Per the Sega Community Manager on the Sega forums:
Quote:
I've just received a mail this AM regarding patches for the console versions of AVP and I regret to inform everyone that these have sadly been scrapped.
I had previously made a claim that these were coming and at the time, this was very much on the table. For the console community, I apologize, as I know there are many features and updates that you'd like to see. I'll keep fighting internally for this to happen, but until I hear otherwise, there will not be a console patch for either Xbox or PS3.
EDIT:: Clumsyorchid [Sega's Community Manager] has responded to the outrage and has suggested this idea to let our voices be heard:

I feel for you all in this, I do, so let's turn it into something productive! Gather the AVP community, post in this thread if this frustrates you, or create threads in AVP fan forums to show support - let's show them how important and how vocal we all are.
I'm your conduit into the higher ups here at Sega, so give me ammunition to fire back!
Wow, that really sucks. Not cool. And I don't know if the suggestion he made will work if they have already decided to discontinue support. Why would they listen to complaints about this but not about the countless complaints over the past couple of months in the game in general?
i cant believe they cut support to our largest community. WTF NEXT?! notice they didnt say anything about PC. How long will they continue support for us? the prospect for mod tools is looking pretty grim.......better fire up the old AvP:Gold 2.0 project me thinks :P

that's a shocker imo, since the console avp community is larger isnt it? Maybe some of those fans will come to PC now.
I doubt it, they already wasted $50 for a game that is no longer going to get the support it needs. Who knows if the PC community will be hit next, if I were them, I wouldn't waste another $50 for another platform that is in trouble already.
PISSED!!!! who the fuck do these people think they are fucking with?!?! no offense but it's always the highly royal -pain-in-the-ass PC elitists who laugh at us becuase of dick moves on the parts of game devs and publishers for shit like this!! I WANT MY FUCKING PATCH!!! MAKE THE GAME BETTER FOR ALL OR STOP MAKING GAMES ASSHOLES!!!
