Nothing to get excited about, really.
Well, there are a few major game functions that will work now, at least according to the list of changes published earlier. I think working guarantees and warning are pretty big issues. Less crash bugs is great as well -- if the patch doesn't introduce to many new ones, that is...
And I'm pretty convinced many of us will use scenarios produced with the editor, if not the editor itself.
On top of that, there are heaps of changes in this patch that really sound as if they will improve the game.
But then again, it is just a patch for a computer game. It may not be terribly exciting from that point of view. I mean, it won't make our marriages happier or our children less prone to become crack addicts. But somehow I doubt that was what JohnMK meant...
I've been waiting for this patch to start my new game, so I'm one happy gamer! Yay!
