    I think we had hoped to release it in May. Or maybe it was June when we first hoped to release it. Although "we" isn't appropriate there, since I only joined the team two weeks ago.

    We might have to be creative if we want to keep up the previews. Like maybe we could revisit factions we've already done.

    I thought we had an equivalent amount of time remaining when I posted the message, way back when, that we were shooting for a May release of the open beta. So take that for what it is worth.

    If what we are currently testing works, I can say with confidence that we do NOT have another four months to wait, not even close. If what we are currently testing does not work, I cannot say that, because I don't know what our solution will look like...back to the drawing board, if it were, and no one will be happy, mostly the dev team.

    Two or three weeks at the earliest?

    Wow! That's great! *knocks on wood*


    Well, take your time. I, for one, want a playable beta, so I'll be patient. Unlike my query about green arrows. (BTW, are you guys removing those? )


    And to Kayapo, I know you guys are working on great changes through the trait system to make the generals more "RPG" lovable. I think that is terrific, and I thank you for your hard work.

    Thanks to all you guys, BTW.

    Just one request. Can you keep us informed of whether what you're testing works or not, as soon as you know? Good news or bad news, it's nice to be kept informed.

    Who gave you our traits system so you could take that screenshot?

    Ah! the Generals! they are numerous, but not good for much (especially if they're Languorous)!

    Malrubius is the one you should thank.

    I'm only proud to be helping with this part of the game. To me it already looks incredible, and it still has room to grow...(big_jonh and jerby idea for example...and others...). I if you've always wanted a more RPG like approach to your generals I have a feelling that you might be pleased with the results.

    No you don't, and the first person who suggests I made an estimate of when the mod will be finished will be banned from this forum.

    Think I'm kidding?

    Sorry, I see i hite a sore spot, i was really joking, and sorry if you took it the wrong way..

    I know what you were giving, an early as possible date, but I just found it a little funny. Sorry, im sure you are tired of people trying to get you to, or say you did give a release date, but it was a joke, as I see many of your members crack them here all the time.

    No no, Khelvan was kidding. We just hate estimates or due dates.

    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...
