Will TT be out, before playercount drops down to nearly zero?

Are the developers playing themselfes regulary to realize the reality?

Well, I dont think, that TT will increase playercount a lot.
But it would be nice to enjoy its features and due the auto-map-downloader may be some games on new or CP maps, before the game will die finally.

As everyone who plays daily should have realized, since the summer playercount dropps "dramatically" and also a lot of former regulars disappeared. Esp. on NS. There are weekends now with ~15 players in, a year before most WE games where full.

This time end of ren is rly near, only a core of players will remain soon.

Unless you plan on paying professional programmers for us, we have to do this in our free time. This means that we can only do so much...
And yes, we know that Renegade is losing players, we run servers our self. NS in this case isn't totally reliable measure, because of the Exodus incident.

Server owners are finally starting to realize that having 20 times more player slots than players is useless. i predict the number of servers will drop even more and hope the remaining players will be concentrated in the remaining servers.

Still, it's important for TT to be released ASAP but nor we, nor them can really help in that.

am glad that others realized it too.

would have no problem to change and move the topic like this "what may the community do to react on loss of players?"

concentrate the remaining users in a few servers may a good idea.

and concerning NS/Exodus: both are very often nearly empty now.

It usually fills up around 11 - 5 EST, when its nearly the weekend. As for the other days, I blame Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

That is indeed the right question to ask. But as Goztow already mentioned; nor we, nor them can really help in that.

However, maybe TT could give an update again about the procedures. I think we have not heard that much on the process in the past 2 (?) months...

There's currently around 50 public servers for Renegade. This disregards passworded servers. In other words: it's still way too much for the amount of active players.

I second that.

Cut the patch in 2. Release something now, add another patch later.

They've said it before and they'll say it again

They can't split it, everything is interconnected in one way or another. Just let them do their thing, it's all volunteer work as it is. It will be done when it's done.

It's not like our opinions matter here at all, but if they did I would vote that everyone calm down and wait it out. I'd rather have a good solid TT patch than one that's rushed or split or faulty. And if playercounts drop to zero and Renegade finally "dies" as has been predicted since like 2006...then it's time finally came.

If the autodownloader allows the player to download custom models that are in the server, i will be more than happy to make a mod server for ren Razz

The point is if playercount
drops to zero all your coding
(and what all of your team done for it) was useless.

I think you need a Project manager,
who is managing the full thing of TT...

Other Question:
Can you tell us who is still active for the project?

Don't split the patch in 2.

We want a patch that fixes renegade bugs instead of adding even more bugs Razz

Because when you release a non-finished patch thats probably what's gonna happen Wink

It wasn't a critic. And actually the release of our mod as a public beta DEPENDS of TT and Script 4.0. ...
So why do you say that? You know we use a beta version of what TT does.
