They work when they can and with what they can, that's what voluntary work is all about.
I thought concepts really didnt have to be worked on since u guys had a whole game of 'em in EB1... :P
Kingdoms will allow us to do a number of things in EB2 that we would have liked to have done EB1, but couldn't. These include some rather basic game mechanics concepts, which means a lot of things need to be redesigned from the bottom up.Quote:

ah, thanks.Quote:

EB 1.2 with all those sub-mods is VERY challenging for me, and still an endless source of fun!!!
Thank you EB guys for all the work and time you're pouring into this titanic project!
Take your time EB II Team. The better game we get the happier we will be.
Better blown away the first time i play EBII Then get it now and get an EB II with Feudal Knights in my Republican Army.:yes:
do you realize how BADASS that would be?!?Quote:

Besides that... *shrugs* I know how mods are developed so keep up the good work and looking forward to the end product. :)

Anyways, I agree with that Swedish proverb, seeing as how I recently discovered EB (The wealth of historical information is incredible, right up my alley), I feel it'll keep me busy in the years to come whilst I try to scrounge up the money for upgrading to M2/(In the future) EB II.
So yeah, take your time EB team (Although the most likely occurance is that these guys are going to do their own thing regardless of what we say here), better to wait 3 years, and have the anticipation met with enjoyment, than to wait 2 months, be disappointed, and then wait 3 years anyways while the programmers patch and improve.:juggle2:
There are also faction changes that would have to be redone considering the sources were contrived. But things do seem to be on track with Power2the1 redoing the Gaesatae and most likely other 'Celtic' units to make them historical.Quote:

I spent more than 2 hours so as just to import a unit to another faction that do not have that unit.
I did manage to recruit that unit but after I changed EDU and EDB I got tired of persistant CDTs.
So I leave EDU and EDB alone.
Believe me, data files do not like one who touches them :laugh4:
I am sure that the team can release EB2 even this week but are trying not to make a disappoinment.
So I am sure that you can wait more for a complete one later rather than a buggy an CTDied one earlier.
Surely with near 3 months under our belts another Stele is in the works? :whip:
What would you prefer, MAA spending 5 hours setting up an Stele or spending 5 hours creating EBII?
Both, and not sleeping for 24 hours.
What a silly question! Of course I would rather have him work on a stele!
A stele would give us something to discuss for days or even weeks, and if the cost is getting EB II 5 hours late(:drama1:), then so be it.
Foot actually does the work on the Steles.Quote:

But seriously people, stop asking for Steles. Are 7 not enough for now? Don't answer that.
I demand a new stele! NOW!
I'll cry if I don't get it.
Are you accusing me of being involved in this?Quote:

Edit: Oudysseos, you do have a point there. I should really read my posts before I make them.
You know, spam is not nearly as amusing as you think it is when you post it.
Stop spamming, Odysseos. It's not so amusing as you think it is when you post it.
Anyways, to sum up this thread, EB2 is a game being made by volounteers who work on it during their own free time with no pay, and who follow no contract or have no set goals in terms of time as to when it should be finished. Stop harrassing the EB Team about how much longer this game'll take. It could take a couple years, or a couple decades.
Let's leave it at that. :dancinglock:
