    Is Empires dead, dieing or are people panicking over nothing?

    As far as I'm aware there is work being done, the research tree is being overhauled, the port to the OB engine is underway, and a lot of balance changes are being implemented to generally improve the game. I have heard concern expressed about the lack of full time modellers and skinners on the team, however I don't think many new models and skins are required for a lot of the work that needs doing.

    They could make a news post and ask for help,Empires is very popular,I'm sure they could fill the gaps,but they don't seem to need any help....

    Krenzo is busy with a project of his own, he stops by here to check on things every now and then.

    A project of his own, i don't know what, and i doubt it he'll tell me why, even then, i probably wouldn't be allowed to discuss it.

    Lots of stuff is going on, and a news post has been written up, it's just being tuned up some.

    Don't worry kids, grab a teddy bear and repeat after me, it'll be ok, it'll be ok.

    I don't know what scares me more...

    I mean updates are cool, obviously, but Empires is already 'leik teh best mod ev4r!!11!!' so if there were no more releases, I'd still be happy.

    But with new people working on it, no offense to them, they could change it in some way that removes the special magic, y'know? It's like Fallout 3. No matter how hard they try, it'll never touch the originals because it's a different team working on it. Ya dig?

    It was the next step logically, as online FPS are all about enlarging your hypothetical penis online, he's taking it to ye grim olde worlde to instill peace all around the world (same sized penises really take the reason out of compensating size with guns, gas-guzzling cars and nuclear warheads).

    SNAP OUT OF IT

    REPEAT AFTER ME

    One of the big causes of slowdowns is spyware. Get this: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

    I'd rather tie my teddy bear to the hood of my new NF jeep :P

    Oh, I have faith, I just love my Empires and worry about it's future like a fretful parent!

    you guys realise for 2.2 release, we need a new trailer and a mega news release, so we qualify for ModDb spotlight? That'll get a tonne of players when we obvirously win it :p
