Ns 1.1 Progress Report

Plasma · April 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">Please?</div> Hey,

Can we get some sort of progress report, its been 3 weeks since the last update <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'>

How is testing going? How far away is the release of 1.1? Are you ahead/behind schedule etc?

Thanks <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

Theory 11c of my theory book suggests the longer it takes to come out the more fantabulous it will be...

Note: i dont have a theory book for you post'ers who dont recognise a joke (albeit an unfunny one)

RyoOhki · April 2003

The second rule of patch 1.1 is: No-one talks about 1.1

Although I would like to see a progress report, I won't hold my breath waiting.

By your theory, Duke Nukem Forever will be the best game ever made and will end world hunger, will stop all wars, everyone will love each other and it will cure cancer.

Duke Nukem Forever == Vapourware... NS 1.1 == real. GG.

Kaniran · April 2003

The 1.1 patch is exactly on schedule. It will be done the moment it is done, and it will be released not one second before it is released. That's about all you have to know, be glad there even where progress reports, don't ask for more. This game IS free, and beggars can't be choosers so the saying goes.

Heh so a development rate of over 5 years for Half Life 2 would equal to what? The ultimate game which will cause all players to love and worship and promise to never play another game again. i.e. The Mother of All Games. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

Our elite spies hiding in Flayra's closet reliably inform us that coding has occured since the last update.

You can't get in for a number of security reasons, downloads are off, so you can't get the client or maps and most of all...

IT DISRUPTS THE MONITORING OF PERFORMANCE SO YOU ARE ACTIVELY HINDERING THE DEVELOPMENT OF 1.1.

I think you can hardly blame people for being excited about the next release and wanting to know how things are going.

While the game is free, I believe a substantial number of people are no longer actively playing but are waiting for the next release before taking up NS again. You _do_ want people to continue to play NS right <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'> ?

Check www.readyroom.org sometimes too, Monse is always good at updating <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'> .

Flayra · April 2003

We're working like mad on it and have just opened started playtesting with the Veterans last night. We now have three playtest servers that will be used 24/7 while we find and fix bugs and balance issues and refine the gameplay. It will be a couple of weeks of testing, then we'll release.

Hopefully this period of intense scrutiny will make NS 1.1 the most balanced, fun, and bug-free NS yet!

MongooseBob · April 2003

Thanks for the update Flayra, It makes the waiting easier!

Good work so far, I'm glad you're concerned about a quality product and I know everyone else here appreciates it also, even if they do get impatient sometimes.

yes yes balance and all that good stuff, but what about new stuff.. :X aliens getting all these changes and all i see way of marines is like elec tf? (and comander ups) regardless if its balanced DasElitest will like.

Zel · April 2003

yeah the server i play on 5 hours every day wont let me in anymore cuz its a 1.1 Playtester. sheesh!

Dragons_Revenge · April 2003

Actually to maybe clarify it a litte about free Ns-since NS is a Half-life Mod, they can't charge money for it. I am not sure of all the legal reasons of course, but any Mod of any game. Whether it is Halflife mod, Dungeon Seige mod, or any other 'mod-able' game, can't charge to play it. I think it might have to do with some 'rights' that the oringinal programmers have or something.

Woot3h. Thumbs up for the devs!

(ps. if Flay's member no. 3 on the board, whos 1 and 2?)

Thanks Flayra <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

It was hardly begging for an update, just a request, I had not seen a post like it so I thought I may ask...

Sounds good, even though its hard waiting it will be worth it <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

PS: Maybe rename the server title to not include 1.1 in the list so people dont believe otherwise? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>
