Dark Age of Camelot Releases Old Expansion as Patch

Posted by Zonk on Monday December 6, 2004 @04:25AM from the kindness-and-generosity-of-the-nobility dept.

Popular MMOG Dark Age of Camelot has had several expansions since its launch, and recently the Shrouded Isles expansion was released to the playerbase as a patch to the game. This essentially ensures that anyone who purchases even the base game is upgraded to the better graphics engine of the Shrouded Isles expansion. The patch is downloadable from FileFront and ValueCommerce. Another notch in the trend of Massive games trying to emphasize free content additions as a selling point.

That was the original plan, but they have since said that ALL of SI would be free, not just the engine.

Guess they figured it is too much trouble to bother seperating it.
