A nice Idea...maybe...

A progress bar/percentage...
This would shut MANY mouths asking the "W" question...
Like
Campaign map X%
Units X%
etc...

I hope that all is 100% finished (at least for the features of the open beta) and that they all busy testing...
But you are right, some news will be good...

It would be good to say if the testing is positive at the moment or if many problems occured then are they serious or not.

Almost nothing is at or near 100% complete. That's the final product you're talking about I think, not the open beta.

As for testing the open beta, the "final" open beta build has not been distributed yet to the members, though the prior versions have been going through bug testing pretty well up until recently (and I'll say that there were very very few CTDs that couldn't be gotten around, but some of those lesser CTDs even have been eliminated now). There's a lot of internal waiting right now for this build but the public shouldn't be expecting it for at least another week. And anyone who interprets that as me saying the open beta would be released in a week will hopefully be made abused here in a merciless manner.

Thanks,Teleklos, it's good to hear that the internal testing is doing well.

PS: I eagerly wait the answer of a facetious EB member telling me that the mod is not 90% but 9% ready for the Open Beta......

Or then, the stars could represent single percents... Either way, both estimates could be as far from the truth.

Edit: Damn, didn't notice the PS.. You got me there, Spendios....

.... this will be avenged

You got it all wrong. The number of asterisks doesn't change. Only the percentage each one represents. There will always be the same amount of asterisks, but the mod will continue to progress and the bar be accurate

..and that's what one calls "creative accounting"...
