Thief Patch Addresses A.I. Bug

Ion Storm has released a patch to fix the much-publicized bug for Thief: Deadly Shadows.

In response to angry hardcore fans, Ion Storm has quickly released a patch for Thief: Deadly Shadows for the PC. The A.I. bug caused the game to revert from Expert to Normal mode when loading a save game or returning to a previous section of a level.

Eidos has recommended that users who have edited their .ini files to uninstall and reinstall the game before adding the patch. Compatible with previously saved games, players restarting a mission from a loaded save game need to reselect the difficulty for that mission.

Unfortunately, no word on a fix for the Xbox version has been announced. Although updating the game through Xbox Live is plausible, Microsoft has no policy to permit the patching of non-online components of games--spawning speculation that nothing short of a recall can address the issue.
