Next Patch

[jjarred]

Not to sound like a broken record; I was just curious when the next patch will be coming out?

Thanx for any info.

P.S. (Great Game)

Of course I am not an insider and am just guessing, but I believe that the next patch will include both some AI improvements and a few tweaks for balance. This most likely means that a fair amount of playtesting must be done before any such patch can be released.

My guess is that we are talking about a few weeks at the soonest.

You must have my office bugged. [:D]
We have some AI improvements out to test now. Several key bug fixes have been/will be made and in test this week. Several game balance tweaks are being discussed now and may be added. We are shooting for the next patch to get through test in 2-4 weeks, but things can change. We are exploring TCP/IP/LAN and hope to be able to say something more definitive about it sometime next week.

Please don't ask for a list of changes in the patch as it's too soon for that. Thanks.

It's not that I have you bugged. I am just good at reading between the lines and making a bigger picture from the little things that are said here and there in other contexts.

Both of those are tried and true methods for gathering intel. [;)]
