The new patch rocks

Malleus Dei · 10-28-2009, 10:47 PM

I started a fresh 1965 historical league right after I downloaded the last patch, and I can't tell you how much non-buggy fun I'm having playing it.

Good job on the patches, Markus!

agreed!! The game seems very tight.

I am not so sure. I ended a fictional season the other day and cleaned out all the old files so that the game would load quicker. I was able to load the game in about 30 seconds. The following day I patched up and load time went to over ten minutes. And in the past two days I have twice crashed to desktop.

Guess I should also post this in the tech support thread.

Malleus Dei · 10-29-2009, 01:24 PM

My load times are not increased. I wonder what's going on.

I am also running the game on my home computer (which is brand new) and the patch didn't do me any harm there. I may have other issues with this machine.

You could always try the full download instead of patch...

When MD likes something, it's GOT to be good!

I did a double take when I saw the title of this thread and who posted it

He's the new and improved MD ever since the aliens took him aboard for a tuneup...

My wife of many years says the same thing.

You have to remember that I have been a customer and player of this game since version 1. That's fairly conclusive evidence that I must really enjoy the game.

Now I do think that some things that aren't being done should be done, and some things that are being done should be improved substantially - like GM's and managers - that other things should be done differently, and that some things that are being done shouldn't be done at all. But none of that means that I don't enjoy the game, it just means that I would enjoy it even more if it was tightened up and improved.

Here's a little tid bit about MD I think is true. I believe it was back around the time OOTP3 came out.

Printing. MD fought for the ability to be able to print within the game. Without MD, there would be no priinting in OOTP.

Yeah, in theory, but I have been around since version 2, and I know you would hang around and crap in someone's raisin bran if they deserved it, whether you liked it or not!

That's what happened. There was this German guy who thought that no one would ever want to print anything from the game.

Well, if they deserved it, they deserved it.

jaxmagicman · 10-30-2009, 02:38 PM

Nah, I like the old patch. I still haven't smoked in over 30 years!

Ok if I use a Mac, do I have to download the patch for the Mac?
