Castle Crashers Patch Headed Your Way

Considering I haven't played this yet and therefore am not burned out, I'll probably pick it up now.

better late than never i suppose

Nice, I have been waiting months for this update to come out. I didn't want to end up like Jeff and not only lose my game save but also my desire to play it (aka wash $15 down the drain).

wasn't this released in the summer? 

Jeff Gerstmann made this thread, of Jeff and baby Jeff fame.

Good stuff. Castle Crashers is awesome.

"wasn't this released in the summer? 

a little bit late for a patch if you ask me, but with an small time studio like the behemoth is guess it's acceptable.

"

Don't care if others had problems this is the best arcade game of the year.

A little on the slow side.

Maybe they just kept the game broken on purpose and are issuing out the patch as a Christmas present in an attempt at world domination!

wow, it only took them four fucking months. this could have made it on a lot of peoples Downloadable GOTY lists if the online worked right. 

FINALLY!

YAY!

But is it too late?

Maybe I'll actually buy this game now.

I wouldnt buy it for a few days, just to see if Microsoft will try to push it under any deal.

ofc they probably wont.

bout time. I wasn't even moving my hard drive or doing anything out of the ordinary and it randomly deleted all my gear/pets every time i stopped playing. might get back into it now...pissed me off though.

I was wondering if other people had this issue as well...

Sweet. Just as I waited till Alien Hominid XBLA got fixed before ponying up for it, I guess I'll be buying Castle Crashers now. Better late than never, indeed.

i just beat it yesterday without any problems...

Is it fixed?? Anybody know yet??

Bring it to STEAM!

I can confirm that you can still remove the patch the old way (hard drive "maintenance"), and still powerlevel with the boomerang.  Just ran a new thief character from level 1 to level 21 in about 20 minutes :D

Just in time for me to get my 360, FINALLY!  I know, I'm lame.

Castle CRashers is one of those games that I never had a chance to play. Maybe now I'll finally check it out.

Maybe I should get this game now; actually, I will.

always was interested but the problems scared me away so i will probably pick it up now

nice

This will definitely get me out to play it again ;D

That's great! I just bought this game last night! I haven't noticed the bugs, but I know of them. It's pretty tough game alone too. ;__;

Me and my friends actually just had a marathon session of Castle Crashers. I was just like 'why not try this game instead of playing COD or something' and they all loved it so much that we were up until 5 in the morning beating the game. Now they are all going to buy it and coop will work fine hopefully!

I TOTALLY CALLED THIS LAST NIGHT!! I AM EPIC!!

I got this game shortly after it was released but after hearing about the save file problem, and then experiencing it, I decided to wait for the update.  Months went by and I forgot about it while playing other games. I guess I can finally play this game, been looking forward to it for too long now.

Its not just between systems.  It erases the data on the same system too.

I was about level 30 when my Elite got RROD.  I sent it into MS and they fixed it and send the same console back.  Serial numbers match but MS updates the Console ID which means you need to download your XBLA games again.

Well it also means if you played Castle Crashers you lost all your progress.  I wasnt too happy to find this out and instead of replaying to get my progress back I said screw it and I just wont play anymore.  Which means any future paid DLC I would have bought will also now be ignored. 

How could something so basic be broken and how could it take months to patch it?

I said I woulnd't play it until a patch came out and then a couple days ago, I get a message on my Xbox from Dan Paladin telling me there finally is a patch; just in time for CHRISTMAS! So I've finally gotten the game and it is magical. The music is love-worthy and the graphics are sublime. Get it if you haven't already and also buy BRAID. This and Braid are on top of the Arcade games list.

I got really excited to play with my friends when we first got it. The coop was always broken so we were really happy to hear about the patch. Then we used it and the coop is still broken. Guess it didn't work too well. We eventually got to play together by connecting to someone else's server and inviting eachother. Sadly, we had a good half second of lag between button presses. (if not a full second at times) Guess we're gonna have to wait until Title Update 2.

About time. Why did it take microsoft so long to approve the patch?

Did the patch ever come out?

yeh it did.

I gave it a quick whirl, seems fixed.

I havent extensively tested it tho.

I should get this

No problems for me. Guess Im fortunate

The Behemoth really takes its time with patches... *cough* Alien Hominid *cough*

Necroposting ftw?

" @Jeff: i need help, does the patch recover your memory or just fixes the bug, plz help! "

This reminded me I need to buy Castle Crashers.

I like how he created an account to ask this question, but yeah dude if you have lost your save you will probably have to start again.
