From their forums. We've still got a wait ahead of us, but I'm hoping they get this one right. I'm pretty much not wanting to play the game till they fix a lot of the bugs.

I know some of you are getting impatient and feel we are not keeping you informed. We do not want to rush the patch out before it is ready. We have been reading the forums from Day 1 and want to make sure that we address as many issues as possible. The patch is extensive in what it addresses and this includes battle map AI, campaign AI, UI issues, balancing, multiplayer, and general bugs. It is, as you can see from that basic list, very comprehensive.

Up till now we have been reluctant to issue a date for the patch as we have not wanted to give misleading information. We now feel confident enough to state that the patch will be out no later than the middle of January. Bear in mind, however, that it will need to go through QA. This is an exhaustive process and why we only get the one chance to get it right. Please be patient: we have been working very hard to make this patch as good as it can be and I know it will be worth the wait.

What? You mean there are people in a gaming forum that are screaming that they WANT THIS PATCH NOW and are pissed that the developers are not sending them internal plans? Imagine that.

I always felt for those 40 or so poor town guards I stuff into provincial forts.
