Change Log?

Narfwak · July 2004

1) Open up the <a href='http://www.natural-selection.org/bt/login_page.php' target='_blank'>bug database</a>.
2) Use the public login (guest/guest).
3) Look at all the "resolved" bugs marked for beta 5. There's your changelog.

NolSinkler · July 2004

Thats not the complete changelog.

1.) Some bugs/features are hidden from the public for various reasons
2.) Its not like they put things like "bug 767: Raise Onos health slightly" in there, as the devs know (i hope) that they need to raise the Onos health
3.) Sometimes they make last minute changes (lerk flight costing no energy or aliens gain exp over time in combat anyone?)

I'm happy that their fixing all the bugs. And about the balancing issue, well... As far as I know they are moving engine room hive on ns_bast, which is a HUGE balance change. So it's not all bug fixes, just mostly <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

They also made Tram Tunnel a lot more alien friendly (last time I read the thread in the mapping forum, anyway) by adding obstacles for cover and vent entrances.

27 hours... I want it now...

All this excitement stolen from me by timezones.
Still, patience is a virtue and all that.

NolSinkler · July 2004

Well, it is the 23rd where flayra is...its (I think their time zone is 6 hours behind michigans) 5:06 there, they have had a while to release it. I'm ready for b5...don't tell me they're making last-minute changes or something...

For the most part, yes, that is the changelog. Beta 5 is almost exclusively bug fixes, and lots of them.

im_lost · July 2004

It is the 23rd everywhere now. However, he still has until 11:59pm (in some time zone) to meet the deadline he said. So, wait until tomorrow at least before you decide to complain.

It''s probably a feature, but it's still a broken one. Particularly with the onos and "blast" damage, but also how the marines can behave in a certain way to greatly increase the knockback.

2-3 feet is one thing, but having your leck ripped off and having it somehow <i>increase</i> your ability to dodge is just wrong.
