Post was edited for adding links, as when i downloaded there was only 2 to choose from.

Not that it really matters tbh.
People who want to help out as much possible to get our sim up and running ASAP will do so.
For those who only want to troll and trow crap at it there will only be a reason, bug or feature not to their liking to get hung up on.

Tree, I saw B6's post very shortly after it went up as well. It always said alpha patch in the message body even though the title says beta.

I'd say the mis-match is one of two things: Either simply down to B6 not being a native English speaker or they left the title as beta patch since that's how it's been referred to for months.

The edits in that post are the added download mirrors.

I can also confirm that at the time I posted BS post refered to the patch as 'alpha' twice

In this instance, I'm afraid you're reading too much into this.

Or in his case reading too little ;)

I have no reason to lie to you, Tree. I usually don't get involved with these pissing matches because I think they are fruitless and forge bad feelings. BUT, the body of the original post by Black Six has always said Alpha. In the original post there was only two DL links for the international patch, now there are three.

seriously even if it had said Alpha no one can say they wouldn't have downloaded it would they? I sure would have.

I dont see the fuss anyone can roll back to the last release if they want...or they could play a few games of the 'alpha' and send in a crashdump or observations. After all this is why they released the patch in the first place.

I also read 'alpha' in BS's initial post, very soon after it went up.

I could change it to read Alpha instead of Beta

But where's the fun in that............ watching the usual suspects struggling to find some leg room to swing thier boot and give the devs a kicking is funny.

Keep it up the entertainments great and I'm sure the rest of the community appreciates it too.

:grin:

Nobody cares if you're bad at reading or not.

It's an alpha patch.

S!

I just posted bugs in bugtracker in hope to assist in finalizing the patch in some way :) It brought some new good things, broke some but such it is with alpha/beta.

2. the truth, yes cod is in bad shape and will remain so, partly because of bad treatments during his infancy, the team is running out of fuel and BoM is the only way to save the company.

3. accept it or leave, no one is happy with it but it's getting utterly tiresome to hear a constant whining, there is snot all over the place.

Very well said on points 2 & 3..after a year being patience i'm feed up. Personally I've never really had bad fps, but all the other bugs and problems and missing features have left me exasperated.

Progress feels like they have one over worked novice working on it in a basement without ventilation.

On point 1, i kept on hearing 'we won't release a patch until its right' type rhetoric, and what do we get.. an alpha patch.. all i can say to that is FFS!

I uninstalled the game yesterday.. if i had a disk of CloD i'd snap it. I'll return in 6 months.. but i won't expect anything.

Bye.

Well Alpha or beta, its still a patch that as broken as much as its fixed like all previous patches, very shoddy work.

I don't think you understand what this patch is for Tree, that or your just being an awkward g**.
