While everyone is impressed with stunning screenshots that have been posted, it has whetted our appetites and leaves us wanting more. I haven't visited this site for months due to lack of news and suspicions that it would never be released. And I was an avid even rabid gamer of BB...
So how about releasing the internal beta as a taster of the full game? It must be in a reasonable state to be able to be played. I hope I speak for many when I say that even a buggy unfinished beta is worth playing until the real games comes along. Dont want to be patronising but it seems a bit strange that the team broke up and stalled for 4 months just because some wanted to release stuff and others didn't. I mean, come on guys, you sound like you are married!!! lol. Hope this hasn't come across as whinging but I LOVE the whole concept of what you done and am a big fan. Thanks |

Well, unlike SNIPER-X stated in the media topic it was due to the lack of an active coder that the project was stalled. The coder back then ran into some problems and then later just disappeared without saying anything (after some weeks of optimistic talk).
It actually looked quite good in the begining but apparently he couldn't cope with the tasks at hand. However, we have now found three new coders for the BB:S team which should be enough to get things going again. Unfortunately they have to write large portions of the code again since the concept used for creating zombies was not suited for this mod. We hope that they'll be able to motivate the rest of the team with their work, so you guys will get new media soon  -------------------- The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all. - Ecclesiastes IX. 11.

A beta with a few levels is basically just the mod anyway.

Okay, people, stop bugging the devs for betas or demos or more media - it'll come when it comes.

That's what I was saying. I beta with a few levels is still the mod. So there's no point in asking for it.  This post has been edited by QReaper on November 11, 2006 02:24 am |
