Waiting is the hardest part.

i just spoke with Marweas for a few mins in IRC...and for those saying just another empty promise...keep in mind he has done VERY well in the past of backing up what he has said he was trying to make happen

the fact that a week ago he didnt have a go on this project...and now he does is more than promising for the hope of another patch for T2

some people's interest in T2 may or may not be there...however many still DO like the game so this is good news for all of them...frankly alot of my personal interest has turned to Legends recently...but Sierra finaly putting something in the works that may give us another patch brings back a little bith of faith in them
 
Marweas, thanks for the update/progress report?

The fact that you bother to come here and drop us a line at all is admirable. You often get flamed mercilessly when you do.(self included once or twice...) yet you still show up. Thanks man, a new patch would be heaven sent.

Eh.

That sounds like a big "Sierra wants nothing more to do with this dog" than anything else.

Eh.

If that was the case, they wouldn't have signed off on allowing the contract in the first place.
 
pessimism is not a good thing.
At least we have hope... it kept a lot of folks alive through much worse than not having a patch, and it will be enough for me to endure another few months of shitty pubs with total morons.
I am totally illiterate.

I know it's been a rough couple of weeks. The recent retirement of some notable teams and individuals from T2 was a disappointment to many including myself. The DoS attack on the authorization servers last week didn't make anybody's day either. The bug problems, the gameplay issues, the quitting and complaining – they’re enough to make anyone throw in their towel. Some even said the end was at hand.

But it’s not.

Today Sierra stepped up and reaffirmed its commitment to the Tribes brand, and to their customers. The Tribes team received a go-ahead on a proposal that among other things includes a plan for addressing the remaining critical issues with Tribes 2. We want to eliminate UE’s, improve FPS, nerf the ELF a little, and fix other problems that prevent people from playing their game. There is more in the works that will make Tribers happy, but I know you’re not big on hype so we’ll get there when we get there.

Please understand that while this bodes very well for all of us, IT’S NOT YET A PROMISE OF A PATCH. I cannot commit to that until we sign a contract with the developer. It is still possible for the negotiations to go south or some other obstacle to arise. I’ve promised to play straight with you and this is how it is.

I don’t have an estimate for how long the negotiations and signing will take, but we’re looking for a speedy turn-around. I will update as I can given the typical restrictions during a contract negotiation.

I will now employ WSBN's *new* Sierra-to-English translator for everyone, the one we had custom made so we can bring the gaming public the real scoop on internet gaming.


Here we go!


(Hope this thing works)
