UC: A World Apart Patch Glitch

3000AD sends along word on a glitch with the initial release of the version 1.00.03 auto-update for Universal Combat: A World Apart. Here's word on the problem, and the updated update, which does not iterate the game's version number:

Yesterday we released the v1.00.03 patch to the public via the in-game patch Updater. We have since discovered that an incorrect character asset was included in the original game distribution. This would cause one of the Instant Action scenarios (IA0113) which uses that asset, to fail upon loading.

To this end, we have re-issued this patch today and corrected this problem.

For those who have not yet updated their version, running the in-game Updater will download the new version.

For those who have already updated their version, the steps described in the v1.00.03 section of the recently updated version control file show how to force the Updater to re-download and re-apply the patch.

We apologize for this error. Hope you are enjoying the game as much as we enjoyed developing it.

#22 if you HAD a brain and were actually intelligent enough to be able to scrounge up two brain cells to formulate sensible thought, you'd know that there was a reason for my doing it this way. But of course, since stupidity - not to mention being of obviously inferior intellect - is always an excuse to be an asswipe, it never did occur to you that increasing a version number serves no purpose other than to add confusion. I could easily have rolled it out as 1.00.04 and let the patch do its work.

Derek Smart rips his customers a new hole on his forums because they're not "intelligent" enough to know how to A. install his game B. patch it and C. play it. You know what Derek, why don't you tell your team to cater to the lowest common denominator. LCD is the reason WOW is doing so well versus other MMOGs. Oh what's that? You have your gigantinormous brain force field turn on that deflects suggestions.... phooey.

The most exercise some people get is jumping to conclusions.
