.85 release.... (I know, just read it first)

OK, I know all the stuff about not asking when updates are being released, and I know the inevitable answer (when it's done.)



However, I would like to ask something to the DEV's that I think is a very reasonable question regarding the release of .85



It's a simple question, with 2 answers that are very general.



Question - When is .85 expected to be released?



A) Possibly this year.


or


B) Probably next year.




A would mean that it's starting to take shape, and has a chance at a 2008 release, but isn't necessarily going to be released soon (within 2 months)

B would mean that it is still largely a WIP and we shouldn't expect it anytime soon (again, within 2 months)




Please DEV's, at least answer A or B.

We all know that nothing is set in stone, and that things like this take time, but by answering one of the two you would at least give us some idea of how progress is going.

I don't see why, in this format, you wouldn't be able to give the community at least a vague idea of when its coming out.


Thanks.

You've probaly seen the answer before, "it will be released when its done" no sooner or later.
It's impossible for the devs to put an accurate date of a release anyhow.

Cheers

did you even read what he said....at all?


your first line and his first line are basically the same.....

he said many times that he doesn't expect the DEV's to know exactly when it's coming out...

and he doesn't need your input on this, this is for DEV's to answer....






This is a very well written thread, I would like to see the DEV's answer A or B, it's a very reasonable question as the OP said...

Don't see why they can't answer it..

The moral of the story is just play the game you have. As soon as .85 comes out, people will be posting "Zomg wen iz .9 ?"
The devs will take as long as they need.

O noes! Please don't tell on me! :roll:



And you still don't seem to get what the OP is asking, all he wants is a very general date of release, possibly 2008, or probably 2009.

What's so hard to understand about that?

All you guys are such ********...(except you randompants)


Quit posting your useless BS in my thread, I'm asking this to the DEV's!!!

Nobody here has contributed a damn thing at all...

I thought we could have a more mature discussion regarding this but of course I get all these idiots coming in and saying "it's done when it's done ffs"


My first post says it all...just read that and then get back to me. Unless you have something useful to say please shut the hell up.

I am by no means an official word reflecting the opinions or thoughts of the Project Reality team. That aside, I believe it's coming 2009. I think I read there's 5-7 months between each release. :)

He asked nicely,he knows DEVS dont like getting pushed around or bullied,NO ONE who feels bad about this thread needs to post here.So i really hope there wont be any sandy vag00ns.He knows it will be out when its ready,he just wants a lil hint.

it may be in '08' if not it'll be in '09',
the best you can do is hope for 08 but prepare for 09, wish us luck in our respective projects and wait it out

nuff said really :wink:

Good luck +1

See, that was all we needed.


It means that progress IS being made, and since an 08 release is possible, it

means that if it's not released in 08, it can't have that much further to go into 09 before being released.


Thank you, Nickbond.

First of all, this was meant for a DEV to answer, so everything you guys said amounted to shit.


Second of all, what you said was a useless post, (either 2008 or 2009), nice going trying to be cute....really clever with that ambiguous answer....had me chuckling for a bit...


Third of all, what Nickbond said helps a lot because as long as a DEV said it has a chance of being released this year, that means that its making good progress, and if it won't be long after 2009 most lifely.

If he had said "it won't be this year" , then we would have no clue how long to wait, but thanks to the power of inference, we can get a rough estimate of its release

I'd say mid-December the absolute earliest, February the absolute latest.
