I think I remember reading somewhere the first patch due for F1RC was being
released on the 15th or 16th April? Has anyone seen it, and whats it
supposed to fix (hopefully the damn AI!)?

I don't think they will be releasing it today. It is easter monday you know.
I think it is very strange of them to pick this date for the release of the
patch. If they really do release it today I will eat my old hat. :-)

Well I mean thats what I figured too, being Easter weekend. Companies
usually dont even release stuff over weekends, so being holidays is even
stranger. But then thats the date they said, so....

Giving a date for a patch is a bit dim, IMO. How can they know when a
patch will be done ahead of time? Doesn't jive with me and shouldn't
with you guys either.

It sort of works both ways though, or a case of you're damned
if you do or you're damned if you don't.

Papy is being flamed being non-commital to a patch let alone
a date, and it's likely Ubisoft will be flamed for being commital
for a patch, but missing the date.

Unless the patch had been submitted for final testing before the
date was given, then I would be skeptical of the date. It's done
when it's done, but a patch is in the works is good enough for
me.

Cheers,
Rod.

I just read in the alpha f1 forum that the patch is finished and is now
being approved by FIA. God knows why they need to to this.

  To make sure that the programmers didn't put in code that would allow more
than two or three online racers at once of course!    And to make sure that
the
powers of F1, Ferrari and Mclaren cannot be beaten by such lowly marks as
Arrows and Minardi....isn't it obvious??
