This is so true.

Ages ago, back in 2007, Avatar's Signature image said BZC's assets were 99% complete. When I started working on it, they were *created*, but fine tuning is still going on today.

Since the B3 release a year ago, I've been working on optimizing the code and a hand full of new features. That last bit of bug testing / fine tuning is still taking the most time.

Looks like you think you're just about done. Think again.

Good lord, ain't that the truth. I've been two weeks away from a mod release for almost three months now. :shock:

And that's before about 10 brilliant ideas. :)

From what I see "the game" isn't worth playing because it doesn't exist. When you've made one, let us know. Otherwise I'm perfectly happy waiting for you to get your essential content made- I was doing it for an easy 3 years.

If it's any consolation, the 'Platoon Studios' has a lot of room for improvement. As do we all.

I fear that when LtFeed reads those kind of replies, all he see's are insults instead of advice. :(

Using the Battlezone name as LtFeed currently is is decidedly unwise given the current situation.

Slightly OT here because my google search landed me a few pages backwards... But I don't suppose anybody fancies putting me in contact with Reveomag / Mike do they? Keen to speak to him about what they're doing, they're handing out private beta's with NDA's at the moment so I'd be keen to see if I could get in on that.

Unlikely of course, but I'd like to at least put myself on their radar with what I'm doing as well.

I can't post there, probably banned for some ridiculous reason from 10+ years ago knowing the folks that own that forum..
