No, I actually have no clue what pointing out a news headline has to do with the meaning "patch" vs "version" -- I don't think you realize the difference.

Let me put it this way: Why are you trying to force people to use your definition, denholm? It's an update, it's a patch, it's a version.

It's ALL of these.

ANY of these are valid.

Asking "when is the update?"

is the same as asking "when is the patch?"

is the same as asking "when is the new version?"


Why are you quibbling over something that everybody can understand anyways?

There's a difference between the patch and the new version. In this game a Patch is designed to fix bugs from the recently released versions. A new version includes new features, and sometimes, fixed features.

nope

HTC doesn't refer to it as a "patch" -- that's just a common term in the English language relating to software.

HTC might call 'em "bug fixes" or "update"

Your definition is limited. Sometimes a new "version" incorporates no discernable new features, as we have had a few that changed the way stuff was worked on behind the scenes (in preparation for adding CT and what-not).

Anyways, the only official terms HTC uses are "VERSION" and "REVISION

So you can have VERSION 2.11, and REVISION 1, so "2.11 r1"

A patch is an update is a version. You can't have an update without a new version, even if the version only changes from 3.04 to 3.045, that's a new number, so a new version.

It's all the same. Why you keep trying to argue it, I don't know.

A patch can be a update, or new version of software, it could also serve as a upgrade.

From what i understand, you release a working version, and the patch further updates and inhances the program, and its version( to keep track).

But you release updates* as useualy they are new versions.

1.0 "release"
1.1b "patch"

2.0 "release, or update"

We probably wont be getting a new patch, we will be getting a new version or release.
After that, it will be patched.

So we should be from 2.11 to 2.12 patch 0
Then it will be 2.12 patch 1 so on and so forth.
Right now, our aces high is version 2.11 patch 3.


I highly doubt we will see a jump in version number from 2.11 to say 3.0
If we did, we would probably be calling aces high, ace's high 3.



oh, so right now we are at release 2 "2." update 11 ".11" patch 3 "yeah".

Hope this helps.

Karma, you're thinking "revision"

We have 2.10 revision B, not "patch" b.... just as example.

Going from 2.09 to 2.09 r1 is a patch, as is going from 2.09r1 to 2.10 (also a patch).

Now, when you go from 2.09r1 to 3.0 THAT would be a version.

Domo, the main character, is described on the English-language official website as "a strange creature that hatched from an egg.

"Domo-kun" is a friendly title often used with young males. Domo-kun's favorite food is Japanese-style meat and potato stew, and he has a strong dislike for apples, due to an unexplained mystery in his DNA.
