Patch on monday?
I saw in the sticky that you are applying a hotfix for CD issues on monday. Can we expect anything else by that time or just the CD fix?

We are actually trying to incorporate the scheduled patch which addresses all the reported bugs and issues together with the hotfix to resolve the disc detection issues. No promises, though, as everything has to undergo thorough testing before release.

I hope the patch or hotfix or anything is coming soon Smile

Timo,are you saying that the hot fix for the No CD error may be delayed beyond Monday in order for them to incorperate other bug fixes?

If this is the case then it is absolutely unacceptable to me and I believe to many others here in North America.

If the patch gets delayed, will you guys still please release the hotfix individually?

We are definitely looking to have a solution for the disc detection problem ready by monday, regardless of the bugfix patch being ready or not.

RE: Patch on monday?
As promised, I returned my bad copy and exchanged it for another one. It too had the, "Original Disk Not Found" error. I don't think it is a "small number" of disks with the error, but all of them. I think we should all go and and return the game and hope that the company gets a financial hit for releasing such a buggy and unplayable game. You would think there would be a testing process or something to see if it worked before shipping it out.

I find it comical that Timo says, "No promises, though, as everything has to undergo thorough testing before release." It looks like the patch is going to get the testing that the game did not. What a joke.

Even more comical is that in your rage you completely missed his second post above you.

So, are we to find the patch on the website, or is it being emailed out? Excuse me for being thick-headed, but I'm not sure where to find it...

Yes, its already late in the PM there...so yah..

perhaps the Monday promise (for the disc detection - not the bug patch) applies to NA time?

Thats what I thought...........So now I am REALLY having doubts about getting the hotfix for the No CD fiasco today since it's already noon time here in the Eastern US. Their work day is probably allready over...Still No Fix
