    Great idea, whenever you want to check about the next patch you can load up the progress page instead of making a new thread every week.

    Thread is apparently Flayra approved.
    I'm not sure if we are to add changes we want to see on the technical part, or simply comment on the gameplay-notes?
    For on the...

    I can say it works just as bad for chat as well. E.g I couldn't write "?" or even periods since they weren't on the same place on my keyboard. Made me feel a lot dumber writing stuff in the chat since it looked like I couldn't type properly at all, so I'd like for that to be looked into at some point.

    Bad ass, I was goin to ask about something like this, but it turned out even better then I was hoping for. I thought maybe a weekly update on the progress but real time is by far better.

    It's too bad mmo's don't do this already. Sure there's patch notes, but it's easier to complain on the forums when you know exactly what's being worked on at any time! Awesome that UW is doing it though.

    The progression is this:
    Started - currently being worked on
    Delivered - finished, but not tested
    Accepted - tested

    Devs, I have a request... Since you delivery a lot more than we expect (and spoil us so much), can I have an ice-cream with that? Vanilla if possible :D

    What does the Next Release bar mean? Is everything above it going to be pushed next release, or everything below it? I'm assuming below, since there are much fewer items below the bar and many more above.

    Probably above, considering nothing below the bar has even been started yet. UW won't be releasing small patches. At least for now.

    Think of it as a timeline going down. Once everything gets done, then release 151 comes out. In this case, they already have some work planned for after release 151 on the technical side but have not laid out the plan for gameplay fixes/changes after 151.

    Ah OK I get it now. Once everything above the bar is at "accepted" status, then the release is pushed. Neat! Very awesome progress UWE; I look forward to checking this daily! :D

    A great feature for the stakeholders! A big thanks for this, other agile studios should really take a look into this and learn how to take care of your customer base.

    Pretty nice feature.

    You might of left us wanting more in the past, but good to see you are really delivering now.

    Also, nice to see marines can build again.
  • perfectheatperfectheat Join Date: 2007-06-28 Member: 61405Members
    Great stuff guys! I REALLY recommend adding what Max and Comprox commented on to the post though! Just to make it clearer and have less questions asked.

    Cheers.

    I like this, very efficient way for us to keep up with development without spamming the crap out of the forums. Also it looks like we're due for another patch fairly soon can't wait. ;)


    Anyway we can maybe make this a sticky? and as always keep up the great work guys.

    SWEET! Now all we need is live video feed from the studio but don't let max know....we want to see him freestyle to the big hair bands! Dance like no ones in the room, now that would be entertaining.
