one or two things left to add in...

The final testing and bug fixes for the new stuff is what we are concentrating on. While it shouldnt be long, it depends on how many bugs our test team turns out and how fast we can fix them.

Yeah, yeah, I realize: a) you might or might not make it for the date you would say b) I have no right to critizise you for not making the date you say.

Well spa showed up and will have another set of animations for us this weekend. So we are still on track and RC1 builds still should happen this weekend. At most we have lost one day....again its crunch time so we have spent more time making sure we got all of the detials (manual update, duel maps ready, credits done, ect) updated....

I don't know that we specified a particular date

But you should have seen the thread with the changelog in it.. as you can see a lot has been going on, and that means a lot needs to be tested and tweaked. But its right there at the tip of your fingers, just give us a little more time to polish it.

Well, that sort of thing IS possible and may be implemented later on.

It will probably involve something similar to runes, so you pick up a certain rune, and it lights your sword on fire, causing anything you hit to suffer additional damage similar to a tiny napalm grenade explosion, or something of the sorts. In any case, it would be cool to use your sword as a flaming lightsource. No-one could hide from you!

We hit a few more minor snags in the last build. We found a few more bugs that had to be addressed. This morning another build was uploaded that should have fixed those issue. The last model is in now:

I am sorry we did not get a chance to bring this to you yet. We are still working our butts off to get it to you ASAP. It really should be very soon. Thanks and sorry.

The code is finnished more or less
But the model is NOT. So we decided to not hold back this next version. the game plan is to come back with a smaller update with the weapons that did not make it. The CPP/MUG also have been worked on just not done yet.

Thankz.

Well here is the skinny

You have a turret launcher with 2 charges in it. It takes one of those charge to deploy a small turret. 2 Charges gets a big turret. Small turrets can not change weapons, have less HP and you pick which gun it has when you fire it. Big turrets have both guns and you can change weapon on them. All turrets will have a turret cam so you can see what they are doing. Thats the short version
