<div class="IPBDescription">Get well soon Max!</div>Now I know that if ever there was a target for 'fanboi' accusation flame, I'm it. I've hung it around my neck with a youtube channel and painted a big bullseye in the middle. This post is going to attract that flame. But I think there are a few people on this forum who might agree with this, and those are the people I'm writing for.
We all know that the difference between 155 and 156 is night and day, and that the insane hours put in by the UWE team are what made that difference happen. Those insane hours have no doubt taken their toll on all of them, personally. These guys have girlfriends, health, and morale that have all suffered a rollercoaster over the past week.
So, the point of this post is to say thankyou, well done, you should feel very proud of what you've done. Many small businesses would have buckled under the pressure you have flourished under. I hope you all get a solid rest.
We will all still be here when you get back, playing 156.

156 is definitely a step in the right direction. But client performance still isn't anywhere near where it needs to be, and we've got a ways to go until rest-time comes.
My only concern, is that we don't have an NS2 1.1 fiasco turning it into NS2 2.0 or someforth.
Also, the maps need to be bigger, back to NS1 levels :|
So some time off is really deserved :) if there was a donation page, i would buy all UWE members a beer. but there is none.. so you have to buy it yourself :P
Happy holidays guys, you deserved it!
My biggest concern apart from lagging to much for fade godness was alien hive eggs spawning in places that gets you stuck... 4 times in a row.
When you get back, please add some check on the spawning eggs =)
+1 spawning in walls
See ya in two weeks :)
I was a bit worried about our beloved NS2 when I first played with the pre-alpha and alpha releases.
Each time thinking "This... is not going so well". And each time I saw a Tweet that said "release of X in Y hours", only for the prediction to be off by days, I got a little more worried that the team were in over their heads.
Thankfully the UWE team conquered came through for us (as well as themselves) and the future of NS2 is looking pretty damn good.
Enjoy your break guys.
Well, get some rest guys. There is a lot of work to be done, so it's best to take a break now rather than run yourselves further ragged. Good work on the patch!
