[edit] Fate or FATE
I've just noticed that WildTangent seem to call this game "FATE", whereas we're calling it "Fate". We probably should either
- WP:MOVE the article to "FATE (computer game)", or
- Change the first sentence to "Fate (also written as FATE) is a ..." and create FATE (computer game) as a redirect to Fate (computer game).
I prefer #2. Does anyone object (or have a better idea)? —Chris Chittleborough 15:02, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
- Actually since there is nothing else called FATE in all caps, we could move the article there: FATE and change references appropriately. -- MisterHand 17:50, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
OK, I've edited the article and created FATE (computer game) and FATE as redirects to the article. Cheers, CWC(talk) 07:54, 9 May 2006 (UTC) No such luck, I'm afraid. Anybody familiar with FATE (role-playing game)? I think a disambiguation page is in order. Octavo 04:54, 26 May 2006 (UTC) (Oops, forgot to log in!) I went ahead and redirected FATE to Fate (Disambiguation) - not necessarily ideal, but a workable temporary solution at least. Octavo 05:15, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Virus?

- This game comes with a Trojan, that is impossible to get rid of without removing the game and the Trojan with anti-virus programs.
under the heading "Virus". (This was the first anon edit from that IP address.) I don't think Wikipedia should make allegations like this without any evidence, so I deleted it. (If there's any truth to the claim, I'm one of the victims. Gulp?) Cheers, CWC(talk) 17:27, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

- FYI, the Wild Tangent article has a section discussing their WildTangent Web Driver, WildTangent Multiplayer Library, WildTangent Updater and WildTangent GameChannel bundle of programs. Per the article, "WildTangent asserts that the software bundle is safe, but many anti-spyware programs classify it as adware/spyware, mainly because it reports activity and games played to various servers. Some experts feel that WildTangent's software is safe, but consider to be foistware as in many cases it is installed without the user's knowledge or express consent. It doesn't spy or deliver advertising, but is generally unwanted. (citation needed)"

- Therefore that bundle is probably what the initial poster is referring to. I should mention that I have Fate installed on my machine, but my spyware program has never registered any of those programs or anything else involving Fate as being adware/spyware. So I can't personally vouch for the veracity of the report. Dugwiki 18:37, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Version Listed
Ideally the version listed on this wiki entry should link to a page on the official site with the current version number, if such a page exists.
