Crash to desktop without error message

Do Not Patch On a Friday ffs!

April 25, 2009 2:29:27 PM from Demigod ForumsDemigod Forums

I've tried connecting to multiplayer skirmish games a couple of times now and it seems the patch f***ed it up pretty good for me. It did work yesterday before the patch was released.

I do get the error message others have reported on this forum, but last time I tried it just crashed to desktop without any error message.

But I'm mainly posting this to say: DO NOT PATCH ON A FRIDAY! FFS! People want to play at the weekend and developers understandably do not want to waste their free time working on hotfixes.

Why do developers make the same mistakes again and again and again...? Friday != Patch Day.

You would think that experince devs should know this by now and not patch it on Firday or near holidays.
