What happened to .81?

**sages** · 01-02-2007, 07:20

It was going to be released any minute and 'days' several weeks ago. I've been holding off playing waiting for it to show up... Vacation is over officially tonight, and no sign of it! *snif*

Some persistent bugs, some delays due to real life, and then the holidays affecting the team members. Right now we're testing internally.

Believe me, we aren't happy either. The plan is to get this thing out ASAP.

One thing you learn with EB is that you never hold your breath. You should have just played .80 during your break, although it's completely understandable what your thought process was. Alas, now break is over and .80 wasn't even enjoyed as it should have been.

Yeah, I've played EB, but have not let myself get too terribly attached to any particular campaign, less the next day the patch come out and make me start a new one.

It`s the exact thing that happens to me too.

Anyways, this has been useful for me, since I`ve tried almost every faction on the game, in advance for a more stable campaign in 0.81.

Sorry guys, but it's just as blacksnail said. For a good laugh it was initially expected to be a patch released "after a couple of days" to fix a few issues that were discovered during the last compilation stages of 080.

Or at least I saw that term thrown out once.

I'm out of here now for a few days and I do fully expect to see new lists of what we missed still in the bug reports section when I get back. (which means I am hoping it will be out for a couple of days at least by the time I'm back

)

For tonight's math homework, EB fans, TA has left us with the following problem:

"Few" - "Couple" = ?

Teasing, TA, enjoy your break. Somehow I'll manage not to gnaw my fingers off in anticipation. Just please do your damnedest to squash any AI turn CTD bugs. Everything else I can live with, it's a beta, as long as I can keep playing it.
