Hedgehog Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Optimistic, more likely "Run!" Don't forget to leg it through the "Getaway Smokescreen". :biggrin: You know I've often wondered the effect one of those would have on a Chelsea Tractor. Quite dramatic, i'd imagine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ssnake Posted April 17, 2013 Members Share Posted April 17, 2013 A poll, related to LNoT.Please post your opinions about that specific issue over there, not here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 Can I request that all who have showed interest to date register their view (for or against) on that poll so I can make an informed decision as to whether this will proceed or not before too much work is done on:skinsbriefingsgraphicsstaff listsetc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenny Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Optimistic, more likely "Run!" Yeah, that like I learned it: Sgt.: so what do you do after pulling the trigger on the PzFst? Me.: I observe the shot? Sgt.: No you fool...you run like fuck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 Hopefully everybody here is aware of the potential clash of LNoT with the release date of Ver 3.0?If you aren't then please read here and vote:http://www.steelbeasts.com/sbforums/showthread.php?t=19053Now as I live in a world where contingency planning is the norm, what do we do if the product is released on say the 6th or 7th?Option 1: Scrap this LNoT as soon as that announcement is confirmed.This will save a bunch of people doing a bunch of work for something that will be either poorly attended or be disappointing because it doesn't have the new gear (or worse doesn't work because the 2.654 scenarios somehow break when opened in 3.0).As I mentioned in the poll thread, this does carry the risk though that we shut LNoT down based on a "early June" release date but then in "early June" Ssnake announces that due to some major issue, the release date is pushed back to say "early July".Such an announcement would probably be made just before the "early June" date and leave us no time to resurrect the LNoT package for the 8th.Option 2: Ask people to attend LNoT but delay their upgrading to 3.0 until afterwards.I guess there will be a devoted few who would do this (esp. as 3.0 with all the good will in the world will have faults and require 3.01 or something). But I suspect we would still have some who would be unable to join the 2.654 Server Session because they have inadvertantly updated to 3.0.Option 3: Run it as a 2.654 event, encourage people to buy 3.0 but install it in a different directory and use the 2.654 copy for LNoT.It also means that the 2.654 Server software would be ready whereas past experience suggests that the 3.0 Server software would come out some days after the client version.This is very workable (I think I have 12 or so different versions on my home machine that all work well with each other). It would require people to use a little care in the installation process and pick a new location for the ver 3.0 copy.Then post LNoT you can bin 2.654 or if 3.0 is really "broken" (hope not) you still have 2.654 on your machine to go on with while 3.0 is "fixed".Personally I prefer Option 3, but we'd need everybody here who has registered interest to date to follow it otherwise it wont work (or at least they would be excluded).Feedback? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacbat Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Personally, I don't think that SB 3.0 will be released before LNOT. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 Yes well there's always "Option 4". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango29 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Option 3. I'd simply use 2.654 for LNoT, then probably download 3.0 and install. Plus which, as Tac noted above, there's no guarantee of just when 3.0 will arrive... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marko Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Personally I prefer Option 3, but we'd need everybody here who has registered interest to date to follow it otherwise it wont work (or at least they would be excluded).Feedback?I Like option three.On reflection. it seems a little unfair for those who have no interest in joining LNoT.For the update release to be delayed.If all goes well and the update is released on the 8th.I would have done option 3 anyway.I don't have any issues using 2.6 for the eventAs you stated it will proberly run smoother on 2.6 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tac197 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Please delay the release until after the LNot. As a BG ANZAC Member we are really looking forward to being a part of an event based around our region and show it off to the rest of the SB community. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibsonm Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 I guess this is now a mute point? From here: http://www.steelbeasts.com/sbforums/showthread.php?p=232904#post232904 (post #12) I am very sorry, but the (nearly) unthinkable has happened: We discovered a serious issue mere days before the feature freeze that needs to be addressed, and it'll take four additional weeks to fix it. This is very unfortunate, but we figured that you would wait a month longer for SB Pro 3.0 rather than to get a half-baked SB Pro PE 2.95 instead.So, Independence Day it shall be! (That's July 4th, for you non-'murricans) Unless of course, he was joking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tango29 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Now, this will probably be a statement of the most excruciatingly blindingly obvious, but...I assume that we're still good to go for LNoT 8 Jun 13 with the current SB version. Nothing heard on this since 24 April, so thought I'd be the bobbing, weaving target...! :biggrin: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
