This reminds me a lot of Outriders. 6 months and all Stadia users got was the Day One patch and that was also heavily delayed.

I wish the developers would give some indication of when or if we can expect patches.

Otherwise I too would return the game.

Sorry I did not have any news for you sooner. 1.0.3.253 went to certification, and should release this week, though I can't give you a specific day. Regarding the update that will arrive on PC on the 28th, I unfortunately haven't received any information yet.

As far as our silence is concerned: I am sorry not being able to give you news about Stadia more often but we bring you information as soon as we have it. Nevertheless, I want to assure you that even if we may not have notable news to share with you, we are always keeping an eye on all parts of the community.

Thanks! Will you be letting us know when it launches since we have no version number? Can't wait to start a new game.

Thank you. It’s good to be heard by someone, sometimes… 

Really appreciate your feedback and honesty.

Thanks for taking the time.

At the moment it is just great that it will be worked on and at least we should receive 1.0.3

Thanks for the heads up!

I already noticed last Saturday that now the War Score breakdown is displayed better. If I remember correctly, this is a feature of the corresponding patch. So it seems that the patch has been live since at least Saturday.

Okay great we got an official response after weeks of official blackout and community poetry.

So keen to know when we get that 1.03 patch and can experience the full game that PC have had for over a month. 

I have not been interested in playing the flawed base game last few weeks. And this is after putting 100 hours into the game within a week of launch.

Did the Stadia version get its update now or not? Or is the patch still to come? A version number is not visible.

Not yet... According to the devs on Twitter, the update should arrive this week.

I talked to our producer earlier. Apparently, the patch went live sooner than we expected and was in fact already available when I posted the previous reply. According to what I was told, the 1.0.3.253 patch was released on Stadia on the 20th of October. We're also aiming to bring you the Fabius Maximus update in late November, though it may also be early December if we run into further issues.

Thank you, I hope we can get a minor fix that shows “current version” anytime soon. I’d say it should not be that difficult.

Thanks for the update. But it's sad to see that we are missing the limited event on Stadia.

Could you explain why?

Because Stadia users are a minority and understandably not the main target market to spend limited resources?

Maybe it was better to delay release on Stadia if the same content cannot be delivered. Some unhappy Stadia users could have been happy PC users and some would have waited to later become happy Stadia users.

What about giving a free PC copy to Stadia users just for now?

If you sell a game for a platform, you should look after it the same way you look after everyone else. Otherwise, you should simply not offer it. Whether there are 12 or 12,000 or 12,000,000 people playing. They give you your money just like everybody else.

It shouldn't be about any "your platform is better" things. 

So... what will happen with the Día de los Muertos event on the Stadia Platform if it get's it's update a month late?

It's honestly more of a process issue. Our current pipeline is not well-suited to delivering a quick port to Stadia, as we did not have experienced working with Stadia before Humankind. Since this update will arrive so much later than on PC, unfortunately you will not be able to participate in this event for now. I hope we will find solutions to let the Stadia players join these events in the future.

That is a really strong answer and thank you for being so open. It's a welcome change :)

As a player, you can understand the processes behind it and sometimes close an eye if you know what's happening and why.

Hopefully we will be able to participate in the future. Otherwise, the game on Stadia is great.

Thanks for the candid and timely answer. And also for getting back to us on timelines around 1.03 and 1.05 patches.
