The current situation
- The mod is dying
Aug 2012
Aug2012
The fans want a new open beta.
The ESF Team have fear of the negative comments of the ignorant fans. (like open beta final)
[HR][/HR]
Solution
1. Release a demo.
- 1 character (or 2)
- 1 map
2. Add a completion percentage in the homepage.
3. Release punctually POTW (and possibly MOTM).
4. don't be rude with the new fans/member.
5. Don't turn this forum into a concentration camp. (with the ban hammer)
6. Write on the homepage daily progress. (like a changelog)
7. Update the website with the new logo, screenshots, videos and working downloads.
Benefits
- the popularity of the old days
- new fans
- old fans return
- better reputation
- feedback (positive and negative)
- peace and reconciliation with all fans <3
- the fans wil not ask for a release date
If you liked Masta-Hitler here is the big picture.

http://bit.ly/SJOLd0Layne said:actualy, we constantly do our portion of work, it could be faster, but we reached a point where we don't add new stuff, and concentrate on the final release. The point where we stoped adding new stuff and concentrated on the more important stuff was reached long ago, right now i can load the game, choose from a variety of finished maps, choose from a variety of finished/polished models, with houndreds of individual animations ( all hail DT ) and play for several hours
using finished meele , beams, transformations etc, and have all of that rendered with a a stunning new lighting/texture/audio/composition and fx quality which we upgraded soooo much, and puted sooo much work on. it's just, the main "core" element behind the whole game works, we just don't have all the content, and we don't wanna do like 2 or 3 releases, with new models and maps, we wanna prepare a solid release. We could release the game with a few fine maps and models of quality you won't even find in the actual ps3 games, all that works, we show that in a few videos. It's just a matter of content, which we want to gather as much as possible for 1 big release, i don't know a release date, no one on the team knows, but for me, christmass 2012 is possible : )

http://bit.ly/QLLjICLayne said:Well, uhm, as i said earlier, a huge portion of the game is done, i was playing today for like 1 h with lot's of characters and on a few maps, im not saying that to make your waiting suck even more, just to make a point that ESF 1.3 is realy done in a huge percentage. It's stable, fun to play, just how we aimed for it to be, there are few things which are missing, and that's what keeping as from a release, as i said eariler, from how i see things, it could be possible to release on christmas or even sooner. Maybe im wrong, couse i don't see the code behind the whole thing, but on second though , i can't be as that far off from my calculations, couse everytime i play the game, it seems mostly completed, stuff is missing, but we are definetly closer to the point where we can think about releasing. But i only clean here, so the release decision is not on me hah. Im just sharing my honest point about what i see when i play the current inteam version, i think you guys deserve that.
