When Will 1.03 become Official?

Time of Fury spans the whole war in Europe and gives players the opportunity to control all types of units, ground, air and naval. Not only that, each player will be able to pick a single country or selection of countries and fight his way against either the AI or in multiplayer in hotseat or Play by E-Mail. This innovative multiplayer feature will give player the chance to fight bigger scenarios against many opponents, giving the game a strategic angle that has no equal in the market. The game uses Slitherine’s revolutionary PBEM++ server system.

When Will 1.03 become Official?

Post by Omnius »

I'm wondering when the 1.03 beta patch will become official? I hope it's soon since I see that Strategic War in Europe just had a new patch go to Matrix for official release. I want to start a new game and want to wait until 1.03 becomes official. I'd just like a ballpark estimate for planbning purposes.

We are currently dealing with the bugs in Time of Fury so the pach can be ready any day. I'm hoping we will be ready to deliver it in next week.

doomtrader,
Awesome! I'll wait for the offical update as I had a problem getting the 1.03v3 patch to work with my 1.03 beta 1 game I started. I'm going to enjoy the new 1.07 SWiE pre-official patch you just released today while I wait for an official ToF update.

Are you going to include some kind of end the USSR/Finnish war historically event like Strategic War in Europe has for the 1939 scenario? That should be fixed so that the Soviet AI doesn't get it's War Economy increased ahistorically just because it stays at perpetual war with Finland and can't stop it unless it conquers Finland. Also as a human playing the USSR I would "game" the situation to stomp on Finland until I reach Turku, then just almost surround it and let Finland hang on while I enjoy my increasing WE. Or play Finland on human against the Soviet AI and just delete every unit and let the Soviet AI roll in easily to conquer Finland the sooner the better, well hopefully it would do so but I'd probably have to provoke a response by moving into the USSR first.

Oh yeah I'm going to enjoy that new 1945 scenario you did for SWiE. Oh how I wish you could give us a similar scenario for ToF, that would be totally awesome and perhaps the best scenario for ToF just as it's my most favorite of SWiE.

Winter War solution in ToF is much more sophisticated in my opinion than the one in SWiE.
However I can take a look at this and see what could be done.

That would be a lot of work, so I would prefer to release such monster as a stand alone game.

Good news. I have been using the Beta for a while and it appears pretty stable. There have been a few crash to desktop events but the game recovered so as glitches go pretty minor.

Thanks for another upgrade [:D]

Numdydar, we are fixing the supply system.


However when I look int o the back it seems that was a very bad decision. It took as huge amount of time to change it, and after that it brought us a lot of bugs, causing to postpone the works not only on this game. In revard we get a rather small impact on the gameplay for most of the players.

I was just messing with you. Take all the time you need [:)].

I am definately one of the people that will REALLY appriciate the effort to get the supply system reworked as that was one of my biggest complaints in the game. So whatever you do I know will be better than what it was in the base game (in my opnion anyway [:)])

Numdydar, the decision was taken and we are not able (and willing) to revert it

Well I am confused totally now. If I understand you correctly, you WERE going to address the supply issue, but because of the difficulty in doing so, you changed your minds and are NOT going to do anything with supply. Is this correct?

The supply system in ToF 1.00 was different than the one used in current patches, it's especially apparent in Africa.

Oh good. As I have not played since the 1.0 version, I was unaware of these changes so I am really looking forward to seeing how they work and the new patch :)

Looks like we have finished improving the supply system, and now moved to check the stability of the game.

We have skipped to 1.04, it's easier for intrnal versioning.
