It appears Linden Lab are keeping to their promise of “rapid iterations” for Patterns, as an update will be released on Thursday 18th October, two weeks after the initial Genesis Release launch.
The e-mail announcing the update reads in full:
Hello Patterns Customer,
Our first update is right around the corner. We’re going to be updating to a bigger world, adding more shapes to find in the world and – based on your feedback – we’re adding the ability to place formations on your own creations as well as ours. We’re also fixing plenty of bugs.
Our plan is to update on Thursday October 18 on Steam. We’ll keep you posted on our progress.
Thanks for all the great feedback and thanks again for being an early adopter of Patterns!
I’ll be looking forward to the update; things have been a trifle dull in Patterns land of late, as I’ve run out of shapes I can think of to build.
Hmmm… I feel a review update coming on as well – you have been warned! :).

It’s certainly enjoyable. I’m entertaining an idea for demolishing the bridge on the “back 40” now, but will try to wait until the upgrade in case I need that bridge

I’ve been experimenting with home-built shapes for bridges and stairs, using the various materials – seeing where the stresses start and whether crossing a creaking structure in jumps rather than “walking” adds to the stress and brings it down…
How were the dozen ukuleles last night? I read your tweet and immediately thought of this as a great demonstration of mass ukelele playing (seven in this case) – enjoy! 🙂
