Unreal II Patch & Demo News [Feb 13, 2003, 10:01 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A post to the Infogrames Forums
by Legend's Glen Dahlgren (thanks Jim Canuel) has word on plans for both a patch
for Unreal II, and definitive word on plans for a demo, something that was up in
the air prior to this point (story). Here's the update:
I wanted to give you all a quick update about what's happening on the home front. While we Legend guys haven't been posting here as much as we'd like (things are still pretty crazy here), I assure you we have been reading your comments and concerns, and we take them all very seriously.Update: This Infogrames Support Page (thanks Shacknews) has a new mini-patch that hopefully addresses crashing issues with EAX sound cards.
As you may have read in the forum already, we're planning on releasing a patch sometime soon. It should address a number of the issues that people have raised in these forums. As well, we're going to be releasing a demo, especially targeted at those of you who want to 'try before you buy'. It should be a great benchmark to see how the game runs on your particular system.
In a later post, I'll try to get you some specifics about both of these, but it shouldn't be too long until you've actually got them in your hands.
Thanks to everyone for your support.
I know a number of poeple who's demo was a ripped ISO, and I don't think any patch will convince them to shell out $50 for this game (which they commonly do for games that are sweet). That is unless you fix interactivity problems and the ocasional fall-through-the-map and walk-through-this-huge-cliff/rock (e.g. clipping) bugs... It's not a process I entirely agree with (the pirate then buy if it has any replayability method) but when Legend was touting, "It's so good it doesn't need a demo" just a couple of weeks ago, I can hardly blame 'em. As it turned out I can only guess Legend's real reason for no demo was they need some paying beta testers before they could scrape some more funds for the project, make a patch and show UII to the educated consumer.
