When it is ready.

When it is ready.

Thanks for the smart ass comment.

The fact is that software development is non-linear: you can add as many sweet features as you want, but if there are *any* significant bugs, the whole program generally comes crashing down. Hence, estimating when *any* software project will be complete is very difficult. Just look at Valve's historical release schedule and you'll find this comment is more used than you'd think.

I understand that, it's just that comments like that from someone who's not the developer are unnecessary. I wasn't asking to be a nag. I don't check the progress very often so to ask if it's going to be soon or far off doesn't seem like that big of a deal.

Well i do know the developer, and that was the answer i recieved. I have done some mods of my own (Team Avalanche) and honestly 'When it is ready' is the safest answer a developer can give.

I don't really care if you know Aali or if you've made you're own mods. The question was to Aali, he answered (with the added touch that he hoped soon), and that was enough. Like I said before, your comment was unnecessary.

Look I dont care if you are an ass or not. I gave you the information I got from him so you can go leave your attitude at the door.

shawnli87, I know it is frustrating wanting a new version to come out but it is common knowledge that no one, not even the developer, knows when.

sl1982 has to deal with these same questions flooding threads time and again and it gets very frustrating (which is why he was the way he was).  Just walk away and wait.

Just curious Aali, Is this release going to be mostly a bug fix release? Or are you planning on adding new features.

Sorry i like being in the know haha
