Zing boom.

I agree. I'm sure we'll soon find out what Aaron is working on, but I've a nasty feeling it won't be the next patch.

I'd sure like to know more about this RPG or whatever it is.

Anyone read Calvin & Hobbes? Remember the series of strips where Calvin orders a flying beanie hat? That's us that is.

Default It\'s so quiet

I admit I am impatient to get rid of this nasty counter-intel bug, which really drives me crazy in my current games. So I long for the next patch to correct this.
It's now a month since Aaron is back from holidays and besides the notice from Richard that something big is in preparation there are no news about the next patch.
It's just too quiet for my taste!

I certainly hope he does fix the Intelligence bug soon. It would be a massive tragedy if this game is forever known as being the game with No Intelligence.

I think the usual procedure with patches is to first have them undergo extensive beta testing. I don't recall any comments from any beta testers that the patch has been released to them yet. I'm expecting this to be known as the game with No Intelligence for quite some time (of course I hope I'm wrong).

There's some reassurance on Malfador's news page.

You all know the URL by now, but
here's a link anyway. Aren't I nice to you?

Cool. Will be nice to have to deal with another patch again. Having to work out all the new bugs and all. J/K. I look forward to it.
