Well here is some info on possible problems
While it seems the chinatown doors problems has been fixed it seems a problem shows itself with this patch.
Started a new game as a malkavian and also brujah and went through as normal and found one annoying problem with the downtown quest dealing with the plague and Damsel. It seems that when you complete the first one by going to the Skyline apartments and talking to the girl on the 6th floor and then killing jezebel in the empire hotel, when you go back and report to Damsel there is no option to mention you took care of jezebel in the empire hotel. It just acts as if you never talked to her and reopens the quest, so if you go back to the skyline apartments the girl will reappear. The same goes for the guy in the sewers you have to fight after talking to the bum. I found a way around this though, by completing all of them, that is taking out jezebel in the empire hotel, then the guy in the sewers and then go and kill bishop and then go back to Strauss. I also talked to Strauss first when getting to downtown, and tried talking to him after the ship quest and museum quest to see if that had a change in the problem, well no go. This is all worked around autosaves before downtown is available and also after talking to Lacroix after the museum, as well just after the ship quest, heh a lot of back and forth stuff man I love this game even with the probs. So it seems it will happen no matter what order you take it on.
You may or may not experience these same problems but thought it was worth mentioning the workaround that worked for me. Oh another thing, this was tested on three computers with the game, one pc was updated to patch 2.0 from 1.2, one to 2.0 from 1.9 and one to 2.0 from 1.8 and they all had the glitch.
I caught something I never took notice of before until now that when you go to the beach to investigate the murder in the newspaper I noticed beckett on the rocks as I'm walking up the stairs on the beach. He is in his wolf form and runs off to the left. I never noticed this before, why well maybe it was my changing the gamma settings in options since I was tired, I never noticed him before. Pretty cool to catch something new.

I had some problem with feeding on rats with my nosferatuchick I'd been playing for a while, a bit annoying cause I was roleplaying her as humane as possibly, trying not to kill anyone and not even feeding on poor defenseless humans
But it worked when I started from the beginning again.
About Beckett, Yeah! That's always been there, first time I noticed it I started shooting at it, was a bit paranoid back then.
But that's why you say something like "Who are you and why have you been following me?" after the warehouse you know?

Yeah, my gamma setting was too low to ever take notice it cause he does kinda just look like a dark shadow. The problem with him not changing at the warehouse didn't happen at all to me until I started using the unofficial patches, have only seen him morph right probably 3 times.
Man that rat problem must be annoying since you get more blood from them and people just scream and run when you get to close.
