Any word on how the progress of a patch is going would be nice team 17 as this game keeps crashing the xbox, so I have stopped playing till the patch is out?:mad:

Great support I must say - no info, not a single thing 1/100

The 1 is for making the game

Team17 staff aren't paid to surf the forum, they're paid to create and develop games, and also develop patches when appropriate. So any time spent browsing forums either has to be taken away from patch development time or done in their own time. Creating a patch isn't something you can knock up overnight, thorough testing has to be done and Microsoft will also have to approve it.

I'd hang on a couple more days before harassing Team17 too much...

Also, developers generally don't like announcing the status of projects like patches because, if it turns out that something went wrong and what they said would be in a patch, isn't, there's HUGE amounts of backdraft from it!

Martyn has said several times that there is a patch in the works. If you bother to look around the forum and at the Team 17 Facebook page you'll see loads of direct replies to customer's questions.

So is it not worth buying until the patch is shown to fix the issues?

LOL....so true......but, personally, i think worms forts isnt WORMS at all....i mean is more forts than worms XD.
They changed the gameplay and there isnt destructable terrain!! O.o
I think no patch can fix that....the whole game was a mistake -.- (opinion)

Well, Worms Forts is a spin-off, after all. It wouldn't have the same gameplay as the regular ones.

But there were a few bugs/annoying issues (like the sudden death animations/events taking ages and bringing games to a standstill) that were promised to be fixed and never were. That's what Plasma was referring to,

EDIT: Oops, I meant thomasp. Please don't infract me :p

Zebie,

Team17 have been making announcements and answering players' questions on their Facebook page. Feel free to drop by and get involved.

We do regularly check this forum, and have been monitoring the known issues thread and peoples' feedback. Sorry if this wasn't made apparent.

-Woody.
