioned, nor a specific number of days until a release. Just as I thought.

Thankyou for your research into the matter, it should stop some droll and repetitive arguments.
