I guess since there is no official response that there is no word on the next patch. Need to wait for buying this game, seems like way too many problems yet. Maybe another 5 or 6 patches they will have a playable game.

It's playable now, and you may have a long wait for another 5 or 6 patches.

Exuse, maybe playable not right word? I read about problems with large air combat, naval bombardment, land units disappear, land units do not move properly, auto convoy not working, supply system very basic . When these problems or errors be fixed? And is there any offical notification or do they not tell?

None taken. [:D] can understand the frustration of waiting. We are still working/testing for annoying bugs like disapearing LCU's of which one scenario has been nailed and a save created for MikeW to examine.

We are moving forward....slowly, but surely. Keep the faith.

Have you fixed the problem that makes Japanese MSWs with delivery in Tokyo show up in the allied ship arrival screen? 1.77 on CHS 1.03. I have save games if needed.

So, if one is waiting to start a new game, should we wait until 1.7 comes out or start with 1.6 and upgrade?

If you believed every negative post you read on this forum, it may seem that WitP is unplayable. Believe me, and many others who play it, it isn't. [;)]

I bought it the day it was released and have played it ever since. I currently have 6 PBEMs going. It was playable with version 1.0, and improving even now.

IIRC, It is to do with the respawining of MSW.
They overflow into the Allied portion of the database because there is a spare slot there.

Remember some discussion in Editor forum about this during CHS setup stage.

I am wondering if the 1.8 patch is in process or are there still some problems with the 1.795beta patch? I am interested in starting my first PBEM games( 1 as Japan and 1 as Allies ) but I was waiting for the next patch.

The 1.795 patch has disappearing leaders. I also read that it allows Chinese units to get Chinese replacements even if China is completely conquered by Japan.

v1.795 beta has some problems. When Mike has some time, we'll need to release another public beta with those fixed before we can feel comfortable with the final release.

Any thaughts on that? I don't want to missout on a serious feature in a long-term game beacuse I couldn't wait for 2 weeks...If it's just bug fixes - full speed ahead!
