A question about A NEXT WitP?

Post by Venividivici10044 »

I'll preface by stating that if this is deemed unworthy, by all means to the thread. I do pose a serious question.

?Does the Matrix design team have any thoughts about the next WitP. I've seen quite a few posts regarding things that cannot be upgraded due to complete code re-writes. The obvious question follows - Any plans for a future sequel with a COMPLETE re-write of the code? Obviously this project would take years to see the light of day, so nothing expected. Just a curiosity question hoping for an answer!

Thanks!!!
I play and post for fun...nothing stated ever carries with it the thought to irritate. If something does...privately PM and I will review.

Good question! Maybe right now while the team are scrambling to get patch 2 completed is not the very best time to ask it! But a good question even so. I too will wait for the answer....

No more WitP. I think I'll go start a Facebook group about it.

There's a rumor (I'm starting it right now in this post) that the AE team is putting together a plan for a new WITP. Only developers with children will take part, because the project will span multiple lifetimes.

Further information indicates that because of the addictive nature of WITP & AE, the next generation will be called 'New Coke'.

Sounds just like you Nik..., get busted for indecent exposure and solicitation and end up the richest "shower queen" in the county lock-up! Just remember..., "Don't drop the soap!" [:D][:D][:D]

There's a stack of notes on LCU operations models at the WitP scale on my desk at home, and one of my draft grant proposals is looking at intelligent game AI. I have three students working on exploratory research projects that will feed into the intelligent game AI proposal.
