    1.08 was planned to just include new art, animations, and iron sights, but it actually takes a long time to complete all the new art.

    The two week turnaround was for the first five or so patches when the whole goal of patching was to fix lag and bugs. It was our plan all along to slow down around now to work on the big stuff that takes longer and requires more focus.

    psh its not unbalanced ^_^; only thing I can think of balance wise is nf barrack's being to tall, and nf's tanks>bren tanks

    Mabye they'll add an autobalance system like a majority of modded cs servers do.

    Damn dee... your sig's keep getting hotter. /me wipes brow.

    On topic...
    DON'T PESTER THE GREAT KRENZO! The more time he spends answering good questions the less time he has to make updates. Ya... art takes alot of time. Programing... ha... ohh a bug. hmm... 1+30= 20? oops... fixed there you go. But art is well.. art is artwork... it takes time to make it look like... well art. You gota caress it, make it shine with the love you have for it, and... and... /me better stop thinking of dee.

    I think the weapon balance on infantry side is almost there, just some small fixes to NF guns and it will be beautiful. There are still balance issues in the vehicle side, but if the reworked costs make an appearance on the next version, I think it will be beuatiful on that side too. :)

    So Krenzo... The planes aren't coming for next version?

    Bloody hell! I forgot. :p But the next update is still worth the wait. :p Iron sights, scout rifle fixed... mmm...

    And then there's the nightmare of engi SMGs turning into peashooters... Well time will tell what will happen with that, but it sure as hell gives me the creeps.

    still a decent question though - you could have done a NS style move and renumbered the next patch (oh its an important thing and its taken a couple of months to do so we're moving up to 5.9 instead of calling it 0.8 etc etc)

    speaking of which, i wonder what will be first, empires v.1 or ns source v.1 (if thats happening ever)

    They are going to do NS-S. They are selling that small game that he made to get funds to pay for working on NS-S. I would love to see some kinda update on that tho. Like what the diff is gana be besides looking better.

    I am sure however our 1.1 will come out way befor then. As they have a complete rewrite to do. They don't intend to port much over.

    Empires is at present my best game. I play only empires and rarely dod, cs, dystopia or other games. Empires is a good game with good ideas... but isnt completely or finished. To many bugs (hidden in the mountain), communication is to pedantically and to many time is ago to promise aircraft. Many players disappeared and becomes smaller and smaller. Same cheater destroy the community additionally . That is very unfortunate. (sry ... my english is bad)

    ... but i wait and hope ... and thx for the game!
