Ok so first of all I was a fan of this game a looooong time ago.
When you guys started to develop the new version I was excited. The beta was promising and fanbase was still here. This was 2008-2009. At that time you guys wanted to finish it by 2010 and maaybe 2011.
At 2011 I like most others realized that something was wrong. The classic "It is done when it is done" answer was given for every inquiry. I have to say this is not an answer.
After that I just visited esf webpage 1-2 times a YEAR and I was never surprised. Everytime I visit I see some screenshots showing some (now outdated since making use of shaders and bringing in all those effects is no longer a big deal. Heck almost every new game even use tesselation) effects, nice animation, art but that's all.
I understand that none of you are getting paid to do this and I appreciate the effort you put in this. But this is not an answer to the inquiries either.
I wasn't going to bother creating a thread but when I looked at the updates I felt the need. So you have corrected a minor texture bug and added a frigging ship is that it? Who the f..k cares? If these are the only problems you have then that means the game is perfectly playable and should be released, if not then that means you are using the precious labor on extremely minor things instead of finishing the game.
Again I know that you are not getting paid and this is VERY time consuming. But in that case there is one simple truth that you have to admit. The game is no longer being developed.
It has been years, we got old and many of us no longer play games. Still with the release of DB super this game can really be popular again.
So JUST RELEASE WHAT YOU HAVE AND LET THE COMMUNITY TAKE OVER. Lot's of kids these days are actually learning, training on 3d game design and you can make this game improving with the help of them. Also with popularity you can also get donations(I know you can not sell this one due to compyrighted material but donations should not be a problem).
I am not sure if I am even going to check this thread again because this game became a thing in the past for me now. Still you can still do something and not let it die like this...
