(UPDATED 12:08 PM 11/11/09)Runic Patch 1.12 - Vendor updates

[Cabal]

No definite ETA on the build from Perfect World.

I want to say today *crosses fingers*, but we are still working with Runic on things, and running things through our QA teams.

QA can take some time, if the whole has to be checked out.
I know for myself how important QA is. I tested a game as an external QA.

And if it's not tomorrow, then it's tomorrow.
Better be safe than sorrow.

im starting to wish that I had bought the game from Runic Games instead of Perfect World now. I hate waiting but I have waited for longer than this for other games in the past (for example: Trickster Online).

Runic has to work with each distributor/publisher to prep the build to each company's needs, and the DRM that is used.

There are some other hoops that the game has to jump through before going live.

I am hoping it will be soon (as in this afternoon), so I can get it too for my personal use!

I ended up buying the game again through Runic. It is worth the 20 bucks. I am like you and I hate waiting. And who knows how many other times we will have to wait for a patch/redistribution. I am hoping not that much but at least now I won't have to wait.

Youhou thanx a lot for that

Thanks Perfect World !

I was beginning to regret buying from Perfect World, with Runic purchasers being able to enjoy the patch a few days before us and getting their 10 activations back... Well, I'm glad you reset our activations too ! Actually, when I bought the game, I thought there were only two distributors : Steam and the developpers. So I chose to purchase directly from the developpers to increase their profit (and because I am just allergic to Steam). Well, I guess I should have searched a bit more before chosing Perfect World, I might have discovered that Runic was selling their game directly. Nevermind.

Any informations about upcoming patches ? Will we have to wait again ? or is this just because this patch is a bit special (basically, a whole new game package). I really wish the upcoming patches could apply to all distributors, if that's technically possible of course.

And many thanks to Runic for this great game !

Can I request that the music be separated from the original PAK.ZIP, contained in a separate ZIP, as that is nearly 50% of the file download.

Also, remove the manual, if you are going to have a separate manual.

The Music-Pak can be a complete separate download, as is the manual... Since there is little that would change with the file, if anything. (A simple Zip-Update that replaces files or adds files, would suffice for the update. Why have it be locked into the large file, and included as part of the DRM and updates? Remove the static data from the game-data that we would expect to have constant adjustments.)

Just a thought...

Also... when updates go live, can you publish the actual version for each of the latest updates? (I see one is 1.2, and assume the rest are all 1.12?)

How do you reset the demo time limit?

Here's my situation.

I got the game for a Christmas present via Steam. Cool, but now I'm not allowed to play it until Christmas -- wife's rules! I can PM support here for proof that I do indeed own the game via Steam. Or if somehow you can see my Steam profile it's "escapedturkey"; it should show that I own retail version, just not installed.

The Steam demo didn't have a time limit, it only had a limit where if you finish one of the first missions it stops and you can start over. However, it turned the game into a real version (which is fine) after I got my gift.

I read about the new patch being a demo, so I am allowed to check it out (wife's permission). However, there is a time-limit and the game expired. I tried removing registry entries, reinstalling, etc. and it still says my trial has expired. Yeesh!

Now I can't even play the game nor demo until Christmas.

Buying her flowers should unlock the full-retail version...

That's some good ol' fashioned crazy right there.
