Can anyone provide me with a definite list of things that this patch has included please? I can't seem to find it anywhere. It appears to me they have included scenarios for multiplayer unranked games, and also I heard someone mention a change in the way settlers work, but I'd really like to read something official. It seems a bit ridiculous that they'd release a patch that TOTALLY changes the way the game is played (with the settler thing) and not actually tell anyone about it.

Obviously you've never played an MMORPG...

Quite right, I haven't, I'm 100% a console gamer. Still, no further information to add for me then?

Anyone? Please?

Hey, I don't know if you have been to 2Kforums on this

Things are totally crazy over there. The patch was supposed to be clearing the way for the downloadable content later, but as you will see in the 11 pages of comments, many people are experiencing the same issues as you.

And someone actually posted pictures of this happening:

The clusterf*** that has happened with this game (the multiplayer, the patches) is kinda crazy. Maybe I've just never noticed with other games cause I've never been on a forum like this for any other games. It is kinda crazy there would be this many bugs for a game that had already been out for some time in Europe.

Eh, but oh well. Still a great game. And I'm so glad I've got an XBOX360, just because the MP issues sound much worse on the PS3.

Hah... Clearly you weren't around when Beyond the Sword first came out :lol:

LOL, or even the "Play the World" expansion for Civ3 which promised multiplayer mode but never actually worked for a single game in my life.
