A lot of high quality communication went on today between Taldren and Activision and we have agreed to consider past frustrations as misunderstandings and failures of relationship management.

So in other words you kissed and made up. Some of the best times I've had with my wife were during the kiss and make up phase.....ahhh but I suggest you guys just keep it to handshakes.

<Begin shameless plug> I hope this means that GAW is again a possibility. <End shameless plug>

I have to ask....did they put the Taldren links back up at the official SFC3 website now that Taldren has removed the patch complaint threads?

Great to see that it is worked out. Although I too feel Activision have a lesson to learn from this.

hi just found out that the beta patch we've all been waiting for is finally here taa daa I was so excited. followed the link to activision to begin downloading the "fix" and lo and behold in the third pargraph it says do not download this if you are a dialup. I'm crushed almost at a loss for words which is highly unusual for an alabama chickenhauler. continuing it says the reason for this is that it will introduce lag. I got news for ya there is already lag. so, ok I realize that we dialups are a minority, some of us have no choice because we live in remote areas where a fast connection is just not available no matter how much we beg, threaten, or try to bribe the powers that be. we are out there I know because I have met a few besides myself so here are my questions for whomever can give a possible answer or other info,

are all dynaverse 3 gameservers going to be installing this patch?

when will this issue be fixed?

where can we dialups find support?

I know there are alot of dialups out there (remember when everybody was a dialup?) feel free to contact me at gravyofbama@aol.com maybe someone should start a webpage or domain just for the dialup issues.

if all the gameservers choose to install the patch I will have no other choice but to install it also and dam the consequences.

shame on me for not doing bug research on this game before I bought it, but I paid good money for it with the thought in mind that I would be able to play online with others.

I will wait patiently for a short time for the dialup patch and see which way the wind blows.

Very good work...

I must admit, I'm enjoying the replay of everything, but it's almost silly of me to say that the one thing I was waiting for and got was my chance to advance beyond the rank of Lieutenant

Sometimes, it's the little things that make the difference.

Thanks,

GM

****Bugs still to fix****

Refit/Repair bug still remains
Lag is worse even with Broadband
People still get stuck in game
When a battle dosnt start on the 2nd countdown, you get charged 1000 disrepute

There was another bug, but on the last point I just made: This is intolerable, for honest players to get charged disrepute because they are flying with a human wing (hence the no game start) is unbelievable. Please please no severs run this setting if it can be turned off, I dont mind the game being far harder and really needing to work my way up (thats great in fact), but this bug makes it silly.

Wish I could remember that other bug now, should write these things down.

Heh, nice move by ACTIVI. After a while no one will play on their 1.0 servers and they can justify taking them down.

BAH!

Congrats to you, Taldren, and Activision. I am glad to hear problems have been resolved!

RDamon · « **Reply #90 on:** February 25, 2003, 12:51:48 pm »

Thanks to everyone involved for all their hard work on the patch!

One question though: (And apologies if I've missed something obvious here) can someone confirm that the rank bug IS fixed as it doesn't appear on the list of bug fixes. And to get my 'proper' rank do I have to restart a single player campaign? I ask because I tried my save game (from release version of game near the end of the Klingon campaign) after installing the patch and I'm still a Lieutenant - do I need to start over to proceed in rank? (I.E. do I not suddenly jump to the rank I would've been had the bug not been there from the start?)

Thanks, and sorry if that sounds confusing.

Cheers!

Mark

Is it true that the patched version of SFC3 will not support online play by modem? That certainly would "solve" the lag problem -- just wait until no one is looking and then toss the screaming little 56k runts in the river.

Harry take it with a grain of salt some people have strong opinions but remember there just that opinions. My ? is why don't people post there bugs and what not in the sfc3 beta bug forum and not every where else maybe a new rule should be made like there is with off topic post ?
