Has anyone also stopped playing?

Has anyone also stoped playing the game because of all the bugs and the constant new beta patches? I want to play a game without keeping in mind this or that bug. When will the next official patch been released?

Nope, still playing. The beta patches are the right way to go. Bugs are squashed at a very high rate. The next offical patch is scheduled for 3 january if I am not mistaken. And because of the beta patches, the number of bugs in that one will be very few from the looks of it (latest G beta patch is really good).

There are a few bugs around but none of them have had any significant impact on my games.

Not stopped - just had some restart.
One of my opponents may have quit - or two, or maybe it's just holidays.
On the other hand if the 'railroading' persists the game can turn quite repetitive quickly.

Alvaro said so a few weeks ago. Don't know if the 3th is still the date he aims for, but that was the plan. But plans can change of course.

He doesn't have clean beta yet. So I think getting an official version in the next day or 2 is about a million to one.

Anyway you can put me in the stopped playing list now.
Not playing again till the next official patch. God knows when that will be.

Splendid. Will try to spot some more bugs tomorrow. Any finds can then hopefully make it in for the official patch.

Still playing best game around for this level of strategy. The newest beta is pretty much the most solid ever.
That some of you are complaining that the beta patches are fixing bugs rapidly and having multiple releases is mind boggling. But have fun as always.

LOL! the dreaded matrix "quality" control delay! Then the challenge of downloading because the in-game updater never works.
Anyway, I applaud Alvaro's open approach to bug fixing. I'm sure it will benefit his development of the Pacific version.

Alvaro is doing a great job. It's only matrix that I ridicule.

I am probably just missing the "bugs" likely because I am way too old and bored by the same old historical outcomes on the exact same times they occurred, etc. In fact, the editor gives one the power to create your own wars, and that is my focus. [:)]

I've taken a break as well, in part due to social stuff, but also because the game still has several things I'm waiting for to get corrected. I'm not interested in starting a game just to restart it in 2-3 weeks. Been there and done that. I'm still happy the game came out when it did, even if it was possibly too buggy for a release. This is the new 'norm' of how gaming software works at this level. Even big companies like Paradox use their buyers as (beta) testers.
