System Shock - First Patch

Patch 1.0? Had they released the game in a beta version by mistake? 
Odd that they would number the patch that way. It made me curious enough to start it up just to see if there was a version number in-game. There is. It's 1.1.17082 which is also pretty odd.Patch 1.0? Had they released the game in a beta version by mistake?
L-L-Look at you, ha-ckers!! Shodan has her own ways, insects!!
I've struck quite a few of those bugs, so good stuff - though a little surprised that it was released with some of them after all this time in development. The rag-doll effect when first entering an area shocked me into thinking creatures had re-spawned several times until I got used to it, and it happened every time. It's not like it was a bug that wasn't glaringly obvious.
Alas, the thing that annoys me most wasn't fixed - cloud saves. I go between machines and environments on a daily basis and make great use of cloud saves.
Still, it's a good game. Enjoying it a lot.
