Tides of War

I've just got the title, and I'm a little confused about the number of patches available for the UK release.

Do I only install the latest patch (i.e. Does it contain all the previous patches),

.... or do I need to install all of them (3 I think I've seen).

All 3 I'm afraid. From memory, the first is abourt 110MB, the 2nd 55MB and the final one around 6MB. Unfortunately the third one seems to introduce almost as many issues as it fixes - however they are mostly cosmetic. The big functional changes are in the first 2 patches anyway.

Thanks Bux,

Downloaded them and installed 'em last night.

I must say that over the years I've always thought using voice comms for games was a bit silly, I mean sat at your computer talking to yourself?

However, last night whilst trying it out, I really enjoyed doing it. It does add to this type of game. I like what I've seen so far of this game, although I don't like the fact that missions have time limits on them. I've always hated any game that puts you under those restrictions and pressures.

I don't suppose that there are any mods out there that can remove the time limits from campaign missions?

'Fraid not. I too prefer tactics to beating the clock. However if you go to the Patrols, select Tactical and try that - its not a campaign mission, its just a free format sail until you're sunk, out of fuel/ammo (note you can resupply from tankers, merchants & oilers) or there are no enemy left!

Thanks for the reply Bux.
