Title: German Patch
Post by: Freedon on February 26, 2003, 07:25:40 am
Hi!
First of all i want to say how glad I am that Activision and Taldren have realesed a patch for SFC 3, but there is only one problem.
The patch is only avaliable for the US and UK versions of the game.
I myself live in Austria and so i have the german version for which still no patch was released and in the announcements forum it was only stated that there is still work done on the german patch.
What i want to ask is if and when the beta patch for the german version will be released.
THX for your help

They found some smaller problems in the german patch that had to be fixed. The patch should come today evening ( CET ) or tomorrow...

Well after all we should be glad that taldren found some errors in this patch in fixes them now otherwise we would still be sitting here with a game that has more errors because we have installed the patch

But
Yeah! Hurry up taldren, want to play the patched game aswell as all the players from UK and US.

[satire] The German patch will be held until the U.S. garners at least 60% popular support for the upcoming war on Iraq.  Once Germany and their lapdog France comply the patch will be released. [/satire]

Now I know what the UN weapons inspectors are really searching in Irak.
LOl they are searching for the official patch which ATV has given to Saddam some time ago!

Will the german patch be out today cause yesterday it was not released.
There are many people in Germany and Austria who are enjoying this game and are waiting for the patch.
It would be great if the patch will be uploaded during this day cause i cant wait no more  
Title: Re: German Patch
Post by: Freedon on February 28, 2003, 06:55:46 am
I hope iam not going on your nerves but i think its very strange that the german patch isnt out now.
It was statet by Taldren that it should have come out yesterday evening or today but there is still no patch.
According to what ive heard the german version had problems with the installer but does fixing the installer take about 3 days?
I hope that there will be even a german patch. I would hate it if tell us that we will have to wait for the official patch.
In my opinion it is just a little bit unfair that german version takes so much extra time
Well i hope it will come out this evening!

Activision is still working on the German patch.

I will touch base with them today and try to get an update.

The German version of the patch is back in QA after some more translation fixes.

We are hoping now to see the patch by early next week.

Sorry,

Dave

hmm, well if you cant say nothing good you should say nothing at all.
well iam glad you working on it but we have waited so long for the patch and now the german version will come so late it is just so... frustrating now you cnat even play on the servers which have already updated.
Well this is the reward when you wait until the version for your country comes out and do not just get some pirate copy.
I dont want to bash Taldren or ATV, not at all but ít is not necessary to wait for so long. I dont want to sound pissed (ok iam) but there is no use in talking about it anymore. I will continue buying Taldren and ATV products but i can assure that you have and you will lose many many costumers by the things which have had happened concerning the beta patch and especially the german version. Hope you´ll have enough fans and costumers left when your next product Balck 9 comes out.

OK iam off waiting for the patch.... again

Thats veeeryy funny.    
Title: Re: German Patch
Post by: FutureTem on February 28, 2003, 04:54:07 pm
   Its NOT funny.  

I want that german patch! Or at least I wanna know the exact amount of incompetence of Activision (in other words: how long they will need to release it).
This is way unfair. We german speaking customers already had to wait 1 month longer for the SFC 3 release, and now we are excluded again with that patch. Havent those Activision guys ever heard of a "global" release? While I somehow do understand those release differences with games, I just dont get it why Activision seemingly is the only company that has such incredible delays when it comes to patches.

I paid for this just like the U.S. and U.K. customers. So I think I have the same rights. Wheres the patch?

And of course, what about the "real" patch? Any news on this one? And will we german speaking customers have to wait longer than the others on that patch too?

I dont know if anyone noticed, but Activision still owns us the real patch. But since everybody has been successfully distracted by that unsupported Beta, it seems they again can take as much time as they want.

Youricko, I understand that you like that red smiley, but if thats all you can say, then please, SHUT UP!
I'm pissed about that patch delay too, but at least some manners should remain here. And if you wanna throw insults, be sure that you target the right enemy, in this case: Activision. Hands away from Dave! He's one of the good guys.

Thx.

Post by: Freedon on March 01, 2003, 07:53:00 am
Well pherhaps you have installed a mod, or pherhaps you have changed or edit some files of your game.
It could also be that you tried to connect zo server which was not updated.
BTW Youricko i advise you to be more friendly.
It is unlikely that the ppl here and in the forum of sfc3.de will longer tolerate your impolite behavior, so pls calme down.

No no!
I mean pherhaps YOU have mods installed, but i dont know.
Just uninstall the game, than install it and patch it! Lets see if it works then!

Since several players of the german version encountered that prob, the question is: What now? Do we have to stand by and wait again? Or is there something already available to download for us?
If I get your posting right Dave, its a problem with the server kit, not with the client patch, right? Soooo, sounds like all those Build 500 servers will have to restart soon (man will they be pissed back at OSD).
 
Title: Re: German Patch
Post by: David Ferrell on March 02, 2003, 01:34:04 pm
I have asked, no begged, the server Admins
to upadate their validated client files to include the
new German scripts.  It should not require a restart
and should be relatively painless to do.

The rest is in their hands.

Thanks,

Dave
