    Heh, every time I read something like that it reminds me of those teams that have NO idea what they are doing and/or when. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Ah, well; not that I'm waiting any new, "revolutionary" changes. Final v3 has been coming for years now so people should just forget buggering about it.

    Yeah, hence why it has a new oraface in marine start, that frankly, looks like ******.

    ...oh, and to answer Saltzbad's comment: Yes, both Veil and Eclipse's last RCs were done but not sent. Where I got this information is top sekrat, just remember: My sources are few, my sources are unreliable, and generally send **** porn. But when they really do send useful things, they tend to be true.

    Thank you.

    I don't see it as them raping bast, I see it as life saving surgery that now needs follow-up reconstructive surgery to give it a useful and long life. Hopefully eclipse and veil will continue to grow into not only the most commonly played competitive maps as they are now, but the most balanced as well.

    The question was rhetorical Quaunaut. Theres an overabundance of post-release information "leakage" - mostly because its not even secret anymore, mister superspy.

    Latest thing I heard ben complaining about on veil was that he changed one tiny thing and ran out of map resources, and thus couldn't compile. These maps are running right on the knife edge of what the half life engine can support and there's very little wiggle room. So, while MrBen is still a nub mapper, at least he's a nub mapper with a good excuse. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
