Just wonderin, when will they actually start to add/fix the things we complain about the most? Sure, they added automap, big whoop. i heard things like they were gonna add customization in 1.3.. it was suposed to already have been implemented on release.. hopefully most of u all kno that.. also when are they gonna fix the lag? Or fix the bug that spawns u on the roof in arindal, and make it so u cant move? Or add furniture, or add artic lands and caves like they said they will have on the box? Anyone else they are being lazy about this whole issue? or lack the skills to fix these problems?

I don't think they know exactly what they are doing, but they should have a bug list in front of them a mile long with most being simple fixes.

I wonder, at this point, if they are mostly easy fixes, Shock.
It's quite possible that the cobbled together code is reacting like:
Fix one problem...create two more...(and I suspect that's been the case for quite a while now...thus the elimination of promsied features just to get the game to function at all...)
We've seen the simple fixes in the first two patches. Which, at least for some time to come, is probably all we're gonna see.
While I wish them well, I don't hold any great expectations of seeing much else in the way of fixes for DL.

If I remember correctly, THEY stated that "things like automap and customization were being worked on and patch 1.3 would be out soon." They DID NOT say what would be in patch 1.3

And now they're saying nothing...
...thus I presume nothing is coming out soon...

It's knowing that people got suckered into something that was advertised, touted in interviews, and so forth as being this great RPG achievement and seeing the final broken result and the cheated consumers that really makes me wish I never knew about this game.

AMEN brudder! I had a lot of confidence in D.W.Bradley,lost just a tad with Wizards & Warriors ( but I Knew Most of that was due to Activisions Insistence that it Be Released a bit prematurely-funding only ONE Patch and then leaving Bradley to put the 2nd one out at His own Expense) but with this Release I feel Bradley really did Lose his "Marbles'. I have almost no hope that Bradley will survive this debacle! What a Shame for such a highly acclaimed Game Designer to go down the Tubes this way!

He's not THAT highly acclaimed...at least not like Sid Meier, Richard Garriott, or Peter Molyneau.
He collaberated on a few Wizardries and then seemed to botch up his future creations after going out on his own. He should have stayed with Sir Tech and maybe they would have remained in business
...or maybe not.
