Question: Is this an official patch?
Answer: Yes, it totally is. It will be part of the soon to be sold Enhanced Edition of Forsaken Gods, it's being built by the Community Patch Team, produced by our newly formed game development company Mad Vulture Games and it will be published by JoWooD.

Question: You have founded a studio for this (Mad Vulture Games) and the patch is being developed under that name?
Answer: MVG is to be looked at independantly from the Community Patch Team. The patch is still developed by the latter.

Question: But the patch will be for free?
Answer: Of course! The patch will be free for download for everyone. Additionally it will be part of any future release of the addon directly.

Question: So you are getting paid?
Answer: Yes we do! JoWooD and Mad Vulture Games have come to a mutual agreement, and we'll get our piece of the cake.

Question: Are you professionals?
Answer: Well that was a big topic in Gothic 3 times. But yes, we are a professional development team which still knows their roots to be in the Gothic community. Which is why we announce this here first.

Question: How long do you already work on the patch?
Answer: Since quite some time! The first talks have started in April so it's already more than a half year we've been working on fixes so far.

Question: That means the patch must be HUGE?
Answer: Well, apart from bugfixes, the reworked combat system from Gothic 3 1.74, new balancing, improved graphics, revised ingame models, dozens of adjustments in quests and dialogs, improvements to world design as well as stability and performance improvements there are only few adjustments.

Question: Is there going to be new content such as weapons, armors, shields, quests or so?
Answer: No, there are no plans for such things. But that's fine because now the addon may unfold its full potential.

Question: May I test the patch before it is finally released?
Answer: If you do not have any kind of problem with travelling to a remote but well guarded island in the polar sea, endure the strict safety measures and play the game in a hermetically sealed room while being flashy-thinged afterwards in order to not remember anything, then the answer would be yes. In that case please write an application to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Otherwise: No.

Question: Is there something you can show us? Screenshots? Clips? Wallpapers? Stuffed animals? Baseball caps?
Answer: There will be more material very soon. We will keep you up-to-date!

Question: When is the patch going to be release or when will the Enhanced Edition hit the shelves?
Answer: When it's done! But we are planning on a release in Q4 2010.
