The Best way from alpha to final release.

[terrorro 7]

K, i belive updates r going in a rong way. Dev should make Alpha playable then add things like:

-  M9130 bayonete can open cans  - wtf we have way to many things to open a can, i belive nobody was in a death situation beacouse he was unable to open a can with his bayonete);

-  Private and  regular-hardcore public hive -   Why we need that now when  Alpha got some critical gameplay issue

 

 

Devs should learn from  unknownWorlds and how they develop NS2 from Alpha to final release: Fix -> balance -> add content.

 

 

i whant to see in future updates: add delay to exit game and make an exit game penaltiy  a fix for teleporting through walls, fix zombies,  fix items respawn so no need for server restart.. remove items that do nothing in this state of game. 

 

 Pls make a sense to play Alpha, not just  Go to Airfield and have fun :)

server have to restart. that will never change

Some of these critical flaws are quite difficult to fix- they'll take time and these updates are just fillers from suggestions, this is very early in the alpha, so give them time.

The bayonet thingy is simply copying a script and linking it to an item... so that could be done in a relative short time.

Private hives are in high demand plus the owners of the hive can mod (a little) in their own server, which can lead to improvements.

yes but not every 1-2 hours,  24h  will be k.

Now the basics of gun, food and drink mechanics are already in the game I suspect it's pretty easy to modify/add existing content within those realms of the mechanics. Probably make an xml file for each object and tie it to a model(s) and texture(s) and that's more or less done.

 

Other stuff involving adding mechanics, changing AI, changing server architecture takes longer - and is probably done by entirely different members of the dev team.

true, but focus on many things in the same time is fail, beacouse adding more things will break few things, than u loose time to see what  is rong.
