Default Re: About Patch or Version 2.0

Guys,

I apologize for the lack of information on the delay in the patch, but I am sure everyone here will be happy with the end result. The release is queued for next week and I will post more details when a date is finalized. I can understand the frustration on getting the fixes, and new features, out now so everyone can enjoy them. Making sure all of our customers are 100% satisfied is job number one at Shrapnel Games. To alleviate that frustration I will make sure we have an exact date firm date before I post another date in this thread.

One thing to keep in mind that in software development a last minute bug can always be found by a QC/QA team at the very last minute that can put a monkey wrench into everyone's plan. So even after I commit to a date, anything can always happen. My full time job is at a Fortune 25 company, where I am involved in different elements of software development, QA, and Project Management. I would be a rich man if I had a dollar for every time something like this put a release off a day, a week, a month, or more.

Again let me get a firm date and I will let you guys know. The new date probably won't be posted until after the weekend.

Thanks for everyones patience.
