eta patch?

Distant Worlds is a vast, pausable real-time, 4X space strategy game which models a "living galaxy" with incredible options for replayability and customizability. Experience the full depth and detail of large turn-based strategy games, but with the simplicity and ease of real-time, and on the scale of a massively-multiplayer online game. Now greatly enhanced with the new Universe release, which includes all four previous releases as well as the new Universe expansion!

I think that it will not be before Xmas. There was many things to do and I prefer to have deeply tested working patch later than buggy quick patch sooner.

But developers can surprise us - it can be great gift. Or good gift in first week after Xmass too when many peoples have vacations.

Pretty sure Matrix staff are on vacation now so I would not expect to see a patch before the new year.

Elloit said before Xmas.
The upcoming update for ROTS increases the military ship building of AI empires, especially when at war. Wait a few days and you'll be able to try it out for yourself

Thanks

"A few days" could be different to "before Christmas".

Hang in there everyone.....we are feverishly testing the patch as I write this. There is a
high probability we may pull it off before Xmas as Elliot previously stated. He told us he
is working right up to Xmas if need be. So please cut some slack. Thanks!

That's good to hear, I think there have been many requests for more mod support as well as bug fixes since the expansion was released. So I can understand if there's a postponement. [8D]

Wish I got vacations in my line of work. I'd be playing RotS like crazy!
