People are bound to lose interest sooner or later since there aren't any official news anymore.
I've been checking these forums pretty regularly for a good while now and I think I would have remembered if someone had posted something here.
Although the patch itself did get mentioned a few times more recently, on other discussions. Mainly "A Change of Ownership" and "Goodbye Volition".

At this point after I heard about the nonsense that You Know Who had done, I lost interest in the patch as well. I don't blame you if you forgot you had the email for this forum post on, I forgot I had them on as well.

I'm just sure patch is dead, it will never release and it will never release for good

That's just the truth

Damn, this is so bleak. I wonder if there was a way the patch could be cracked by someone else like how gentlemen of the row came about.

 

[L'Andromada]

Well if you don't have any expectations you won't be disappointed, sure. On the other hand I still think one should never say never. Who knows what might happen?

Volition confirmed they found source code of SR2 and will fix the game!

All the new info from the stream:
- Steam release of the game is getting a fix
- This will incude bug fixes, multiplayer fix (will now use Steam instead of Gamespy) and DLCs
- All stuff included will be for free
- It will improve draw distance and audio quality
- The update still doesn’t have a confirmed release date. Possibilty of an Open Beta
- It’s being worked on by a single person, Minimaul as a contractor for Volition
- No confirms of any remasters, considering Deep Silver would have to outsource it for it to happen
- New save file format, it isn't suppose to affect current one
- The new version will be a separate game on Steam so the old version remains untouched
- Better game performance, especially on lower end machines, and no more speed-up bug or stuttering cutscenes
- IdolNinja is remaking the Gentlemen of the Row mod for the new version

The Juiced Patch is the probably the closest we'll ever get to a proper fix... though never get the DLC ported over.
