MYELIN MEDIA RELEASES FOURTH PC UPDATE FOR STACKED(TM) WITH DANIEL NEGREANU
MEDIA ALERT:
New York, NY - September 29, 2006: Myelin Media, LLC, a publisher of interactive entertainment software, has released a fourth update for the PC version of STACKED with Daniel Negreanu . The patch includes code changes to improve on-line connectivity and automatically enables port forwarding to work around and through some network issues that have caused a higher than desired disconnect rate during multi-table tournaments. Players who have manually implemented port forwarding will not have to make any adjustments to what they have already done. The latest version of the patch is available at the Official Website at: http://www.mtv.com/games/holdem/stacked/setup.exe.
The latest version (v1.4) includes updates from all previous patches (v1.1, v1.2, and v1.3); and addresses the following issues:
*NEW: ONLINE CONNECTIVITY AND PORT FORWARDING: The new patch improves online connectivity and automatically enables port forwarding to work around and through some network issues during online multi-table tournaments. Players who have manually implemented port forwarding will NOT have to make any adjustments to what they have already done.
*Multi-table Tournament Points and Cash: If, after being eliminated from a MTT (both in career mode and online play), a player does not wait for the banner telling them where they finished to clear from the screen on its own, then they may not receive the points/cash that they had won during that MTT. The Patch corrects this.
*Ask Daniel Tips: A new tip will be added for players to better recognize certain situations where a bluff may be recommended.
*Online Bankroll: Under certain circumstances, bankrolls may be reset or not update correctly. The patch is designed to ensure proper saving and updating of your online bankroll.
*Hall of Fame: The game does not currently import the Hall of Fame Statistics correctly. The patch is designed to ensure that Hall of Fame statistics are properly reported in the game.
*Online Stats: Online stats may not be properly recorded or updated so your player history can become incorrect, and the patch is designed to ensure proper saving and updating of your player statistics.
*Online Connectivity: The patch, in addition to certain server adjustments, is designed to enhance the online game experience by improving connectivity and reducing the possibility of failing to connect to an MTT or of losing your connection while playing in an MTT. Note: STACKED is designed to be played via a broadband connection.
*Joining Cash Games with More than Buy-in Limit: The patch will not allow you to join a Cash game with more than the set buy-in amount and will also not allow other players who have not installed the patch to join your table with more than the table's buy-in amount.
*Saving Progress in Career Mode: The "Loss of Progress" message has been removed to avoid confusion when trying to save progress during a career MTT. You have always been able to stop playing in mid-tournament during a Career Mode MTT, but the message box incorrectly indicated that progress would be lost. The patch corrects this.
