    I believe he said that the ETA was February, but in any case an ETA is just an estimate.

    If the patch is released in March instead of February, can people please not lash out like a gaggle of 10-year-old girls who bought tickets to a canceled Justin Bieber concert?

    "What's the ETA on the patch?"
    Greg: "February"

    But that's only "estimated time of arrival" -- he could have been off by a month or three.

    LOL I've been sitting by my CPU all day with bloodshot eyes waiting for this thing. I had to check my calender a couple of times to remind myself it still is February. I guess all of the EMF from the CPU made me a little hazy. I just hope it'll be here before my eyes pop out and my brain gets baked.

    Just so I can see the time and context, could I have a URL for that?

    Well, some of us won't. Can't offer any reassurance on 'enough to avoid a forum implosion'...

    What difference does time and context make.

    Question: "What's the ETA on the patch?"
    Answer: "February"

    You cant take that out of context

    I doubt it would detract from the obvious meaning; it might add more meaning, though.

    In the original patch notes message Greg had an introduction from Dennis the Producer of Civ5 at Firaxis. This is probably the closest to saying it is due out in February and not just an ETA:

    "This February patch comes at a great time for making balance changes; The five months since Civ V’s release has given us time to analyze "

    Hm. I really like the choice of Polynesia. But, they probably didn't spend too much time on it and it's only just DLC to go along iwth the patch.

    I might get them if I like the patch.

    This is the very first time Polynesia has made it into the game series! It's nice to see that the Firaxis team really do listen to us!
    Can't wait to play as them, but I have to wait for American time to catch up. :S

    inorite?

    Been up since noon yesterday, hopefully it'll drop soon. I want my Kamehameha!

    soon 2pm in Europe (CET), when will the DLC be available?

  17. #57
    I hope I don't have to be glued to my couch and CPU again today waiting for something to be released. I did an all night session just to finish my current game before Polynesia is released and I'm already grumpy from being nuked in 3 of my 6 cities LOL!

    Came back to this tab with just this post visible, and not seeing what the thread was about at the time, I thought for a moment that this was something to do with dragonball (which wouldn't mix well with Civ)...

    How come they're using the east asian art style for polynesia?

    So I guess the next patch will come out when the next DLC is ready? This is how it seems now. Maybe we get a minor patch inbetween but the major patch will not come out until there is a DLC.

    So will this mean, that if the DLCs start slowing down that major patches will stop coming as well?

    Hey guys, the DLC is available now. Here's a little walkthrough video that we made that shows off the content in the DLC:

    Pete is the Marketing Associate at Firaxis. He's a really swell guy and he does pretty much all of these voice-over walkthroughs that we have made.

    Question on how the Maori Warrior works: Does it keep the "terrorizing" ability as it is upgraded to Swordsman and beyond, like the Jaguar Warrior keeps its healing ability? Also, what %age does it diminish enemy units' strength?
