Any estimate on first post-release patch?

[Xenrek]

Sounds like due to code-freeze for release; whatever issues getvseen in streams and whatnot are there for release. But also sounds like many are fixed in first patch.

So; 2 weeks into September I got a vacation, with a canceled trip due to poor pandemic handling in my country, so was wondering if the first patch set would be out by then?

I mean day one patches/Hot-fixes aren't unheard of so it's possible I guess, I would still say unlikely though.

I would imagine the first patch will be in the first week at the very least. The release version is indeed frozen, but that doesn't mean they can't start working on a patch right now, but I imagine they will wait a little bit to see if more bugs are found after release

1.0 is released on release day. 1.0.1 contains fixes for truly game-breaking issues (e.g. CTD's - probably not the inheritance glitch), and it is usually out within a week (exactly one week for Imperator and HoI4, two days for Stellaris). 1.0.2 and 1.0.3, should they be necessary, would be on a similar timescale (generally the rockier the release, the more hotfixes are needed).

1.1 can be a month after release (HoI4, Stellaris) or up to two months (Imperator). That's fixes for more regular bugs, and also some content that barely didn't make it into the game proper.

For the inheritance thing, the only way it could be fixed in 1.0.1 is if they noticed and fixed it a long time before release, but barely not in time for 1.0. That's a narrow window, so don't count on it.

In today's DD, they did say however that there is already a 1.1 patch that has at least one fix completed in it, so it's already being worked on if nothing else.

1.02 was the release version for CK2, with 1.03 coming three days later, so not sure why people think that a month old version will be the release version.

What's the inheritance bug you mention?

There is a bug that was shown on stream where inheritance passes through the mother, and can go to half brothers instead of following the father as it should

I was just referencing the last three PDX releases (Imperator, HoI4, Stellaris) - CK2 was nearly a decade ago. Though you're right that for DLC they have on occasion put out x.0.1 versions as the release version.

Gotcha. Although it's not the same it reminds me of a bug that plagued one of the early versions of CK2 in 2012 where inheritance could pass to your daughter's kids, rather than your son's kids (if I recall correctly, it's been a while).

But anyways good to see they'll hopefully have it sorted out eventually.
