Multiple reports from the field have arrived in Planetoid Central this evening to tell us that patch 1.08 has hit the servers, three weeks earlier than expected. This patch, nicknamed Edam by Media Molecule (at least we assume this is Edam, it could be an unknown cheese!), should contain a whole bunch of bug fixes, some of which are fairly major ones that have been causing trouble left, right, and center for the last few weeks.
Actual content is so far unconfirmed - Let’s hope everything is fixed now though, huh?
The outlined plans for this patch are listed below, let us know what is and isn’t included!
Edam contains a set of bug fixes and is currently in testing. Specifically the fixes are:
- Failed to save profile’ message not being displayed when a users profile is full.
- Object Capture Bug: switch connectors being deleted when an object is captured.
- Failed to load profile issue: where the user is thrown out to the XMB due to a texture that is not registered in their profile being present in their pod.
- Text not displaying in the text chat window.
- Slow rewind due to moderation check.
- Save file corruption which caused the game to crash when placing any object in an emitter in any level.
Thanks to everyone who sent this in!
Update 1: It looks like this patch could just be related to the forthcoming availability of the God of War costume pack, and not as we all hoped the much needed changes to the game. It’s waaaay past our bed time here on the Planetoid, hopefully the morning will bring with it some clarification!
Update 2: We can confirm that this patch is 13Mb and we notice that it has re-arranged selected content in the LittleBigStore. This screenshot shows how the Kratos’ costume now appears for players who’ve already downloaded it (the God of War pack icon showing the three costumes no longer appears to players who’ve not already downloaded it). This makes sense as the Kratos costume and God of War pack are out on Thursday.
We’ve heard reports of some players still having problems with LBP, so we’re still not 100% sure that the patch is Edam - we’ll report back when we hear confirmation.
Update 3: This patch has been confirmed as a content-only patch, installing the latest costume textures (required for players to see other people online who are using the latest DLC costumes). It’s *not* Edam.
