True, but this is the first time they've had the ability to patch things
after the sale of the game, which they've already done at least once.
There are a few bugs I wish they'd fix (like invisible people at that cafe
on the second island) but they might also take it in their heads to fix
other stuff that I'd like to see kept as well, like the car cannon.
Bethesda put out patches for Oblivion after release, in the process killing
a few bugs that might have been fun (I came along after they were done with
releasing patches, so I never got to try them.) There's just no telling
what the developers will decide to do...

true. I have a small feeling they might be aware of this one though,
and if they see messages with people having fun and no damage being
done I doubt they'll close it.

I was wondering if i was going to get my rollover achievement from playing
around with the Swingset of Doom, and i finally did last night ! Thank god.
I wasn't having any luck at the airport. In the same flight i got closer to
my goal, bouncing off the warehouse across from Brucie's. Another 10ft of
height and i would have cleared it !
