rud Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 let's hope you're right, even though this is a completely unacceptable way to get any news from them. Not mad that you posted what they told you, I'm glad you did...just mad that the only way we can hear it is second hand :-P Here's hoping for some official announcements and what better be a damn good patch!

Bladerunner_UK Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Rockstar Toronto game me that confirmation. You can expect optimization and performance boost along with graphical/bug fixes. Rockstar WooHoo!!! Good news, BUT: How soon is 'soon'? Days? Weeks? Months even? Also, what sort of level of optimisation can we hope for? Are the graphical bugs you speak of anything to do with the very bad shadows?

For once I agree with charlie Did you sit down and have a cup of coffee with them and talk about it? How can you get confirmation on a patch from them yet most of us can't even get a reply from them on anything.

rud Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 kaspersky gave us accurate news regarding the 1st patch 3 days before we saw it ourselves, plus he's probably had more contact with Rockstar support than most of the people here. It's not certifiable proof but he, knowing the way Rockstar's been working we probably won't get that until the day the new patch, err *cough* title update *cough* *cough* *hack* *wheeeeeze*, comes out.

Cdnalsi Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I just got a call from Rockstar and this is what they said (more or less - I didn't make a transcript) "We're working on the PC engine 24/7. We want to make it more efficient on computers. I think we have to re-write it though, we'll see. And also, if a guy named kaspersky posts anything about the second patch, know that he's 100% right about it, but I can't believe he didn't keep his mouth shut. Jesus, it was really hard for me to log in and post the damn thing myself, so that's why I told kaspersky."

kaspersky Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 (edited) Let's say I have some connections with Rockstar toronto developer department. they have been testing the game with a lot of different configurations. also in the current "stage" of the game, second patch is a mandatory. you can also expect a permanent fix for the spin problem caused by the first patch.

nicotin3 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Well, its nothing but obvious that they must be working on some sort of update/patch.

kaspersky Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 (edited) We will see about that. Rockstar never left this game. they are well aware of the problems it has. TITLE UPDATE 2 will be released. EDIT: You can Truly expect a real fix for certain video memory issues. Rockstar has temporarily disabled Clip Capture feature for users with less than 1.8Gb memory, in the second patch they will turn this feature back on. also there will be a fix for the camera/fursor bugs as I already said.
