There will be patch 1.04 in about two weeks. Then there won't be another patch until 2010 at the earliest? Did I get that right?

Depends on real life, time and the other offerings we are working on.

Campaign Series Modern Wars: Volume I and Modern Wars: Volume II are taking priority after the 1.04 UPDATE release.

Modern Wars: Volume I will include Divided Ground and Vietnam.

And a lot of work, hence the delay in the 1.05 UPDATE.

it is a family forum, if you take into consideration there are no women and no one probably under the age of 35. Other then that fact, this is the first thing you have said that i agree with.

Barker, let me start by saying that i can certainly appreciate your frustration. This game has turned into a pet project to many of us over the years. Like someone who rebuilds a car from the ground up we constantly tweak and poke it to make it better , we have come to love it even with its flaws, even though it is simply a game with little cartoon tanks moving around a computer screen. Having said that i cant help but feel you are holding jason personally repsonsable for everything in the game that you dont like. I think Jason is just a guy, like the rest of us that is simply doing the best he can in the little to no free time he has to make a game thats pretty damn good allready, better. This was just what i see, and could definatly be wrong, but lets everybody take a breath...

Andy, In the old talonsoft game there was a set of designers that did just that up to korea 1953 europe and included the chinese. This little mod was called Hot War, Craig Foster, Glenn Saunders and others created that. This was in 2001. It was cool because the Whermact fight besides the Brits and US against the Eastern Block. Great Fun. Matter of fact if you have the old talonsoft game you can get the update.

No problem. I just wanted to make sure I understood the schedule. If vol 1 stays divided ground and nam you can count on a sale here for sure.
