PS Vita "Super Patch"

[Kratos3]

There's plenty of bugs and issues posted here: http://digitalpinballfans.com/showthread.php/1034-Bugs-Glitches-and-General-Issues-PS-VITA along with plenty of outstanding ones in the master lists, hopefully these will be fixed in the megapatch (along with the PS3 ones)

We can only hope.

Agree with the slow ball issues.

I like Victory more than I thought I would too, judging from some of the things I've heard about it.

Any news on when the Vita will get the patch?

Any news on when the Vita will get the patch?

Probably at the same time than the PS3.

From Sir FlippyFloppy, today:

From what I was told, the reason there was an issue with the download was because a line was entered incorrectly that linked the download to a non-existent ball pack which is why it wasn't appearing in the store. It took Sony roughly two weeks to get back to us after we left a few messages to resolve the problem. I believe if everything works out correctly, the mega patch should roll out with the upcoming table packs. So the mega patch was submitted to Sony and were just awaiting approval.

Now, we just have to wait.

Hello Forum Members,

Just to give everyone an update on the Mega Patch status, it's been in Sony's hands so were just awaiting approval. The patch didn't pass our in house testing and instead of delaying the patch any further, we wanted to send the Mega patch that would address several bugs and performance issues because that is what the idea behind the Mega patch is. Basically what the mega-patch is going to do is prompt everyone to download individual updated tables from the PSN store when anyone with an outdated goes in to play it. It shouldn't delete your trophies or save data because it is only replacing your tables.

The features pulled include the Challenge Mode and updated control settings for our Vita users. With that being said we are working on the next patch to implement these features and any other updates.

I can't give a set date since I don't know where its at with Sony, but I imagine it's not going to be much longer. Just wait for the newsletter and we should have some positive news!

Ya I love Fish Tales and BK2K is pretty awesome too. We had a small tournament here at the office after work one night with BK2K

@FlippyFloppy: what do you mean "after work one night"? I thought work ended with daylight coming

But on topic, will the same -initial- fixes that apply to the PS3 version also apply to the Vita version of the Super Patch?

So when or around when will it be released

So when or around when will it be released

The "rumor" says that the Sony's approval process takes around 6 weeks, starting from the submission date.

The megapatch has been submitted two weaks ago... and FlippyFloppy stated that the patch would be released mid-late March, if everything goes right.

But with Sony, I don't bet on this...

 

[DarkAkatosh]

I would say April at this point.

 

[FlippyFloppy]

I imagine it's coming soon. Fish Tales and Black Rose as well.

Very excited for this!

Thanks for the quote. The expected date of release confirms the 6 weeks approval time.

Any chance you can do a log listing all the changes in the patch, or at least list all the tables that have been fixed?

(if this has been done already, can someone link me up?)

No, there isn't and there won't be a changelog.... because FS didn't maintain a changelog. All the fixes have been made "along the road". List all the changes would require too much work now. (Can't find the quotes on the forum, but it's an official statement from FS).

Well I guess it's up to us to find what's new/fixed.
