P.S. Sweet signature pic, rosemary, but as much as I regret saying this, I think it needs to be made smaller so it doesn't clutter. Smile

Sweet pic though. Who's the artist?

Surely you're right! I will reduce the pic a bit just now!
The artist? *blush* well... I am! *blush* Oops or blush
For the raid, count me on!
However, in the game's patch list of the offical take2's support page, the only game supported is Stronghold 2... uhm...uhm... ok, don't panic!

Ahr! Someone at Firaxis emailed me, just now, that:
We are just about ready to release patch 1.0.2, which will be a world-wide
patch. =)

Oh, God, what a wonderful news! Smile

Aw, it's not a smiley, it's ah...ah...a LOGO? Signature? If it's too big I won't cry if I have to find something else. Well, not much, anyway. Boo hoo! I always wondered what compelled someone to design it, it's so obnoxious.

Two weeks would be grand; but if it's more I'll be happy to wait for it as well. Not as though I'm going anywhere. Razz

Took 'em a while but if it all works out in the end, I remain a happy customer.

I have to agree with Airsaw, and I am not going to install it (providing it does actually appear) until I get Rupertlittlebear's official review!! Razz Razz Razz

I'm sure the naysayers will find fault with any patch no matter how thorough it is in addressing identified issues.

I'll be upset if the morphing Captain of the Guard isn't addressed, though. I want the Captain I duel and the barmaid clonks to be the same bloke wot was harassing the barmaid to begin with!

Not to put too fine a point on things, those on this forum commenting on this "patch to be", are not "naysayers", as you put it. Many of them are accomplished technicians with regard to computers. Others are veterans of video/computer games dating back to Pong. Many of them are ardent fans of Pirates! and have played it faithfully since the first one came out. These are honest concerns voiced by honest people. Some of the tone of the comments comes from having watched this all transpire from day one. You could say the shine has worn off, which was disappointing, but you can see they're still in for good, or ill. I play with the only patch, and you yourself commented on but one of the problems with that. I think craftsmanship and the desire to have a bucket that doesn't leak when one pays for a bucket that doesn't leak, instead of a pretty bucket made of all shiny metal and all with holes in the bottom is the issue at hand here...patch. Plug the holes? Why are there holes in a finished product? Are we, as "consumers" buying faulty goods and just brassing our way through it as a matter of ego, or misplaced confidence? It's no small thing, considering the money these game producers wind-up making off of ... US? Yeah, us. We de peeples.

That is a good looking sight, and a lovely "little" icon you got there too. Kudos. Rosemary has always been one of my favorite names.
My apologies for this post having nothing to do with the forum subject matter. I just couldn't keep myself from commenting. Too much Rum, I'm afraid.

Very Happy
I just went down to Fry's Here locally, and bought me a copy of Pirates!...
It be version 1.02 out of the box YAR!

Now I be not knowin what were done in patch 1.01 for sure, but this version already appears a bit different...there seems to be a few more options under graphics than I remembers!

Could be me old mind and the salty air has corroded my memory as I held off on buyin meself a copy until now, and only bought it now because the patch were due...imagine my surprise when for 19.95 I nabbed a copy with the 2K Games logo on the box, and 1.0.2 inside!

Yar!
