grow up

grow up

please do not tell me to grow up my friend
I have modders constantly asking me to add their maps to my server which I do as soon as possible. I love this game and have done since RO1. Friday night is the start of the weekend and is probably the most popular night in RO so to do an update/reverse/and update on the most popular night is a crime against the game itself

feel free to diss my post all you want but the steam messages I have had moaning about this update is unreal

I apologise to the people who visit my server but custom maps will not be available until.............TWI you tell me :D

calm down

calm down

THENS - I dont want to turn this into a personal spam fest - add me to steam friends if you wish to chat :D

but people will tell you I am probably the most placid person in the game.


then ask the 200 friends I have that are steam messaging me asking me why the f*ck they cannot play/download because its SO SLOW and then when they get in its stock maps only.

answers on a postcard -
start your message with - complete balls up
so I know which competition it is:(

There was a client/server update today, but the update broke all the custom maps, so TWI decided to roll the game back to before the update.
That's why you updated twice.

Thanks man, but why does it keep saying "steam working" and the download status is "unpacking" ??? Its been like this for about 30 minutes now and for some reason everytime ro2 updates on steam my pc just starts freezing even tough during the process my ram is only beeing used 1gb out of 8gb and cpu usage is like 20%

Maybe just hold tight on re-implementing any patch until TWI has a chance to include more bug fixes, etc. Simply adding a Team Full indicator isnt really worth the download/update and re-tooling all the custom maps for the new "version". If the plan is to ignore HOS until you release RS, then just leave it be then (well, at least simply fix the forgive system and flying bodies caused by the NOV patch) and just put HOS in a holding pattern.

I scratch my head every time a new patch comes out. Why dont you fix stuff that has been around for ages? My tank still cant drive over a telephonepole on the ground. So much for "German engineering!". Reloadanimations not showing, scoreboard not showing, jumping over obstacles getting aborted, proper ranks not showing and gazillions of other things...

So I'm guessing (hoping) that the plan for this and any future patches will be that you don't have to recook custom maps?

Only asking because I noticed that several of the last patches required it.

I had wrote on another part of the forum what must be patched. Every
day i encounter at least one bug.

But don`t know what`s happening. RO2 is now unplayable for me.
It`s very slugish. :confused:

What about the bugs with tank personel that is unable to spawn? I am really disappointed to see it's not in the changelog...
Is TWI even aware of the spawn problems for tankers?

I like RO2, it's an ambitious project, but RO1 was much more stable. At least you could spawn and get in and out of tanks there...

Chill Shady, once the servers/client have been rolled back to the previous version,the custom maps should work again,just be grateful the mistake will have been fixed so quickly BEFORE the weekend.

:cool: Agreed. We've been through this numerous times. As uncomfortable as it might be, we all know the drill. Server admins will keep as many maps going as possible, and the Devs, I'm sure, will deal with updates in good time. Every patch improves the game and keep in mind that Tripwire is paying salaries to continue developing their product.
