...and they fixed the Arachne bug, and the sound bug, and made it so that you can actually hope to win with inferno now (and of course, they hotfixed a few of the introduced bugs with 1.5.1 and plan to release 1.5.2 to take care of the others that have been added)...
I'm not saying that this list measures up to your ideal of a perfect, bug-free game. However, I've been around for the whole lifespan of HOMM VI and I think we can all agree that Limbic has released more in the last two weeks than Black Hole and Ubisoft did in the first 8 months. It's your prerogative whether to speak out against the patching process. I, on the other hand, am VERY happy because something is finally being done.
Now we just somehow need to shut down this whole U(don't)Play deal.

Um, check the bug reports thread. LOTS and lots of old bugs not fixed, plus new ones added... I admit the game works and I keep playing it, however.

Ubi_Irina has posted some info about patch 1.5.2 on Ubisoft Forums
http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php/696040-Patch-1-5-2?s=33682a334b505edb842f8a69ddc12d29
And I must say... I'm totally disappointed!
Once again we only get some minor balancing and ability fixes...
The game online/offline save synchronization which was promised to us some 3 weeks ago will be given to us as an incomplete, semi-finished function...
I see no major bug fixes like graphical or ability glitches. No AI tweaking...
Also, thanks for fixing the bugs like dialogues in Pirates... campaign two weeks after most of the players have completed it and know the whole story already... 
What the hell? From the official info that Irina gave us I presumed that there will be some major game fixing. Unfortunately, what was to be expected (because the patch naming is 1.5.2 not 1.6). Once again we'll have to wait a couple of months for something substantial...
And no, the implementation of town screens, although they were a great and big addition, is not enough to calm my emotions, because they are something which should have been in the game from the start. Stability and correct functioning of the game is what matters the most now...
On a side note. Does anyone know why the special heroes in Altar of Wishes cost so many tokens? I mean it's 1000 tokens for a heroes which don't have any unique special ability, only custom portraits and biographies. There are heroes like Acamas or Hiroshi which have unique models and are worthy of their price in my opinion. But other then that it's certainly larceny coming from the devs...

That's an 1.5 fix patch, what exactly did you expect? It was only released so as to included some fixes along with the save compatibility. The good stuff will come later, probably faster than you'd expect. And to be fair at this stage fixes are more important than balancing, much to my dismay.

"On the other hand, I can already inform you what the dev team is working on at the moment: we’ve gathered your feedback and the dev team is working on the patch 1.5.2. This patch will fix many issues you’ve reported."
From Irinas words I assumed that the patch will be something that will be a kind of supplementary for patch 1.5: things that they didn't make in time for the patches release. Instead it mostly repairs bugs which were created by Pirates... expansion and the 1.5 patch itself. If this is "only" a fix why didn't they say so in the first place... I know that my demands are big, but the game is more then half a year after it's release date and there are still so many big and obvious bugs like game crashes, save disappearances, artifacts which aren't working, creature abilities that don't function as intended or at all. You should probably know from what you see as a moderator that the level of frustration is still rising with each patch that doesn't fix some obvious bugs which were in the game from the beginning and were mentioned by players many times...

I think you missed the difference between the word PATCH and HOTFIX.. se tha magic number 1,5,2... it is not 1,6. => Is only focused on making as many things that gone bad in 1,5,1 to disapear

If it was written HOTFIX then ok. But as much as I am able to read in english it was written PATCH. And about the "magical" 1.5.2 symbol. It's not up to me on how each patch or hotfix is named, I am not a dev. By reading the name I can only assume that what they are calling a patch will probably be only a hotfix. And as the name hotfix implies things like that should be out after a couple of days not weeks...
Also I wonder why it is such a big problem for devs to fix obvious bugs. Statistical problems like wrong number of resources shown in kingdom overview or spell damage counting systems are not easy to find, but things like not working Archlich or Blazing Glory abilities are just screaming for attention...
I understand that the game had issues like developer change or low budgeting, but at the same time I'm a fan and a demanding player so I have high expectations for this game. It's like with Heroes 5. You wait for a patch for a couple of months with great expectations only to see that the buglist is shortened by 1/50...

Also Fire Elementals Cremation.
Also the very easy to fix Meditation and Spell book scroll bar bug.
...and keyboard shortcuts when defending. And dual-monitor bug with mouse cursor and scrolling. The list goes on and on.
Also, patch 1.4 fixed NO bugs (as in ZERO).
Patch 1.5 fixed 1-2 bugs, but added at least 2-3 new ones, WTF!??

Due to the fact. That they have lower advantages on hard. So they do not have the oportunity to cheat you out on higher ones.
