Any news on the 1.08 patch?

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

Sorry, it'n not a feature of 1.08, that's only because it's an AI vs AI game and AI doesn't suffere these penalties.


AH OK

I didn't know that

It is imminent, I can feel the release happening; it will be any time.. NOW....,
....NOW...nope...NOW...

Can't wait to try(learn) the new rule system that everyone is testing at the moment and is already playing and adjusting and will be until it is right for everyone and everyone agrees which is at an indefinite time.

Any time now I guess or maybe December when WITW is released.

No really I feel it will be sometime this week[8|]

Okay, so looks like I was wrong about last week.

I'm guessing there are a few H2H games that have been going on as they are testing the new beta. Hows it all coming along...or is it?

The patch is ready and it's now in the hands of 2by3 and Matrix. I just got an email from Joel, where he says they hope to launch it in the next 2 weeks. [:)]

Companies have other commitments, deadlines, marketing schedules, that kind of things. Not directly related to producing the patch :)

translation, 2x3 has WITW almost ready and when that's finished they will get around to the .08 patch when they feel like it.

Evidence in "two weeks" everything but marketing will be done on WITW then one month of hype, the proof is the use of the words marketing schedules.

maybe somebody could tell me why the same guys who sold us the wite fiasco will do any different with witw.

Ps one can play wite with necessary work arounds, i do, still not a decent product

It's not their fault that it took me so long to prepare 1.08 and that they are busy now with other things, so please don't start any flame wars now. WitE is a fine game, not "fiasco".
edit: and the words about possible causes are mine, private, not related with what 2by3 and Matrix are really doing.

I am playing WitE from release, sure its not perfect but still the best you can get on the market. Calling it "not a decent product" is not worth commenting.

Stupid or ignorant is a better word.

2by3 is a small company making huge games that require public testing, because there is simply no way a small
company can figure out all the exploits and balancing issues the likes of Bomazz, sapper, MT, myself and others have found over the last 2 yrs.

Nothing comes close to WitP or WitE nothing to-date.

Allot of exploits, bugs, coding errors ect ect from WitE have been removed from WitW. Sure there will be some issues but far less then WitE.
2by3 learns from past mistakes.

No one has whined and bitched nearly as much as I have ( not close ) about WitE and 2by3, but over and over 2by3 has
addressed balancing and other issues with up-dates and patches. Sure not as fast a whining btchs like you and I want, but it will get done when its done.

2by3 is not perfect by any means, but once they release a product they back it up with improvements unlike most gaming companys.
The product over time becomes as close to perfect as humanly possible.

Said I would shut up but calling me stupid and ignorant calls for a response.

where would wite be without Morveal, back at .11, that's where. 2x3 had "moved on" that's their own words. I don't know how witw will turn out yet, natch.

Now I will shut up if you can stop insulting me.

Well thanks for letting us know. But two weeks; just to submit a file for download! I don't see how this is necessary. "commitments, "Marketing...Yes I know all about this rigmarole, I work for a large corporation. Lots of stuff we have to do that we all know we really don't have to do.

That said at least it won't be much longer.
