As mentioned on our boards, we’ve been working hard on a patch for the PSN version of Greed Corp. The main bug on PlayStation 3 that needed fixing was the ranking server error, preventing people from playing ranked matches altogether. But we also looked into other things that could be addressed with the same patch, resulting in some other fixes and improvements.
This patch should be available NOW. Just turn on your PlayStation 3, start Greed Corp and it will automatically ask you if you want to update to a newer version. If it appears like the patch is not yet available in your region, please allow for some time and try again later today. We have confirmation that the patch has gone live both in Europe and America and we just updated our own European version of the game.
If you ran into the ranking server error, you should now be able to find and play ranked matches again with previously locked up accounts. Your progress, like matches played and skill points, should remain intact and you can continue from there. If you did not experience this error, there are still some things in the patch that you might find useful.
Here’s a short overview of the most useful changes made by the patch:
The number of ratings for Greed Corp on the Xbox.com Marketplace has passed 1000! That means the XBLA/Twitter competition is now closed and that we have selected a winner.
Congratulations to Ian Lucier (@CrazyBagMan) for winning the 40-page Mistbound artbook! We will soon contact you via Direct Message to ask for your location details, so we can get the artbook shipped to you as quickly as possible.
The artbook contains exclusive artwork for Mistbound, Greed Corp and our next game. The foreword is written by our creative director and the book features the original six drawings that served as the beginning of Mistbound.
For all the people that tweeted in the competition and others that enjoy our artwork, we’re doing an update to the artwork published on this site and on Facebook. But of course some images will remain exclusive to the artbook…
The coverage on Greed Corp around the internet has been overwhelming. It’s way too much to post all of it here, but there are some articles we do want to share with you. Our thanks go out to everyone taking the time to write and talk about Greed Corp, even if you’re not mentioned here.
Episode 38 of SignedIn, an Xbox 360 podcast, features a nice section on Greed Corp. We all really enjoyed listening to it. The item starts around 32 minutes and lasts until around 44. That’s 12 minutes of very useful in-depth information and funny stories.
So make sure you have some audio output and check out the episode here.
Lydia Sung from NeoSeeker awards Greed Corp with a 9 out of 10 and slaps a Recommended label onto it.
“Priced at $10 for consoles (PC version coming soon), Greed Corp is easily one of the best titles found on Xbox LIVE Arcade.” – Lydia Sung, NeoSeeker
The full review can be found over on the NeoSeeker website.
Another cool review, ending in a 8.6 (or actually 4.3 out of 5), was written by Jonathan Marx from CheatCodeCentral.
“Digging into the game a bit further, it becomes apparent that the game’s simplicity and lightning pacing complement the strategic options that are there in such a way that it ends up being one of the most enjoyable strategy titles I’ve played in a while.” – Jonathan Marx, CheatCodeCentral
