Where's the patch for European PS3 users?

DaCajun1216 is right, how can it be HARDCORE MODE with crosshairs and auto aim?

i cannot understand this. it was realistic before. i mean it's hard enough to snipe someone whos running around and jumping all the time. it does suck ubi- i donte even want you to fix it. just admit that it KINDA sucks!!

WOW, sounds like .50 cal is broken then? (I'm in Finland with PS3 haven't seen this yet)

Did you shoot scoped in or not? Beucause it crossed my mind that they have done a "no-scope fix" = weapon makes more damage when zoome in. Like for example in FEAR 2 game wepons work that way for balance reasons.

I don't think there is yet and it probably hits at same time for all. I think those that say it's out are some children and are having fun as being an idiot?

I totally agree with you guys, crosshairs could go, but i don't really mind that much. However totally disabling auto aim would be awesome, but unfortunately it's a deep dream

Gimble: the thread title was updated from Xbox to Xbox and PS3 yesterday, so someone must have it.

This patch still has not fixed the stuck at 73% and unable to open door for the mission. Any news when this so called "GAME CHOICE ISSUE" or as we like to call it "BUG" is fixed ?

C'mon peeps... When is the European patch gonna be delivered?

@ GimbleFin
It takes around 4-5 shots scoped in to the chest to kill someone with the .50 cal sniper rifle now even in hardcore mode and yes North America has the PS3 patch since a couple days ago.

It doesn't fix already broken games, it just reduces the chance that stable games will become unstable.

As for me. I think I've been pretty patient, not gone on a rant about Ubisoft etc, but the frustration now is becoming greater by the hour.

1/ Xbox patch was released on Monday. Renewed hope for the PS3 and PC users.

2/ rumours that a PS3 patch was available in the US on Tuesday. No confirmation on this forum at all. Non North Americans have no patch and can't play online v Americans.

3/ this thread is updated on Thursday stating that the PS3 patch is now available. No post was made in the thread by the mods to highlight it or provide any info

4/ midday Friday in Europe and still no PS3 patch, no response to any requests for info on why this is the case, nor when it will be rectified.

Again, the main problem seems to be one of communication. If I was told why there's no Euro patch and that it'll be released within x days then fine... but to be left wondering when/what/why is irritating in the extreme.

The title of this thread is incorrect - the PS3 patch is NOT universally available.

Communication sure is terrible. No signs of a patch in Europe. Title is BS and should say it's avalable in USA only at this point. Also some additional info of a EU patch release would be really welcome. I don't understand what is keepeng them from realising it, since EU and USA versios are identical if i have understood correctly?

I don't know if there's multiple language versions of the game in Europe as someone suggested that on here the other day. Certainly my UK edition has no language option, so who knows?

Just some info would do me, but it seems even that isn't forthcoming since this situation has been ongoing since Tuesday.

REPLY @ GimbleFin

i've always scoped for shooting, unless at close range. i dont see why someone would not want to scope! it makes aiming much more differcult, no?

I would like to know why Ubi.Vigil, the UK Community manager, going by the last edit, decided to add the note about the PS3 patch being available. Obviously their is a distinct lack of communication between staff within Ubisoft, nothing new there then...

This is great news. Does this update fix the problems with the ugly shadows on the xbox 360 version?

I've just noticed this on the 1st post

Update: PlayStation® patch 1.03 now also available

1.03 is the current version. I updated mine in April so it can't be the new patch (the change log is not remotely the same as the Xbox one).

The new version should be 1.04.

Surely we aren't being informed about a patch we already got ages ago?

Hi all,

Sorry for the delay with this info.

The FarCry 2 Title Update for PS3 (Euro) has been sent to Sony for approval but a small issue was encountered. As soon as the issue is resolved, the patch will be released to all PS3 Territories.

Thank you for your continued patience at this time.

Thanks Raide. I don't mind waiting as long as I know what's up, and that something is being done.

Raide,please tell me,how many days more we will wait for pc edition,days,weeks...??

I rang Sony a few days ago to ask about this, and they said they hadn't recieved a patch. Is there any news on what the issue is???

Or, why don't they release the same patch that is in the US at the moment, and once they have fixed the European one, release that to patch over the top?

I have no exact details on what the issue is, so I cannot really elaborate, sorry.

While it would be nice to do that, it would take more time and resources for SCEE to upload the US version and then the EU version. I don't really know the complexities behind their Patch Approval process, so I cannot really say what is or is not possible. At this moment, we are waiting to hear what the issue is and as soon as it is sorted, Euro PS3 owners will be able to access the patch.

A patch isn't the full code for the game and presumably there are some minor differences between the US and Euro versions, so you couldn't put a patch compiled for the US version into the code for the Euro.

That's a guess by the way.

Hopefully it'll be resolved in the next few days.

Well I tested the save issue. I had a good save at 69% on my xbox, but every save after that would lock up the xbox. Last night I started from my 69% save and low and behold, my new save at the 73% worked. Now to keep my fingers crossed that it will continue to work through the rest of the game
