Hey guys There is something that needs to be fixed when beta is done. And its the soldiers. Now with 1.5 when you are in a spot where you cannot hit someone, and you click on them, your man moves to where he can hit them.
In the past if you couldnt hit them he wouldnt move. I believe that is far more prudent.
People used to call it a hill bug.........it wasnt a bug it was the way it should be, and thats for sure.
Lemme know how you feel about this and why you changed it. I dont really know shit about how you change these things......so I am not sure what all is affected with the change. I play 80 percent wwII and I gotta say, that for wwII that change needs to go back please.

If that's how you want to do it Acheron you little princess....go call up Take 2 Games, get the source code from them, code the whole thing yourself, find a webhost, host it, let people download and play it. If you arent about to do that...shut the fuck up.

Hey bitches!
I don't suppose many of you noticed but when 1.4 was being publicly tested it had plenty of bugs too (guess you didn't bother to help test huh?). In the end 1.4 was fine for 99% of the community.
You also point out 'OMFG GAY n00b MAGMA mAKEz NeW BuGs RETARDS £$&%& etc etc'. Newsflash guys! This is the reason this is a beta and not a final product. Hell I could imagine the state of the community if no one had downloaded the 1.5 beta, not found most of the bugs and then bitched when a bug riddled 1.5 final was released.
Also sinc its a beta, who the hell will be playing on this version in a months time? See, the state of the beta means jack shit if the final product is 'OMFG GUD I <3 MAGMA'
However I'm not a big Magma fan and I got a few questions.
1. If this had been privately tested for months beforehand why or how did so many fairly obvious bugs get through the so called net?
2. Was it not a possibility to add the features that 1.5 has but keep fairly true to 1.4 (1.4.5 is what im driving at)
3. £*"^(^"%(" WORK ON M3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can try to answer your first question, Baron. As a beta tester, I was expected to play all facets of the game, and see wherever a problem or bug pops up. Simply put, I don't have much time to play myth, and I know many other people had similar issues as me. When I was testing the earlier, private betas, there were normally 40 or so people that would have it. And I would rarely find more than 5 people using the same beta as me. Quite often I would be lucky if I got 3 people to beta test with. Imagine the Myth community consisting of 40 people, and then thinking how hard it'd be to miss bugs. I can only do so much, and I've at least tried to help with the testing.
Working on a private beta is not glamarous, and it has frayed my patience, at times. But it's something that had to be done.
About Myth 3, the crew here is working hard to get Myth II version 1.5 out ASAP. They obviously think it's more important to finish one task, and THEN start another; rather than working on two, very labor intensive, projects at once.

Heh if you thought having a group of 40 ppl was tough, you should try getting a game of m3 going 
Oh and yeah, make 1.5 good for m2 and all, it's just been so many months since anything really happened on the m3 scene.

lol! At least you can empathize with me, since I rarely know of any, nevermind see, Myth 3 players. I hope to magically find my lost Myth 3 CD one day, and then I can give that sucker a swing. Or I could pity my local software store, and snag a copy of Myth 3 from the bargain bin.

On the contrary, I'd say you know jackshit compared to Graydon, since Gray has seen the release candidate for public beta #2, and you have not. Hence, Gray is in a much better position to talk about the improved quality of public beta #2 than you are.
But soon that will change and Public Beta #2 will be released, and then you will be on even footing again, and you might even have some ground to stand on with your incessant bitching, but I suspect things will be better than you expect, even if they aren't "perfect".

hilarious. Greydon has through his posts proved to be a totally coop n00b.- He claimed 1.5 beta was almost perfect as well.. He was not able to discover bugs because he is a crappy coop player- I accept that some people find solo fun however they are not to judge such products as this as well. If u combine this with retard coders well then u got a really fucked up product dude.
