Was it supposed to be this month or next month_ I'm sure I heard something this month but it looks like next month.

They said approximately 2 weeks from the heat sink patch if my memory serves me.

I hope the next patch will be soon. They are some things urgently needed like Autobalance which take care about the Player count on each Team while the Match is running. This is a primal Feature in every fps Game since 20 years. So why not in Hawken _ 6 vs 3 or 6 vs 2 time wasting matches should be eliminated.

Hello lovely thread... I made a similar post a little while ago and I'll put some of what I said here:

We absolutely admit that we've been a tad on the quiet side but there are reasons for that and we aren't intentionally avoiding people by any means. Time just seems to fly by. Where does the time go_ Right now we have lots of people working really really hard at the studio on our next update and it's a big one. It's not like previous ones where we introduce a new map... or a new mech... some balance tweaks... It has some big changes and new big pieces of functionality that everyone's been desiring.

I will be working to try and tease some details over the next week or so... hang in there. We're taking a bit longer than we usually do because of the scope of this change. We are NOT intending to have these large gaps in updates after this one, but some of these changes are big improvements that we needed the time to get done. Sometimes to create... you must first destroy and that meant actually breaking our primary development stream resulting in a limitation of what we could patch without taking significant resources away from new development.

We'll have more information ASAP. Thanks everyone!

I bet you and Scraps are sitting there laughing evilly as you read the many "throw us a bone post"  while mentally tormenting us with the waiting game and watching us as we fight for our lives on the battle fields.



Now here is the real question. Which one is the leader of Prosk and who leads Sentium.

Funny.

But the information i got from Hughes is to me way more valuable than an ETA. I appreciate his recent efforts at communication.

Keep them coming.

I miss nothing!

Actually I do have an ETA... a very specific date we're targeting right now but we aren't ready to say what that date is yet. Every morning I update the number of days remaining until code lock on the big whiteboard for all to see. We haven't refrained from sharing for any secret huge unveiling special magical reasons, it's just that we aren't ready to specifically speak to what's going to be in the update quite yet. Is there a chance something planned might need a bit more time in the oven and we might speak prematurely_ Yes. That being said, as mentioned previously I do want to begin teasing and discussing what's coming up soon so let me see what I can do.

Really, I'm just happy you guys gave me double XP for my birthday, so I'm content to wait a couple more weeks. Take your time, Hughes.

Sounds like some major code-rewrites happening. Not a task to be taken lightly and definitely one that will make patching near impossible without creating wasted effort. Looking forward to it!

Hi Guys, especially [font=play, helvetica, arial, sans-serif][HWK]HUGHES[/font]^^

I don't want to appear too greedy and selfish, but how about tomorrow for release-date_ It's my 50th Birthday!!!
If that's not a good reason...

Just kidding...not about B-day though.
Keep cooking the patch, keep simmering the Pilots, I'm happy with things as they are for the moment. Teasers are fine, but please keep a major detail for the patch itself
A patch is done, when it's done - that's a universal truth.

I've become a mighty fan of this game, even if it's still in Beta-status and I think the DEVs are doing a great job so far.

Best regards from Cologne

Ysen
