The shoreline bug

[hrvojej]

In the absence of proof of hotfix this is a bug.

Erm, I never said it wasn't (and downright ugly to look at too). I was merely trying to point at what caused it based on the info I gathered earlier.
Cheers,

edit: In case I wasn't clear enough: my opinion is that they tried to fix something, but broke something else in the process.

It's also great fun when you see a fleet of ships sitting on the square-shaped land.

I am pleasantly surprised to see that there are people who agree with me on this issue. I was beginning to wonder if the fanatically loyalistic, automaton-like disagreement I usually get in response to this complaint were actually a normal reaction to this sort of thing among gamers.

In general, I don't consider it to be a major bug - although it'd be nice to be fixed. But as you can see in this thread, the bug can actually show up in rather nasty forms. That's certainly something I don't want to see again.
