So is update 1.05 dead in the water or what?

[LoneWulf63]

If you have put the CS series behind you and have moved on, then why are you still here? I guess it gives you pleasure to complain.

[LoneWulf63]

And one other matter Deputy. I will take the new Combat Mission series over Squad Battles any day of the week. I have played both, and Combat Mission beats Squad Battles, hands down.

[Deputy]

Ahhhh...love that ignore list. [:D]

[MrRoadrunner]

Doh!

Where is the ostrich with it's head in the sand icon?

(Don't worry. I'm proud to be on his ignore list.)

[marcbarker]

Combat Missions is a great game......for battalion size battles it is great ...if ambitious generate a battle with regiment base.... CS seems as though with the promise of 1.05 is kind of like wrld in flames 20 years in the making and nothing produced for the public as a whole. Oh well Virginia the is no Sanat Clause...the clause being we promise we are from the IRS and here to help you

[LoneWulf63]

I really don't think that it is going to take 20 years for the 1.05 patch to come out, at least I hope it doesn't. I'd be pushing 80 years old if it did.[X(]

Hey Berto: [8D]

Can you throw us JTCS players some kind of "bone" on "approximate" time frame for the much anticipated 1.05 patch?

Are you looking at 6 months? 1 year? 2 years?, etc. for a possible release date? [&:]

A "new" 1.05 patch should breathe some life into the "old girl." [;)]

Would greatly appreciate some enlightenment here.

Thanks! [:D]

I hinted at that by writing

And more gain. By merging now, we have greater flexibility in our release schedules. (Hint, hint. [;)])

Among other considerations, the ability to advance the release schedule of 1.05 is one of the biggest reasons for my undertaking the CS/MW codebase merge described in my Coder Diary #4. For that reason, future post-1.05 patches should come out faster too.

How long do we all have to wait? It's not for me to decide. But it's assuredly a matter of months, not a year or more. That I think it's safe to say.

Now, that "tidbit" is very much appreciated! Thank you! [:)]

This is indeed good news, lets just hope a certain complainer doesn't get a whiff of it.

No idea who you are talking about, but we have heard optimistic predictions before. We are YEARS behind on this patch after it being on the back burner for some modern battles version that has never surfaced. Since it's still Matrix' call on it being released, I have little hope of it being sooner rather than later.

You still here, thought you had moved on to greener pastures new and left this all behind. Haven't you heard the phrase never look back or quit living in the past. [;)]

You don't understand what I am talking about? I don't think I could have been any more clear about what I said. All you do is put down the people that are working on the patch and other mods for JTCS, albeit in a sideways manner, but you still do. As for the modern version, it is you that does not know what he is talking about. Yeah I know, you aren't interested in it but that doesn't mean other JTCS players aren't, me included. So what if the 1.05 patch takes longer than you want it to. The rest of us have something you don't have, patience. If it takes another six months or even a year, so what? We can still play the 1.04 version. I don't think you have any idea how hard people like Jason are working on the patch or how dedicated they are when it comes to bettering one of the best platoon level computer wargames to ever come down the pike. You say you have moved on, well damn man, move on and do as Otto suggest....don't look back.

Chris.

And one other thing Deputy. All these patches are FREE!!!! Its not like you have spent any money on them. If you did, then I could see your complaint as being valid.

Nahhh...you folks love me too much and keep requesting I come back. Just can't live without me I guess. [:D]

Hey genius newb...have you EVER spent money on a patch??? If you did, you are newer than I thought.

[LoneWulf63]

On a patch no, on an upgrade yes (CM Battle for Normandy v2.0). Newb? Shows me your level of intelligence. I probably started playing wargames when you were still in diapers. BTW, what have you contributed to JTCS?

[Crossroads]

I may soon run out of popcorn.

Not yet though.
