Since it may or may not be in stores near you, it might be tomorrow, so I figured I'd post something about the <A href="http://ascaron.org/rtpatch/sacred/beta/1.5beta2ENG.exe">1.5 Beta 2 patch</a> for <a href="http://www.sacred-game.com">Sacred</a>. Of course, this was supposed to be the <b>1.5 final</b>, but some issues crept up that they want additional testing and feedback on. Here's what <b>Mirko Worsley</b> said in <A href="http://www.ascaron-forum.com//showflat.php?Cat=&Number=47842&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1">this thread</a> about the thing:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>Instead of releasing a final 1.5 Patch the number of quest issues has forced us to look at how the communication between gameclient and gameserver was functioning. This has lead us to the problem that a lot of quest errors where caused by client and server synch problems. We have fixed this issue.
<br>
<br>
Due to the scale of this change, we have decided to postpone the release of the Final Version in order to collect more feedback from the community to address these issues even deeper. The Beta 2 patch has this as the only additional fix, compared to the Beta 1 patch.
<br>
<br>
We have also taken the opportunity to optimise the Lobby further. </blockquote>
<br>
<br>
So, it might not be exactly what people were looking forward to seeing this afternoon, it is progress. That ain't bad.
<br>
<br>
For a list of fixes, <A href="http://www.ascaron-forum.com//showflat.php?Cat=&Number=46078&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1">check here</a>. It's too huge to post.
<br>
<br>
<b>EDIT:</b> The beta 2 patch apparently did some really bad things per that thread, so until that's fixed, there's always <a href="http://www.darkness2k.dsl.pipex.com/Sacred1.51betaENG.exe">1.5 Beta 1</a>.

I like the error message on that link. "We cannot proceed." I love it. It makes the failure sound so communal.
