Elite schematics not appearing/missing patch

Have yet to find a patch that has a working link to it, as far as I know the patch has been released ( http://answers.ea.com/t5/Dead-Space-2/Elite-suits-in-new-game/m-p/18268/highlight/true#M53 ) that being proof.  The link to the patch within that post is dead, if somebody could provide a working link, that would be wonderful.

    I purchased mine online, I don't know if it makes a difference.

    I found a link to the patch for you, I tried the download and it's working: http://megagames.com/patches/dead-space-2-patch-11

    I'll put a premptive reply here: If you have a message that the patch can't find activation.x86.dll, just copy the patch file in your dead space 2 directory and execute-it from there.

    MKAY, good news, after downloading it and starting a new 'new game+' the rigs showed up and for any future researchers that find this thread can download this patch (if its not dead at the time of being read) -> http://megagames.com/patches/dead-space-2-patch-11 <-

    The patch that eaursula was referring to, is the latest game patch, not, necessarily, a patch to fix the suit schematic problem. If deadspace 2 was installed via Origin, the game will auto update. If you are using the Steam version of the game, you probably, would be better to ask the question on the Steam forum.

    I read the patch amendments, and it says that it is fixing the suit problem. I think that you may have to replay the game to get the suit, though.

    just started a new 'new game+' to see if i can take a few short cuts.... would deleting/moving the original launcher and leaving the patched one do anything?

    I made a binary comparison of the files I provided vs the one you provided, and both files are exactly the same.

    You can test it by yourself via the following command: (note that I have renamed one of the files and had both files on my desktop. The file result.txt contains the comparison results):

    cd desktop

    fc /b deadspace2patch.exe deadspace2patch1.exe >> result.txt

    I also could not find the elite suits after clearing the game and playing it on new game+. The patch downloaded also does not work for a reason, it just says that the program can't start becayse activation.x86.dll is missing from my computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem. I tried reinstalling dead space 2 in origiin but it does not help at all. Please help me

    after downloading the patch, place the patch inside the dead space 2 directory and run from there...  you'll have to run the game from the patch
