Mates, seriously now... We're approaching the end of February and we still got no sign from OP. "Soon, soon, soon, SOON, SOON ! VERY SOON ! WAIT ! BE PATIENT !" 
. This starts to look like an issue when we bring our car to the service, they order the needed parts, and, once they have them, the car is still not done even after a few weeks (real situation) =)) .
CF1.8 development process

- Thread is marked as Resolved.

be patient and wait a couple of weeks more
cf 1.8 is not going to run away
-
I really don't understand why people continuously ask for the final release! OP never stated any date for the release of CF1.8 at least no fixed one.
A mod will be released when its finished. That means it has to go through several stages of development. Before its released there will be an alpha, beta, whatever version to verify the changes that were be made and to check whether they cause any problems. These tests are necessary so you all can play this mod without having big issues - coz then you mainly will harass the developer what crappy mod they release. So that this is not going to happen - you all must be patient.
Up to the release i prefer to read the this wiki to understand what it means to release a piece of software and some when will understand how its working.
OP releases the mod when its finished and the time has come. BTW so ya all may know - OP has something more to do than just sitting all day 25 hours a day to mod cf1.8 - and if you would not continuously ask about a release he would have more time to finish it
Thx for your patience. OP is doing his best - so be grateful and don't ask every now and then. And thx for your understanding.
-
let me put this short: it's either no release date, release when done or rush the release date, release unfinished product, Windows Vista.
Do I make myself clear?
-
Oh ok..........So when was the last time the server was full
-
"full" is relative, cos max player count can be raised/lowered any time
-
At times, I just wish we had Discovery's numbers...
But not their community, you guys are awful, but give me Crossfire over Discovery anyday. -
There's no need for that. I'm sure Discovery has a good group of people. It'd be nice to have more people by the way... but as-is there is a certain small-town feeling to this mod that is charming, too. Sometimes it's very refreshing to log on and recognize the character names of everybody playing. The number of people online and the quality of those players is always relative though. Gameplay is however good the players make it, and while the mod certainly helps its potential cannot be truly fufilled if the community does not live up to it. To mess with a JFK quote in a very lighthearted way, "Ask not what your OP can do for you; ask what you can do for your OP." Have I vaguely touched on every subject in the last couple of pages of posts now?

Granted, but s'hard to play on the server when it's nothing but 12 year olds flying battleships and screaming at you if you so much as fly within 12k of their special base.
They make me look like an angel.
Used to be a good server too... -
I am patient
. I have other games to play too... Crysis for example .Discovery is overplayed lol. They have 65 players most of the time
.
I saw we had ~30 players on CF1.7 a few weeks ago, and I had to retarget every 5 seconds in order to make my missiles/CDs to home into the "enemy" during pvp =)) . -

All SPs and OP are working hard to get that cleared - at least some of us are not playing just watching, discussing and testing all the day - OP tested and reorganized the Server (and he is doing this in his sparetime beside 1.8 ), it isn´t yet completly clear - but we are probably very near to a solution - stay calm please.Sorry for OT
-
Not so OT just a report:
During the mass PvP yesterday which involved at least 10 pilots - and may I add that this was in New Berlin - the missiles worked PERFECTLY, I've never hit so good with missiles in the last 2 weeks and others can state the same
So whoever did something keep it up

except the fanboys which visit other forums to say "Discovery is the best FL mod ever"... and when you ask them what other mods they know the answer is always "none"
and the mod is mainly based on the ideas and features of other mods... there are pretty cool discussions on the discovery forum and meanwhile also on moddb about which stuff can be taken from CF
but enough of the discovery critics... ive just made some very bad experiences with people (big mouths) from discovery (no offence @ cronik)None taken
I wish Microsoft never shutdown the globle server.

+1 cronik...
btw, i would like to make a comment on Disco forums (srry for the OT).
more than 1yr ago, i was already developing my mod (with many different aspects, btw). well, basicly i was just another newbie starting a mod, without any help (i mean, before being part of SWAT). so, i needed ship models (TLR was under many changes, so no downloads at that time), but i wasn't finding any which suited my needs. so, i saw disco, and, besides having played it and disliked, the custom models were neat (even though without sense. how they love RP and put nearly every faction with capitals? outcasts in battleships smokin' weed all the way... how they could build BS!? ok, srry) and i wanted few.
so, i proceeded to their forums to request if any1 had few to grant me the rights of use (i saw 1 day ago another guy with a similar request). basicly, every1 who replied there didn't respected me.
since then, i dunno what happens there... or not, i know... they're building a french house called Gallia... gr8... but there's no prob as their Gallia is very different from FL:EU's Gallia.
my 2 cents.
FW out. -
Lol I just noticed that they took concepts from other mods. So thats why the Unknown gate is called the "Monkey Docking Ring" in Discovery. That was from an old mod called the "Monkey Universe".
