Does the 45 day patch exist?

I was reading a thread earlier that said the proposed 45 day patch was nothing but what a fan said, and that the devs/gm/mods themselves hadnt ever actually said there WOULD be one. Can anyone provide links for it, or was it really a dream?

    You should read the official news on the front page...i don't think it can get any more confirmed than that ;)

    ..."You'll be able to check out a brand new Borg-themed encounter"...

    Is it me or does that just sound like more of the same with a different coat of paint? <sigh>

    While "over the next two months" would encompass the 45 day timeframe, im wondering if there was ever mention of the 45 day patch that everyone is hoping is going to save the game?

    Look up jupiter broadcasting, then look up STOked game launch special, there is a interview is the lead producer that talks about the 45 day patch.

    the Dev that posted the thread talking about the link I mentioned up above said 45 days in his post, I was looking for it but couldn't find it...i'll throw a link here if I find it.

    I don't think the words "45 days" were said by the Devs no. To show that, next Thursday is the first Raid-i-sode, has it been 45 days already?

    all the official responses that I have seen have said "Coming soon" or "Within a few months". I think the 45 day patch is fan wishes and nothing cryptic said.

    I don't want to speak for Cryptic, and I don't have the link, but I do remember the dev post

    and it was something along the lines of "we will be releasing some klingon pve content and our target is 45 days after launch" .. that does not quanitfy a 'commitment' to that date but rather a ballpark figure of when they expected it to be ready

    likely it will go in the first available thursday night after is clears QA since the marketing is already done.

    Yeah, I know. Sometimes it gets hard.

    Something truly 'new' and/or 'original'.

    Don't get me wrong. I don't expect them to reinvent the wheel or do anything that requires a major overhaul to gameplay but there have been plenty of complaints about how STO isn't really very Star Trek in theme for them to start thinking outside the box a little on their missions.

    Hopefully, Cryptic is being smart and taking some of the millions of dollars they have made already and spending it to higher more people immediately to get more content in the game. The current team should be polishing the game mechanics while a bunch of fresh minds add content.

    See this is what Im worrying about cause when we hit 45 days an theres no patch TRIBBLE's gonna hit the air circulation device on the forums if everyone thinks there will be a patch but there isnt because there never WAS intent for one and it was all just rumor.

    ...and im trying to watch that video, I just got past the part where he asked if there was anything he could tell us about the 45 day content and the other guy said no then proceeded to say "a lot of stuff" essentially. Youtube is being stupid for me atm

    Well regardless theres the answer dfor the guy in the other thread that was asking if anyone official had talked about it, and that was the point of making this thread. Now to find THAT thread and link this one to it lol
