ETA for the german SMAC patch?

[Brian Reynolds]

German 2.0 patch should be ready within days, same as UK and French
patches.

I have high hopes that 3.0 patch will go much more smoothly for
everyone concerned.

German, UK, and French players may now download SMAC version 2.0 at
www.firaxis.com.

We'll try to get it posted to www.alphacentauri.com as soon as
possible.

Have fun! And many apologies for the wait.

What I'd like is a patch to switch from the rather shoddily translated
French version to the English (US or UK) version...

Thank愀 a lot! We gamers know that you (and your team) weren愒 the bad guys in
this farce. Probably you should only think about changing your publisher.
Actually EA does not reply to any questions or comments on their official
email support address, whether it愀 a polite question nor an angry one.

Do you think that we should all send a post to Europe EA in order to
complaint ? I'm willing to do it. I think they made the mistake.

I did it. Absolutely no response after two weeks.
