Rocketmen: the Patch!
May 6th, 2008 Seth Killian
Just when you thought we were going to run out of steam on the unstoppable Rocketmen steamroller, we’re back. I’m told that the new 2.01 patch has gone live with Sony America today, and so is currently live on both PSN and XBL.
The big change is to the demo, which has turned from something frankly lackluster into something actually fun. The old demo had you puttering around on training wheels in level 1. The new demo drops you into level 4 with some major buffs. We thought it was only fair, since “buff” is the way you’ll be playing through almost the entire game once you start spending your ducats to improve stats, weapons, armor, etc.
Protip: Another neat “is it a feature, or a bug we decided to leave in?” thing about the new demo is that if you play through it multiple times, you keep the stats and keep racking up money to unlock better and better gear. You can’t save it so don’t turn off the system in between attempts, but it’s a fun way to check out some advanced powerups from within the demo itself.

Yea, that should help draw attention to the game. I think that the game is slow for most people at the beginning, so they never made the purchase of the whole game. They missed out on all the fun you have as you grow increasingly more powerful… Hopefully this will draw more players in that I can pwn… I mean, uh, enjoy a friendly match with.
