Ah, at least here someone is allowed to talk...the parallel German Topic has been locked due to aggravated calls for a patch.
This is real X-Tension, it seems.

So, are there a lot of requests on the German forums for the same information?

Probably the same answers there as here ..... Soon ®

Not really asking for a date as much as making sure the performance issues after loging days worth of play time are being looked into since the 1.2.1 hotfix didn't exactly fix them 100%.

Talk, just don't get aggravated. And don't discuss the actions of the moderators (even of the German forum), 'cos that's against the rules too.

Here are two things I can tell you about the patch:

It will be available...
...when it's ready, being any more specific would very likely mean the on-time vs complete and tested trade-off. There are many threads on that debate.

It will contain...
...lots of things people want, but not everything. Stating what will and will not be in the next patch creates hostages to fortune: what happens if one thing just won't work? Do you release without that or hold up everything until it's ready? Either way people will be unhappy.

Completely understand. I deal with project planning on a regular basis. Usually try to differentiate between goals and deliverables

Right now I can't even feel confident that Egosoft knows there is still a performance issue.

Thanks,

Dinac

And how do you feel when a customer tries to tell you the same thing twice through two different channels?

By all means post a [url=http://www.egosoft.com/support/faq/faq_answer_en.php?answer=610&version=8][b]DX[/b][b]D[/b]iag[/url] in your other thread, but please don't continue this here.

Actually, I get pretty annoyed.

My appologies.

Since the patch hasn't appeared in the download area, I don't believe I am supposed to say much if anything ( Due to the NDA )...but...I can say that people shouldn't be disappointed in the patch once its released proper.

Lots of fixes, a few bugs sprayed and dead, all and all...a proper patch

Cheers
