Patch Update from Chris

This is what he said on the boards today:

We are up to patch 1.25. It's been in testing for several days now. Each new patch requires this amount of time to test, since we need to play through the single-player campaign and play many, many multiplayer games under different testing conditions.

Singleplayer seems very good. There are no known issues that would stop us from releasing this patch.

There are three known issues remaining with multiplayer. Two are related to the new respawning feature (getting stuck and a possible crash in TB mode) and one is a massive frame rate reduction if a player quits in the middle of a battle.

We have a couple people out sick today that would be responsible for making the decision to release the patch or continue to work on it. We're talking to them and hope to make a decision as soon as possible.

Note that it is one patch, and the singleplayer fixes cannot be released without releasing the multiplayer fixes (and those three known problems).

It's an all or nothing deal.

We would, of course, release another patch that would update multiplayer (and singleplayer again), if we decide to release this patch.

E-mail is flying furiously around, as we type.

pax,
-Chris
