A Plea To Optec, Doca And Detektor

posted on May 15th, 2005, 6:11 pm

I took a break from this website right after the last update was presented. I come back to, on the 15th of May, the same update.

Guys, this project is your baby, and from another post, a sort of training for what you want to do for a career. But this project has been sitting in 2nd beta since October of 2003(if I am not mistaken).

That is why I am asking for you guys, for the sake of the project, to seriously bring other people on board to help. This mod, which I believe will be a game itself when finished, is a big undertaking. You guys need help.

For example, one of the other games I started to play was Battle for Middle Earth, which turned out to be a bad game. But there is a conversion called the Rhovanion
Alliance that I believe will change all that. They already have all sorts of work done on it in a short amount of time. The reason? They have close to 15 people on the team.

This community totally understands that real life comes first. I understand what you are going through because I am in the same situations with school, family, and work. That is why you need help to make your dream a reality. There are all sorts of fanboys on this website who would love to help this project not collapse and die. And it will, not because there isn't any interest in it, but because it is not moving forward.

If this has been talked about before, then I am sorry. But seriously FO team, think about it.

How do u know there is no progress, do u have acces to their PC or something . There has been no newspost that is true, and god knows I would like to see another new dominion battleship there , BUT if they dont write it it doesnt mean that there is no progress, just that they arent showing it to us


Also seeing how optec has become A LOT more active on the forums lately maybe he has the spare time now he needed to continue working

i am sure they are doing their best, and that they have done a whole bunch of things since B2 so give them time to release it, but i would have to agree, that it is good for moral if once in a while something new would be posted on the news

Black Baron,

I'm not saying there isn't any progress, I'm sure they have done something on it, I'm saying FO isn't moving foward as probably the team wants it to. They have admitted themselves that there have been hang ups with the process which has delayed the project.

All I am saying is that the project would be a lot easier on the people working on it if there were more on the team. I don't think anyone could disagree with me on that.

true true... but well, the more ppl working on it, the problems between the modding team members can happen, cause optec, doca n detek got their own ideas how it should lookalike n everything.
i think thats why they keep it so small. i mean FO is well known in the A2 modding scene, so i dont think it would be that a problem to get ppl into help them
