Sort of... there was before the game was released. I do not know the details, but I do know that they gave the go ahead to post the Version history files for beta Version. Nothing wrong with that.

Considering that Shrapnel staff will sometimes post beta patch lists..no point.

Posting these updates has been a long standing tradition of this forum. A most enjoyed, and welcome tradition at that.

If the patch is not finalized yet, I have a couple of requests:

1) Make it so that ships can ram fighters and satellites in strategic combat, as they can in tactical.

2) Fix the bug in the simulator that gives a stack of fighters only the amount of supplies that a single fighter has.

I agree. Nothing wrong whatsoever. Another reason for me to love MM.

And a fine tradition it is! Keep it up!

I ask because many of the companies I buy games from, such as Paradox (I have Europa Universalis 2, Hearts of Iron, and soon Victoria), require their betatesters to sign NDAs which prohibit them from discussing the details of a patch until it is about to be released.

personally, i'd rather have it transport to the planet with the lowest pop and the highest maximum pop.

Beta testers had to sign NDAs. But, they were (partially?) released from them at some point.
