Thanks for the accura-sizing* report, twifsie. However, you have to agree it's still a major f@#k-up on the devs' part and their associates. They should have tested it, even though it meant delaying the release date another week or two. And now we've a crapload of innocent customers around the world scrounging the Internet for possible fixes to this thing, many of them unfamiliar with how it works and running the risk of screwing things up even more. *Sorry, this isn't in reference to that car model. My brain was on edge and couldn't find the exact word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twifkak Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Err, I need to learn to write. I can't speak for all problems -- only for the one that tycho55 addresses. The chapter 5 freeze, he claims, is a problem that people using the crack would find. You don't use a crack unless you're running a pirated version of a software**. i.e. these are not innocent customers -- they're neither innocent, nor customers. Now, there are tons of other problems, it seems, and wrt those, I agree. Especially considering how long they've been waiting just to find publishers, I don't understand why they wouldn't have the manpower available to patch. **Again, some patches do neat things like allow you to play the game off the HD and whatnot, but the people who are doing that are going to be computer savvy enough to not be the target of your whine.

Homoludens Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 I wasn't whining, dear. I was being the responsible, wise customer who refuses to just feed money to them then cup my hands under their butt waiting for the product to come out. The very least they could have done is officially announce the problem and that they are working hard on a patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
