MohAA V1.12 Patch

Trinitrotoluene · October 05, 2008, 06:45:45 PM

True! But I'm very afraid a lot of people will think "To hell with it, it's an unofficial patch, probably crap, I'm staying with 1.11" ...

You will get your answer on 1.12 from above answer.

this is what i think will happen...some server admins will patch and some will not..but i can tell you this much..after the patch i will never join a 1.11 server again to play..only 1.12:)

Trinitrotoluene: The magic word is PR.

   Its only matter of good communication between developers and communitys. As a newswritter i keep our guys focused on this project. I'll write a letter for the Polish moh community to let them know what is going on here.



   Someone asked me about the title of the patch(1.12); if this patch will REALLY fix THAT huge amount of bugs, why it wont get the 1.2 name? Because its unofficinal, thats why - i answered. Than i've started thinking about it. Why we/you guys wont go to the Ea with the whole project? I mean after we/you guys finished it. We/you guys have nothing to lose.

I could have a word with the guys at EA to sponsor it, theyre already aware of what we are doing and support it

Trinitrotoluene · October 06, 2008, 08:11:07 AM

You guys are all right about that. PR is the way to go. But after all we need to remember this is an old game, a lot of people have settled with 1.11. Some people might not even want 1.12 because it they're used to 1.11 (as in: we know all the bugs and how to use them, don't want them to be fixed). I might be wrong about this here, maybe it's not so bad after all. I hope I'm wrong. Get the news over to a lot of people is step one, next step is people to install it and keep using it. And what will happen to leagues like Clanbase? Separate ladders or a full update?

Funny, I also thought about the fact to speak to EA. With their 10th anniversary for the MoH series coming up. EA might actually be an important factor here with PR. It could make this patch look more official even though it isn't official. Hell, why don't we get EA to approve your work and get them to release it as an official patch? It's what I would do if it was a good piece of software, but also because of respect to Allied Assault. That would be awesome! EA doesn't have anything to lose on making it official, right? It would increase our chances of full success a lot.

I can't wait for this patch to get released. But I'm still a little bit skeptic about the fact if it would indeed get fully used instead of splitting the community (and leagues) between 1.11 and 1.12. But hey, I support it!

Don't forget server rental companies !

if we go to ea too soon and they stick their logo on it, we lose the ability to easily update it quickly.



   It's all PR asnd time, it will be slow and then a sudden burst of everything changing to the 1.12. Then slow again and so on.,



   Im condfident people will adapt it and everyone will want to convert for the fixes. Only the cheats will be dissapointed. But in time they will also find it good,



   From the start. I've said, fix it, not change it. We fix the game, nothing changes, in terms of game play.

Hey guys any news?

I R HUNGRY FOR NEWS

Soldier Of Ra · October 11, 2008, 07:10:28 PM

No, I don't think so, I just received the logs from singleplayer and noticed some remarkable errors. But I think everyone's busy with everyday life and I with my database.

James · October 11, 2008, 07:22:11 PM

We have all been pretty busy. heiko & I are working out on the anti-aimbot project and that seems pretty time consuming. Right now it's still just a theory in work but we'll see if it works.

/me crosses fingers

Soldier Of Ra · October 11, 2008, 08:57:08 PM

We've got confidence in you James. Your theories also turn out true, so yes, let's all cross our fingers. Even though you say it's time consuming, don't feel any pressure m8.

Soldier Of Ra · November 05, 2008, 12:10:26 PM

Okay, I think the real patch work is going to begin now. We've got our system to upload etc now. So you'll start seeing items in the tracker getting a fixed status.

szuperferko · November 05, 2008, 02:11:21 PM

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY. Obama brought changes...

Don't think Obama is responsible for this progress though
