Thanks Firaxis!

Well, was radio removed? Not really... no need to complain. In fact, it's now common knowledge of ancients:

Thought this was a joke when I first saw this. I thought you manufactured this to make fun of the fact that radio was gone.
Looks like they didn't remove it, they just gave it to everyone with no benifits or attributes.
At least we won't bored in our huts at night listening to radio.![]()

MP players have not been able to load a saved game. So this patch is pretty much a joke for MP. The MP tournement scenario has hardcoded the toggles for game rules settings so they don't work in the set-up room. This patch is beyond belief. Is there anyway we can create enough of a protest that Atari takes the rights to design Civ4 away from Firaxis. They have proven their utter incompetence with this patch release.

I have never found reasons to gripe or complain about previous patches as I was just happy to see that: a.) They were attempting fix existing problems. b.) They were adding new gameplay mechanics to make the game even better. c.) They were trying to appease their customers.
However, I must take issue when they not only take away gameplay mechanics (namely radio), but do so in such a messy manner. Furthermore, it seems the patch has created problems in the mp community too.
I agree wholeheartedly with Pirate: Instead of removing radio, Firaxis should have enhanced it in order to make it worth researching (a problem I never had) and enhancing gameplay. Moreover, it would seem to me that if they absolutely had to remove a tech, they could have found a better one to remove, such as Ironclad.
I sent a message to Firaxis detailing these arguments and hope that all those interested will do so too. Hopefully, these issues and more will be addressed in a future patch.
That's the reason why I am still playing PTW. If this is a good patch without any major updates later, then i'm will start too add my mod into the game and play it(with the radio added.Originally posted by Amesjustin
if you were modding in a scenario (like you should be) then no. If you have been modding the basic game, then some of it will probably be overwritten. Back up your files first.

Well, you could all just try renaming the now useless radio something like "Fishing" or something. That'd at least make your opening screen make sense.
