	To Firaxis: OK, we have 1.16f, now when will be next patch? Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Will it be in this year, on in beggining of next year?

	Got spare money?

What are plans for next patch.

Mosty likely unit balance (look stratgey tread from Jeff)
Some bugs solved.

Is editor upgade in plan for NEXT patch (or it will be some time later)?

Is Hotseat & PBEM in plan for ANY patch (or it will be when MP Civ3 gets out)?

You've got to be kidding. It took begging on hands and knees to get one Firaxis employee to admit that group movement would be a good thing. If you get answers to your questions, I'll kiss your foot.

They must give us this info anyway.

It's better then mailing to ask the civ team!

I`d love to see a patch this weekend, kind of an early Xmas present for all us "true" gamers.......but somehow I think not.

What would you prefer? a smallish patch released this week or a larger patch mid January?

Ho ho ho

weekly patches to update things as we go, instead of waiting a month or two per patch is annoying.


But thats just me

Daaaaammmmmnnn, and I missed it? What thread was that in?

As for the patch ...

[firaxis mode]
We cannot comment on the patch, the availability of said patch, contents of patch, release date, if there is a patch, if there isn't a patch, if it's being worked on, discussed or even thought about.

I think that small weekly patches would be much better, at least then all of us would feel like something was actually being done. Even if not that much changed, at least each week maybe one or two things that annoyed us would get changed.

Wow, I;ve never seen a thread filled with more wishful thinking. I bet we don't see another until at least Jan 20-Feb 1 .

Was anyone able get a Firaxian to admit that bringing back the s for sleep/sentry command would be a good thing too?

This was a general comment made by Soren (I believe) shortly after the game came out. Before all the whining people started *****ing because Firaxis didn't send all their programmers out to update people on the status of the patches instead of making the darn things.

I gess we should have the programmers here telling us what will be coming instead of making it happen.

I would say that weekly patches are completely out of the question. Running through a test cycle probably takes at least a week by itself!

Unless, of course, people would like patches with absolutely no testing whatsoever...

That would be more like PUBLIC BETA TESTING.

I have an idea.
Why don't we ask Firaxis about some type PUBLIC BETA PATCH TESTING for free?
