When 1.1 Is Released

LinkLink Join Date: 2002-10-16 Member: 1510Members
<div class="IPBDescription">NOT when will it be released</div> Just curious as to how you plan to do it? Will it be as 1.0 where you relased the server a couple of days before the client, or will it be both at the same time?

mods - I couldn't think of anywhere more appropriate to put this, so please move it if you can think of somwhere

    i just want to be given an estimate file size of the 1.1...if its anything like the size of them CS patches, i could be spending the first few hours of release downloading the flipping thing...dam 56k <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You'd think they'd release the server first. Every one will race to update their clients, only to have no where to play. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    The large size of most installs/patches is due to maps, which cannot be compressed very far. It's likely that 1.1 will be a fairly substantial download, since several official maps are getting reworked, and there will likely be new maps as well.

    Due to issues with the pre-release of the windows dedicated server, I suspect that if Flayra releases the server files early, he will only do so for the Linux build. That's his call, though.

    Well, since when 1.0 some people hacked the server version into a playable version(how the heck?), I guess I have some basis on assuming that the server and client versions will be released at the same time.
    Then again, coil is a tester and all that and probably knows better, so dont listen to me <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    This is what I meant about the windows server - the Linux server cannot be "hacked" in this way. So if Flay does prerelease the dedicated server, it will likely *only* be the Linux version.

    here is something i REALLY want you to try to do, because it makes perfect sense..
    I bought CS RETAIL and found that i needed to patch it a few times...well...about 5 times actually.
    the most likely place to find it, or so i thought... would be the counter-strike website. I was suprised to see they only hosted the latest patch. Are they stupid? After what seemed like hundreds of broken links and non-existent mirrors, I finally found the patch i needed, and could finally install the other patches which were on my PC Gamer disks phew...

    So please, dont remove the patches when a new one comes out, because it makes life so much more difficult for new players, who have to frustratingly go and scan the web for them. but then you arent the CS team are you, and i trust that you wouldnt even dream of doing such a silly thing. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I imagine the 1.1 patch, like the server patches to date, will encompass all previous patches. You shouldn't need to DL multiple patches.

    When 1.2 comes out, we'll see... there may be a 1.1->1.2 patch and a 1.0->1.2 patch, or there may just be a 1.x->1.2 patch. *shrug*

    Why do people say maps can't be compressed very much?
    In my experience I have been able to zip an 8 meg .bsp down to 3.
    I do however agree that maps would be the biggest chunk of the download. Just thought I might give my 2 cents.

    I know.... let's start demanding changes for 1.2
    That way, by the time they get around to starting it, there will be 20 topics with 700 postes each telling the devs what to do.

    I know... It's a shame.

    Yeah... I believe that the gorgs and commanders have too much power in 1.1
    I mean.. they can build WHATEVER THEY WANT!
    DEVS! Please NERF this so that they must obey the one plan for victory!
  • SupernornSupernorn Best. Picture. Ever. Made. Ever. Join Date: 2002-11-07 Member: 7608Members, Constellation
    totally OT here but i have noticed that people keep saying gorg instead of gorge. I would just pass it as a mere typo, but if you listen to the *gorges just want to have fun* parody song, its said "GORG" and not "GOR-JE"

    so what is it? is it pronounced "GORG" or "GOR-JE" i have heard "GOR-JE" mainly over the voice comm..

    im so confused! <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Some people say 'George' too, which confuses me greatly.
  • ZelZel Join Date: 2003-01-27 Member: 12861Members
    im pretty sure it is officially gorj. the same nubs who say SKUL beacuse its on the tab screen say GORG. but to solve the issue just call em the fatty.
  • HeistHeist Join Date: 2002-11-09 Member: 7922Members
    I do say gorge even though I wrote gorg. But Zel is right.
  • CoREJayFiveCoREJayFive Join Date: 2003-02-12 Member: 13479Members, Constellation
    I think people tend to write 'gorg' and 'skul' because the classes show up that way on the scores screen. I would think they know what the correct spelling is...but are just used to seeing it that way.

    This is of course, another misnomer. As my predecessor H4xwell pointed out, the proper term for the builder is "Fatteh", and 1.2 tooltips should be changed to reflect this fact.
