Well guess what?!
It took me nearly 3 days to download the patch that was finaly released.
Download speed from their servers is at about 20-30% on my Broadband's capacity. Getting constant errors downloading it. And the size was rediculous. The "normal" version of the patch is around 400 MB and this one is like 3.5 GB....
Whatever.
I finally had the patch downloaded and ... brace yourselves ...

Nice innit?!!
Honestly....
How hard is it to do at lesat 1 thing right?
I guess very.
So... ALTHOUGH I haven't installed any previous patches, ALTHOUGH the game was INSTALLEd on my computer and ALTHOUGH I have NEVER used any cracked exe or anything of that matter I decided to make anew install just to be entirely sure the problem wasn't me...
So I unitstalled the game, installed a fresh copy from scratch and guess what?!!

Speachless...
So here I go again sending YET another email to their support team asking them WTF is going on.
That's their reply ("copy" + "paste" from my mailbox)
"We are really sorry but thanks to the information provided our packaging team has discovered that this patch only applies to the German version of the game.
They are now working on it in order to adapt it to the UK master, and we will get back to you as soon as the project will be completed.
It could take more than 1 day though.
Please excuse us for this inconvenience and thanks for your patience and understanding.
Best Regards,
