Hellstormer Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Normal people work 40 hours a week for their job (this is a normal workload) Depends on your country. The "average" here in the States last year was pushing 50 hours/work but paid at the scale of 40/week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 It's cool people posting on the forum - if I don't want to answer a message, I don't have to. Plus the longer-serving members can often help with questions anyway. It's a two-way street anyway. Fan feedback is important; it helps us calibrate what we're doing with the people who will eventually play the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzz Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 We'll patch them back in next week, likely next weekend, Sorry for my question, but i suppose "next weekend" is now - any anouncements? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicron Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Downloading the updates to see how the game is coming along. Long time supporter. Can't wait to see what is new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbobfury Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 So, any chance of an update on the next release? Hopefully the slight delay (based on Chris hinting at patching a few things the weekend just passed) is due to fixing a couple of the bugs which still remain, primarily the reaction fire hang. Also, I don't know why but since I first downloaded the alpha, the threat level of the AI seems even lower than when we had the old AI. My soldiers rarely miss a shot, even when they show a low % chance to hit, and the aliens rarely land one on target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 V9.2 should come out this weekend. My PC exploded two days ago, which wasn't too big a problem as I switched to the render machine instead. However that exploded yesterday and I've spent today assembling one working PC from the remains of the other two (the culprits were a failed solid state hard drive and a PSU), but it's taken a long time to do it and the last few days haven't been very productive unfortunately. The rest of the team have carried on working but I've not been able to pull it all together at my end yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbobfury Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Crap, sorry to hear that, Chris. Sounds like a real pain. Best of luck bringing it together in time for the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzz Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 My PC exploded Oh, wow. It was based on experemental alien technologies? No offence. Glad to see you and development news Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNoyce Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Sorry to hear about the hardware problems -- that really sucks. Glad to hear that you're getting that back under control. An update this weekend/next week would certainly be cool, but it's more important to get the hardware up and running in my opinion. Wishing you a lot of luck with that -- honestly.

Chris Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 Well the rule is that the day doesn't end until I go to sleep, but things are going fairly well right now so hopefully it should be a fairly clean run to release. I'm just doing some upgraded graphics for the new air combat UI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
