Is that soon?

Still waiting for my caustic variant...

Make it pre erruption with green trees everywhere aka a forest map without actually designing a new map.

[jozkhan]

so...

60+ days to complete the remaining 40% of the next map?

Is it me or is it taking longer to make these maps?

i would think that a lot of the art assets go in te fitting the camos to the clan mechs and the rest of the team is most likley hammering away at phase 1. There might also be a IS mech release in there even if it is just a hero.

so we get good news and you people whine even more.

typical.

Think of all the ghost hitboxes around the tree models, though...

There's another big mech package being developed - that's where the money is and businesses need paid. So about the time everyone else can get Clan mechs, those of us with cash will be able to buy Clan Buster mech packs. I'm just curious to see if they compare to the Clan mechs the same way Clan mechs compare to IS mechs. You mark my words though, it'll happen and in that timeframe.

So different people have different opinions and not all of them agree and someone has to resort to insulting remarks instead of just giving their opinion as well.

Unfortunately
It sounded like Bryan was saying they had been blocked from working on them to get clans out.

Not sure if I am misinterpreting that though

30 days~ to finish the map, 30 days to run it through test (2 weeks) and our Stable/Stage (2 weeks) pipeline. That's if everything is perfect, which is rarely true with maps, especially city maps. There tend to be many clipping and stuck geo bugs to sort out. Thus the 60 day minimum. Actual dev time on maps before test is anywhere from 2-4 months.

There's a good article here about the whole process.

[MechB Kotare]

Im honestly dissapointed to know, that we are min 2 more months until the release of new map, after 6 months waiting.

But then again, i'm glad you decided to enlighten us with any information about map producton. I just hope that after 30++ days of testing, you wont release another map, full of invisible walls, and ghost obstacles.
