Hello VSTEP!

When will be the Patch released, which fixes the problems of the 1.3 Version???

I feel very disapointed....

[Mad_Fred]

Soon!    (though I'm not VSTEP, I thought I'd reply to you anyway)

Why do you feel dissapointed?  The game is getting better with each update and bugs are a fact of life anyway..
When major changes occur, some small issues arise due to it, which cannot just be fixed right away untill the bigger things have been completely done.

There was no date set for any patch, so how can you be dissapointed about it not being here allready?
It will be released when it's done, that's about as much as can be said.

You can't expect every single thing being taken care of right away. It takes time and effort, but all the issues that have come up in the past are known and are being looked into.

With limited time and resources, the developers have to set priorities...
Which problems did you have in mind btw?

And, why do you double post... Bottman also told you about what's what! 

Regards,
Fred

I feel disappointed, cause the "New Horizonts" update to buy, fix the problems...so the free update for the MAIN problems must be finished???

[Mad_Fred]

Just be a little more patient..

The Addon isn't even fully released yet in Europe..  only in Germany.
And do you know for a fact that all the issues you are talking about are fixed in New Horizons?
Cause I don't know which particular problems you mean..

It will be here when it's here.

My main problem is the following:

I can´t play some of the standart missions, because I can´t release the lines of the non player ships!

So the game is fifthy percent not working in my case.

[Mad_Fred]

That error will be fixed soon. 

All you have to have is a bit more patience.. but anyway, it's only 2 or 3 mission that have moored non-player vessels, as far as I know, so it's hardly 50% 

Unless you only do 5 or 6 missions in total and don't play the rest.. 

This is not a bug btw.. this was a change in the game. But it was thought over some more and was decided to be changed back.

You also have to understand, that missions are seperate from main game features and in some cases are not even made by VSTEP themselves. So the mission creator has a responsibility of fixing them aswell.

But the missions like "bunker towage" and "assisting the fast craft" that had the unmooring issue, will soon be playable again, as far as I know.

This is probably a stupid question but is 'New Horizon' also a v1.4 patch? Or are they separate thing?

New Horizon is coming out this Friday (28/3) and I want to buy it  but I need to check in case I have to install v1.4 patch first. (if 'New Horizon' and v1.4 patch are separate things)

Thanks

New Horizons is v1.4, but not as in patch v1.4

NH just turns SS into V1.4, so there is not going to be a patch V1.4 AFAIK... if there would be a standalone patch lateron, that would probably be V1.5, I guess, as that would be logical.

Just what I suspect. There seems to be a lot of cunfusion these days.

If I may add to the confusion, Fred:
Unless there is a change to the download release that I don’t know about,
New Horizons will update 1.0 to 1.4

Thanks, it does make a bit sense to me, at least I now know New Horizon will update my copt of SS2008 to v1.4.....fingers crossed it will fix some big problems I'm having with v1.3.

Kev,
There are no more V1.3 problems, they have all been updated to 1.4.
