Hellgate: London players who've had their copy of the game sitting all
alone on a shelf somewhere may want to dust off their discs, because the 1.2 patch for non-subscribers is heading their way. The big reason this matters is mostly because the last patch that single (re: non-subscribing) players got was the
0.6 patch back in December. Well, that's not the only reason, the other is that this patch will bring with it a metric ton of
updates, including lots of bug fixes. We're glad to hear it, because the game looks like it could be pretty enjoyable -- if not for the amount of fun-ending issues.
Flagship Studios have the patch in their final Q&A state and are readying a beta version of it for players to try out sometime this week. The patch itself contains all the content and updates that the multiplayer version of the patch had -- so essentially it's the same patch as the one
released on March 17th.
We sincerely hope these patches keep on
coming, because with every improvement the game receives we're finding it harder to resist a summertime purchase out of sheer curiosity.
