So true Agent S, but it's for a righteous cause, so "they" (Matrix and developer) need to respond, and tell us either game is done, or yes we will fix the "minor" bugs.

Even JMass liked the game, and did some wonderful modding which I still use. Someone was doing WWI stuff, but I haven't heard from him in awhile. He probably quit because of lack of support from the developers.


Happy New Year everyone, well almost everyone. [;)]

Oh yes I like it, I would to see a graphic improvement to have silhouettes instead of NATO symbols, not generic but different to cover every unit. Next year I'll search for pbem opponents, happy 2012! [:)]

A few more years of this complaining without a response and we could be like the lock-n-load forum[:D]

I think that when Matrix stops supporting a game, they should release the source code under GPL lic so if users want to fix or enhance the game they can. Doom 3 source was released but not the data files so you still need to buy the game to play it. I think Matrix might sell a few more older games they don't want to spend time/money on improving. Let the community do the work. Similar to mods for other games. Even a indie game company, Spider Web Software, release the code to Blades of Exile because he didn't want to spend the time updating it to work with newer operating systems.

Anyway, just a thought and I think everyone would win.

It will be interesting to see if Matrix will even reply.

The game only needs minor tweaks. Developers showed up briefly and then poof, gone. Just stand up and tell us you are done with the game, or yes we are working on it. From what I can tell no one has made personal attacks on anyone, if anything, we like the game, and want to see it get better.

Ok, that's my New Year complaint for the day. Take it away guys, raise your star count for a legitimate cause. [:D]

Of course some of you don't need it, but hey it's still for a good reason. Where's Junk2drive when you need him.

Mike, that would be great, but I have a feeling Matrix won't give the code up yet. So keep posting, til we hear something. Thanks!

Yep map looks much better with his changes, and it's awful nice of him to even bother with this game that has NO support. [;)]

(okay I'm gonna clog up the matrix servers with meaningless gibberish until they order a cease and desist)

(actually its klingon for where are the devs)
(and if I was klingon I would have no need for a withdrawl option anyways).

perhaps we need to setup a facebook page asking if anyone has seen michael cooney? [:D]

Please Matrix, could you tell us if the developers are going to show up and fix this game or is it done? Thanks for you time and consideration.
