What's up with you ungrateful lot? CptWhite, Skullar, Icefire and the rest are breaking their arses trying to get this thing out to you, and all you can do is whine because it's going to be a little bit later than we were told. Well boo-hoo to you. That's life!

It's a couple of days - that's all. We've waited this long. Waiting a little bit longer isn't going to hurt anyone. And it's better that they iron out the minor stuff that they can fix now, instead of everyone having to download updates for ridiculously minor stuff at a later date.

You stick to your guns, guys. You're doing a sterling job.

You're kidding, right?

I just spent four rushed hours today recording voice overs for all of the mission briefings only to hear that I didn't have to rush?! Dammit!

Announcing release dates and then failing to meet them (and it's a demo ... chill OUT) is in the honored tradition of Blizzard Entertainment...3D Realms...Ion storm...Westwood...Volition...uh...everyone?

Quality > An arbitrary date.

Shush, complainers!

Arrgg, don't do that, didn't you read what morfeus said. DO NOT GIVE US RELEASE DATES THAT ARE WRONG. You know damn well you will not release it on tuesday or wednesday. It's a wonder if you even release it on friday. So for the next releases of the mo...
i mean TC, only say, "it's coming" ok?

but you have to realize... EVERYONE is asking... demanding for a release date. they pretty much had to give one.

As far as I know... weapons tech room crashes always if it has modified data. Or are you trying to say we can fix something that any other modding team can't?

Oh well, I understand it too well that we should release buggyless demo but as this is a demo we don't have to have everything included, I'm fearing that you want soon narn-centauri pack included and that takes a damn long time.

After a well earned sleep (I slept like a baby btw ) I think we should wait for the launcher so all newbies who don't know how registry works can enjoy the most of our project. But if we are going to wait for every damn small/minor thing like those few sounds that are still missing (thanks to Fokker!) it takes long, perhaps too long.

I'm pretty sure that the launcher won't be finished in monday and Ice is pretty busy too, after launcher and the missions are finished and tested we should release.

Oh well... I'm not expecting anyone listens to me anyways... I'm just a harmless janitor...

sleight, if you didn't submit your voice overs by now...we'd be a week farther behind. We had to do that before we could move some things along.

This week were adding some details and working over some bugs. I really didn't feel like we were going to make Monday because we just setup some of the latest weapon effects and sounds and were still working over stuff like proper credits (which are extremely important) and extra information.

I'd like to point out that NO OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE was given and has not been given at any time that I can remember. I personally have never said...well guys...September 15th..that'll be the day...nope...I never said that. Some of the team has been more open about it, you guys demanded that we tell you a date, I even got hate mail because I wasn't saying a date and then we get criticized for "breaking" a supposed release date.

Don't call both sides of the coin when its convienent.

We're nearly done...we're just making it ready for everyone.

HEAR HEAR... keep up the work.

BTW I could make you guys models in autocad, dont know how to convert them to truespace for final touchups(scaling) or adding textured, but I could make the models.
I'd also like to give a good hoot to our boys overseas.

Icefire,

Thanks for clearing that up. I busted my ass something fierce to record those briefings! Those were the longest takes that I've had to record so far and were a humongous bitch to nail. I'm glad that the effort wasn't wasted.

First off. How dare any of you people get on them about ANYTHING period. They have been busting their @$$es for US. They never had to do this. They could have just let another group try to work on it with probably a hell of a lot less quaitly. Be happy you are going to get a mod....sorry...TC at all. I have been waiting for this since ITF got canned by Sierra and I'll wait as long as it takes. If you are going to work on a project the size of this you do it right. With all major projects like this delays are expected so get used to it and quit whining about it. Do any of you recall them giving an exact date? I don't. I just remember hearing a tentative timeframe given for the release. From what I have read they want to release really good quality work which I give them a pat of the back for. If any of you whiners think you could do better please try to do so so I can laugh at you.

Keep it up guys and don't let the whiny little kids get to you. Get the job done and get it done right.

I agree with ranger 1, nobody has the right to complain we never got an exact release date and I see why, a project this size has so many unseen variables that can occur.
I look forward to the day it is finally released but in no way am I pressurising any of you to give a release date at all, I just hope you all remember to take it easy, don't over work yourself and just relax. I have peach tea and find it is good for helping me relax after a hard day (when I used to have a job) but now I have free time on my hands and no idea what exactly to do with myself, so I just stay at home and drink tea, it's fun
anyway you do not need to give any of us release dates or anything just release it in your own time, the people who truly want this tc (like me) are patient enough to wait, and have the manners not to ask stupid questions that annoys anyone, ok I'm done now

I agree whining about "when is it out" "release it allready" and all that doesn't help ****.With good luck it just creates stress to the team and the release will delay.

And what i have seen from the screens it will be worth the wait.

my question was : Why is a mod/TC team releasing a demo ? not like you have to convince people to buy

Posted by tomcat on 10-10-2001 07:32 AM:
