Its been awhile since we've had an update from KK. Are the staff still ravaged by illness or what???
You aimed for the test server to be open mid october and you missed. But its not like you missed by a little, your going to miss by a mile.
As far as i can tell from the little information we have been given the test server probably wont be opening till we have given initial feedback on each of the topics mentioned in this (http://forum.neocron.com/showthread.php?t=135609) thread. These being:
- Hacknet Combat and Hacknet NPCs
- APU Combat and PPU Support
- Effect of combat skills on weapon behavior
So given the fact that the Vehicle discussion topic has been open for 23 days, and that the remaining topics are going to be very important to the overall balancing of the game, thus they will probably run longer than the vehicle topic.
Does that mean we are looking at atleast 69 more days for discussions, taking us to mid Janurary of the new year, with a possible realistic date for the test server being mid February?
Also lest we forget what happened last year at christmas time for KK in terms of productivity and general operations.
This will push back the dates further. Ofcourse i'm not suggesting that you all work through the holidays though.
It would be good if you would update us as to whats going on.
Are your staffing levels back up to full strength?
What kind of time frame have you set yourselves for the remaining discussion topics?
Have you made any progress on the internal test server?
Or have there been setbacks with testing on the internal server, in which case are you able to give us some idea of what you have encountered?
Sure i know it cant be rushed, nor do i want it to be rushed and end up badly done. But plz try to include us more in whats going on.
In any of these discussion topics has there been the situation where you have looked at our feedback and later on in the thread posted information relervant to that topic based on how you have progressed?
The things that worked and the things that have not worked?
What adjustments if any, you have made from the initial draft of changes in the first post of each topic?
I'm sure more of the community shares the feeling that we need something.... anything.... from you to make us believe you are actually still working on this project let alone making progress.
This most certainly is not a rant, its a polite request for information.
Thankyouplease.
