“I and many of the team are avidly reading posts on this and other forums. So, I wanted to answer some of the points which have been raised recently and to clarify some information in the earlier post regarding the PC patch.

PC Patch 1.1:

-The PC fix we have made DOES allow you to continue with your previous saved game if you were one of the people who were unfortunate enough to hit the Brewery Missing Wheel Spoke progress issue.

-The Uninstall issue ONLY affects the directory to which you installed the game (i.e. Overlord.exe). If you installed the game to the default directory, or changed it to a new / empty directory then you will not notice any difference

Xbox 360 Update:

-I made the decision to release the PC Patch – including the Brewery progress issue – as quickly as possible as I wanted to ensure we helped as many players as possible as quickly as possible. Exactly this same thinking applies to the Xbox 360, although the challenges for us implementing, testing and releasing any fix are different.

-We are *actively* working on investigating & resolving issues that people have reported on the Xbox 360

-The challenges on the Xbox 360 are very different to PC, meaning that fixes can be more time consuming to make, take more time to test, and more time to make available to you

-I can’t give you a release date, but can assure you we’re aiming to get a comprehensive update out as soon as possible. I should have more information at the end of next week.

-We are hoping that our fix to the Brewery Spoke will mean you can continue playing from that save

Progress Issues:

-We are aware of one, and only one, potential progress issue within the game – the Brewery missing wheel spoke.

-The brewery progress issue will *only* affect you if you fix the wheel and then leave the level without turning it. Our data suggests this does not affect / has not affected the majority of players – and we of course wish it had affected no-one.

-We have had reports of minor issues elsewhere in the game, however none of these prevent progression.

-The best place to ensure that these issues reach us is to email / otherwise contact customer services.

Thanks for taking the time to read this. I hope it answers some of your questions, and alleviates any concern that we might leave you “out to dry”. We’re really proud of Overlord, and hope you’ll continue to enjoy playing it
