In order to keep the patch notes thread a bit easier to find information and be overall less intimidating for people just hoping to find the notes, we're going to separate the two.  Please use this thread to discuss the patch for new issues, feedback, and so forth.

 

Patch 4 was just posted here and is currently available for the PC. We are working to have it available on the consoles next week.

So you're calling the shield hotfix Patch 4? *shrugs* Any word on a Patch 5 then?

 

Yeah, I think there's just something about needing to completely increment the number from a data stand point, so it's easiest to simply say "it's patch 4" rather than communicating that it's "Patch 3 hotfix" while the patch data actually says "Patch 4."  It'd end up confusing because visible "Patch 4" would be tracked internally as "Patch 5" and guaranteed someone will make a mistake and get confused!

 

I don't have any news on patch 5 at this time unfortunately. I'll touch base to see if we can at least get a timeline on when we're able to get more information for that.

Apologies for ignoring this thread so far. I'm getting a chance to look it over more thoroughly now that Patch 4 has gone live for all platforms.  I appreciate everyone taking the time to respond thus far.

I am a little confused. Patch 4 is going to release on consoles next week, but when was patch 3 released for consoles? Unless patch 4 includes patch 3, something is not right

 

Just to clarify for this, Patch 4 indeed includes Patch 3 on consoles. It's just a function of having faster turn around times on the PC that we were able to deploy Patch 4.  It's mostly just "book keeping" to stay in alignment with our versioning numbers with our partners (Microsoft and Sony).

 

Sorry for this confusion and it's a strange circumstance but it sounds like it's less our call when I poked around.

I ask that people try to not make this a general discussion thread.  Reading past discussions over things like Duke Nukem Forever and game development time and whatnot makes the thread unnecessarily larger and slows down my ability to read and collate the actual issues.

 

Thank you.
