    Another change to what? Ogre mages?

    Edit: Is the crash after defeating Sarevok fixed? I think it's been reported since soon after this launched and it's a pretty damn annoying having the game crash at that point.

    They forgot: Added OSX-support!

    Ooh, another secret! An NPC? Awesome item? New quest? Looking forward to reading someone else having figured it out so I don't need to spend the time doing so and can just get the goodies! :D :P

    Wait what a secret NPC? I didn't have time to play in the last couple of weeks unfortunately. There is a new secret NPC besides the 3 added ones?

    There's a secret of some kind. No one has yet figured it out. Might be an NPC, could be anything though!

    It is a Character from the Black Pits. Do a search for him/her here in the forum :)

    Another one? That was the secret from the last patch, if you mean who I think you do.

    One of these days you have to update the famous "400 fixes"...

    The 2013 patch had a secret NPC char. I was just answering the question of a user.
    What the hidden extra in 2014 is, I don't know yet.

    I can't believe you managed to fix the bats issue before I even reported it.

    Hands up which overhaul team member is an illithid?

    Exactly, which is why we're speculating on the NEW secret. Why would we be wondering what the old one was? This new one could also be an NPC.
    I'm quickly losing track of all these secrets. I think we need to assign them all codenames.

    That's funny because I completed BGEE just 5 minutes ago :) And here is the new patch released just a few moments ago.

    Did all quests possible and travelled all areas and didn't find many bugs. I soloed FMT with experience cap raised (with a mod).

    I'm tempted now to play a thief or ranger with a party :)

    Is there already any approximate date for the release of BG2EE?

    Nothing official yet, but my guess is: When you least expect it.

    The Steam version still shows 2012. Does anyone know when the 2014 version will be coming to Steam?
  • smeagolheartsmeagolheart Member Posts: 7,963
    what is the extra 'it' you speak of?
  • psyactpsyact Member Posts: 81
    Still downloading the patch, but I hope "improved scroll wheel functionality" means that you will scroll whichever menu your cursor is hovering over in a shop. It's the biggest UI failure in the entire game, IMO.
