As per yesterdays forum post, we have decided to make a beta version of the 8.01 patch available for people to try.
For those who don't know what a "beta" is, it's a test version that we would normally use internally to test the fixes that have been made.
We have decided to release this to you due to people having issues with the workaround for the closing down bug, and a couple of other long term issues that people have discovered, as well as a few compatibility issues that a few users have experienced on their machines and the Securom copy protection that is being used on the game.
We will be releasing a final version of the patch in a couple of weeks, once we're happy with it and have gone through a full test cycle internally. The final version will also include data changes.
There will be many different versions of the "beta" patch available for the different variations of the game. As these become available, the game name will be in bold lettering.
We haven't finished testing it yet, so use it at your own risk, but we expect it to be ok. Whilst we believe we've fixed the issues, We'd like to hear, of course, if you encounter further problems, so we can try and rectify them.
So, umm, working on it, couple of weeks, Beta out for feedback, seems like they are being pretty damn communicative to me.
