better to not receive updates often and let the esf team who are not even getting any profit of it, develop the mod longer so it will be better and with less bugs
here look at blizzard entertainement, their games are always the best, and you know why? because that they just shoo anybody who yells stuff like "release it already" or "come on give some news" and just kill more bugs and add more features
and when they are asked for the release date - they reply: "when it's ready"
good work esf team, you guys clearly convinced me that hl1 engine could be revived and i wish that the other mods teams would follow you and do the same
