Awhile back we reportedon a Lionhead blog update that directly stated a fix was coming to theFable 2pub gameFortune’s Tower. A week ago, Peter Molyneux seemingly knicked a fix when he stated that the glitch inFortune’s Towerwason purposeand players would be “in for a surprise” for their nefarious money grabbing. Apparently the developers at Lionhead didn’t get Molyneux’s memo. As of yesterday, the glitch has been patched.
1UP(viaX3F) is reporting that the patch also wiped the leaderboards forFortune’s Towerto eliminate those who cheated to gather gold in the game from the listings. Of course, this turn of events raises the question, “Why the ‘surprise,’ Mr. Molyneux?”
Thankfully, I’ve already put in enough time with the glitch to buy a small city. Yet, I’m left to wonder what my repercussion is, and furthermore, why the game was fixed to begin with. Is this some great Lionhead conspiracy to separate the good and the bad seeds? It’s obvious that Molyneux is a brilliant guy who really gets into what he creates, but this sort of maneuvering just doesn’t make sense to me. Why do you think Lionhead went ahead and fixed this supposedly intended glitch?
