i think it would be nice to have a countdown on the main page of the site (after the team announce the release date of the next beta)
much like http://thewavelength.net
to end confusion about time zones ect ...


P.S. if you are reading this after may12 then most likely that count down on TWL will disappear because their site would be released by then.

@ Pcjoe they had only a pic with the release date of it

I see your point,but I believe here is no defined release date for B1.1 so it wouldnt be bothered about until it is actually released

but if they did have a set date then they might decide....but it's up to them,not me....

i know, it's a patch, but i am not just suggesting it for 1.1 patch, i am suggesting it as a "policy" (huh?) for every next release :p

hmm, well i just liked the count down thingy when i saw it, so .. i thought it would be cool to see it on esf too =P

Yeah, ive heard (HEARD) they are telling us about 1 week in advance about the 1.1 release. I think a countdown bar at the top corner by the POTW would be really cool and it would stop alot of spam posts on the forums too

I think it's hard to have a count down for a release when they don't know when they are going to release it. :p

Why is it taking so long to just make a patch...
You are not making beta 2 just beta 1.1 that means that it dosen´t need to be major changes in it...

Just because the changes aren't as drastic as, say, going from alpha to beta doesn't mean that it's quick and/or easy. :p

BEH, wait for it . . .

It's done when it's done . . . nothing short of all of you paying for them not to have real jobs will make it come out faster. ESF is done on free time, and I for one salute them.

It's worth the wait, you ungrateful monkeys :)

question,

are your lives so boring that u have to be at the esf site and count down ever hour

ie.
yay 103 hours to go and 24 minutes


as said above it done when its done, so accept it and go do something else
those that have a girlfriend (me laughs at a lot of u's) dod something with them

those that dont go get one

or

just play enough game, i mean the matrix come out soon, ther the new vesion of DoD and pleant of other mods

summing up
Its done when its done and released when released, so wait AND DEAL WITH IT

Well, we know what the countdown is now; it's when the linux version is done. That's good enough for me. :)
