I'm a little confused. I bought the expansion, but 1.03 is not with it? I ask this because the version stills says 1.02 as it is loading.

Mine had a screen pop up that said something about making sure I had patch 1.03 from Alea Jacta Est loaded(which I do have). But I clicked onward and everything seemed to load fine and shows v1.03.

I got expansion too. As I remember, Beginnng of install it let's you know you are at 1.02 and asks whether to install 1.03 before expansion. Then it installs 1.03 before installing expansion. Everything working fine running 1.03.

"The free patch won't have as many fixes, features? "

AGEOD are the good guys. Their games are supported forever with full feature patches at no cost. I wouldn't worry.

What is going on? This is not turning out to be a very good advert for AGEOD. Expansion released that contains loading errors and no automatic patch for the original game. Hmmm seems to me that business considerations have resulted in a rushed release. Not good at all.

No problems here installing. When prompted it installed the new patch included with the game.

Pocus also said the patch in the addon is big, and the free one will be "slimmer". What does that mean? The free patch won't have as many fixes, features?

Relax. It means you will not have the additional scenarios. You will get the same patch as everybody else. Expansion download is big because of the additional scenarios you receive in the Bloody Roads South. "Regular" game patch will not contain those. Simple as that.

When I installed Bloody Roads South it seemed to install fine, and the scenarios are there. HOWEVER, when loading to start at the bottom right the screen still says "1.02" version.

I posted my experiences in the tech support section. I finally was able to patch to 1.03 and get my expansion installed.

Yes the patch will be available without the expansion. We are still working on integrating it in to the update system so don't worry it will come once we've completed the testing!

I kinda got that post wrong. Planed to ask Iain McNeil how long we have to wait for the patch. Is it a few days, a week, several weeks or longer. Just out of interest for one who has no interest in purchasing the expansion.
