    What everyone is saying is the mod isn't in drive, but in park. Its not in reverse, but its not going anywhere soon until we fill it up with some gasoline. The bigger problem is we far away from the gas station, and we all need to get out and push our car to the station.
    The mod isn't changing or growing. Games are still playing,yes;but the mod itself isn't growing or devloping any further.
Why did the Devs left?

That is my biggest problem with the whole Dev burnout thing.  They are spending the time playing Conan when they could come back here, and probably finish 2.0 in a matter of a week or 2 if they put their nose to the grindstone.  Then they could take a break and come back to work on it when they werent burnt out.  As it stands though I am keeping my fingers crossed that it will come out still, at some point.

I say we bribe FL- with cheap hookers and beer, and distract his wife with a week long spa visit that has male strippers.

Its nice too see some things haven't changed, like Brads whining and doomsaying. Oh no, a time that most people aren't on and you are surprised vent is empty? Most of the mods entire life had fewer people on all day than we have now. Sure development has stopped, maybe permanently, but the mod is good and people are playing.

Its almost as if Brad is trying to push the devs into working by screaming the sky is falling and running around.

And if FL- wants to play Conan, let him. Most of you never donated a single $ and expect someone to work hard to give you something for free. I'm sure if everyone was willing to pay a $10 a month fee he'd have 2.0 done immediately =)

hrmm mabye its because dash has a family we need somone with no life, we need phil!



also brad does have a point, this mod is in park, but is it long before it goes in reverse? i mean sure new players come and go but i think that less and less new players are coming since the devs left, and a lot of people are leaving, its just the fact that dash was to slow and hardly got anything done, so when a year of work came around he just got sick of it, i mean i would too, , i understand why dash left but i don't understand why he wont give the codes to anyone, i mean we could actually get someone to get this mod going again instead of stalling

heres a novel idea, Stop speciulating, stop being jackasses and leave the 2.0 and the state of everythign alone. 

Play the game and enjoy and relax.  If r when they come abck, they will, if they don;t stay away from em and stop makin posts. 

I am sure if they look on the fourms and see more bullshit like this, its not gonna make them wanna return becasuse they remember why they got burnt out, Speculation and peopel talking out of there asses with no real information to speak of.

No.  Complaining makes the world go 'round.  After all, the wheel that never squeaks also never gets the grease. 

However, it is a very good point that this mod should be developed as fast as possible by whoever possible.  Dash wrote the code and made the initial mod, so it is his.  However, now that his code has created an entire community, some of whom have been playing for 2 years, it is a really bitch move for him to withhold it from them when he gets tired. This community has proved its dedication to the mod by staying around for so long; its not too much to ask Dash to reciprocate and allow the community he built to thrive.

The mod ain't dead but it's not going anywhere either.
That being said, a lot of the people here have some right to complain as well after investing countless hours (and or cashŕ into the project themselves. It's not just fl- & Ucross that brought the mod to where it is today. Just because they burn out (for reasons not related to the community mind you) doesn't mean they have to give everyone the finger. Some communication would've been in place, but that has never been this dev team's strongest point anyway.  Cool

If someone could teach me how to mod on vent I'd do it... I already know perl and C++ and I'm a quick learner.
My pc can't handle the map editor though but I always loved making maps before coh and wish I could.
