Unofficial Announcements Thread

Hi,

Our developers are working in the studio on the PC and Console fixes and are not public facing so do not post on the forum.

However I have put the dev diary idea forward and it has received some traction so we will certainly be using it for future projects to provide that visibility.

As someone who had a good experience playing through on DX9, I am hopeful that I will be able to 100% the game with DX11 enabled. My save survived my transition to Windows 8 Consumer Preview. I have a GTX460 so am not sure if I'm being realistic in expecting solid 30fps at full HD and maxed DX11, if not the game can wait till I upgrade to a 6xx series GTX.

A changelog would be appreciated although I doubt it will be released until the patch is.

If I may inquire, what do you mean by "developers...are not public facing"?
My understanding of that phrase is: "The developers are stuck coding and are naturally very shy creatures"

It means they don't have to deal with the great unwashed. My advice to anybody is never take a job that is 'public facing'

Well they are quite shy

To be honest they're too busy at the moment and not all of them are keen to be public facing.

I can ask questions and see what can be answered....

Can you PLEASE tell us whether or not there will be story dlc very soon ?!

[SarahMay]

That is most certainly not a question anyone here can answer I'm afraid!

Like, you don't know the answer, or you're not allowed to say anything about it ? Sorry, I just really want to know.

I think that the devs are more focused on the fix right now. (at least on the PC). You choose. Bug fixes or Story DLC? After the game is stable, there may be a story dlc talk.

I agree. This is probably not an easy fix. There may be contractual agreements that need changed with Microsoft. When the fix is out and everyone is playing worry free then perhaps DLC will arrive.

For the rest of you, this is not the only game out there. This company has made a great game. Unforeseen issues with the save game has surely taught this company and others about the dangers of relying on a single save solution. A backup system like Serious Sam may be in the works that saves four or five slots. We don't know yet.

Go play something else and wait for the fix. If the new fix doesn't save your 50 hours of game play then start over when it's safe to play and enjoy it all over.

Oh and leave the staff's personal lives out of the mix. They deserve a break too. You gamers have no idea how stressful a game launch is. They are all probably rotating out of the office to try and get some rest.

Cheers!
