It won't take too long, I can assure you that in a month or 2 you'll be happily playing 0.8 and thinking something like "Damn it was worth the wait".

I sure will... I haven't played any form of RTW for about a month now, i uninstalled it to build up the anticipation and i've been learning more about Romes history so i can recreate a perfectly accurate Roman expansion when 0.8 is released...

When all development has switched to a new version, trying to put out a piecemeal version on the older platform makes no sense at all.

We couldn't finish off a version in 1.2 because the major bugs we faced were caused by 1.2. What is the point of continuing to develop on a flawed version when, ostensibly, the point of the beta was to find and fix bugs?

**Trithemius** · 06-07-2006, 06:10

Is there anything that people can do to continue to help? Or have most of the bugs been found and attended to by now?

I've started playing again (Oblivion + real life sort of owned me for a while there...) and want to know if I should be taking notes and screenshots if and when weird things happen.

At this point, we have learned all we can learn from 1.2, I am afraid. 1.5 will be somewhat of a fresh start for us in finding bugs, and I think we've pretty much addressed all of the miscellaneous problems, or are at least aware of them.

It never hurts to collect information, but the person who was doing our bug collecting has semi-retired (Simetrical). If someone has a good amount of time and wants to help, they can continue his work in the bug area; this would be greatly appreciated.

Put an application at the EB Required Help thread and leave behind a blood sample and 3 hair samples from random parts of your body. We will come back to any applicant when results have returned from the lab.

If the vB Spellcheck detecs any spellinge errors in your application you will be disqualified.

Heh, and then about two weeks later everyone will be clamoring for a 0.9 release.

Doesn't 1.5 culture code fix this? OMG the whingers will need to find something new to complain endlessly about.

Perhaps the newcomers will just download EB without reading that it is still a beta and that it has a special CTD button feature... Then an hour after release there will be 15 different threads all entitled: "OMG I GET CTD WHEN I RIGHT CLICK ON MILITARY BUILDING OMG EB SUCKS I GO BACK TO RTR"
