Forums: Index > Watercooler > Rename from 1.5 to 1.4.1 is not good



The renaming of the Patch from 1.5 to 1.4.1 is not a good indication. For those with a background in software development, you will understand. For everyone else, let me explain.

When the first release comes out, it's named 1.0. It's the orginial. Depending upon the amount of changes made, subsequent versions with vary in number. The more decimal points there are, the FEWER changes are made.

1.0 - original
1.1 - significant changes, glitch fixes, new items
1.1.1 - minor changes, tweaks
1.1.1.1 - trivial changes, typo corrections, changing a color
2.0 - a major rewrite, new look, new functionality

The change from 1.5 to 1.4.1 means that no significant changes are being made. To me, this means definitely no PT3, no glitch fixes, no 'developer fumble' fixes, nothing more significant than the level raise and rebalancing.

If you were disappointed with DLC4, you're probably not going to feel much better about the Patch ... whenever it comes out!
