this is serious if anyone at runestorm is hearing this you should know that hedsteem is abadoning Ut2004 servers that also mean BW! now this is serious this mean that you should also be in progress of working on a transfer to UT3 seriously hedsteem is your biggest supporter and truth be told what wup says is final so this a reminder to any of the RS team that you should be working on progress to a transfer to UT3 so i hate to say it but if Hedsteems Abadoning Ut04 and BW so will i

Most people do not play online, therefor most people do not play BW online. Rune Storm has said nothing about abandoning ut2004 yet, it is to soon. I myself play offline, Runestorm will transfer over when there is no point in working on BW2004...... They havnt even gotten the TC out(which im pretty sure they said something about for ut2004, i think...). The only thing they could really do right now is work on new content and practice their skills that will contribute to the progress of BW3. |

The devs will port BW to UE3 when they are ready.... Considering it's not even out yet, that's still a long way away... The devs have their plan for the future, and they will stick to it. I suspect UT2k4 will be around for a long while still, it's not going to disapear overnight... I'm sure hedsteem has their plans and reasons for going that route. Hedsteem is a big supporter of BW, but not the only one and certainly not the biggest, BW has quite a lot of people playing it! People come and people go...this will not make the devs work faster

UT3 is not the future of the futures in RS's schedule, but yes, they will port BW some day. |

i swear you guys are blind you cant make a mod thrive off of instant action, sure if you have a strong single player with replay value you can live off of that but still 2.1 i say wont be enough. how you going to live , off Kaboodles servers? heck no he cowers in his own shadow at the mere sight of most if not all the weapons and continualy whines about how unfair some of the weapons are, Kabs servers are i say a shame to the BW community, the bots can't serve as actual players they only serve a cannon fodder. If you wish to advance you must keep a steady multiplayer factor if you turn your back on the multiplayer communtiy you wind up screwing with your own mod  and if you just focus on instant action you forget about multiplayer, then you forget about bugs then slowly the mod dies off because they forgot one key aspect to true mods like this multiplayer.

Dark, calm down, just because you won't be able to play on heedstem servers any more doesn't mean that BW on UT2k4 is dead, they are even working on stuff for it as we speak (well maybe not literally now, but you get the point). |

Calm down? Calm down? No i'm not done with this, this is not a rant, this is a stated fact a mod cant live off of single player alone theres no point in just ignoring that you just lost the Hedsteem community you just lost a key factor to you mod multiplayer and nothing will compare to the fun people have on hedsteem, small servers suck and im not going to just sit playing instant action, no i want to crush my enemies online, but well you just ignore multiplayer and focus on instant action..... its pointless living off instant action just proves the people who download it and just play instant action only have no lives, and id prefur playing multiplayer where i can actualy interact with people, besides here outside and these forums, seriously why the heck im i even talking about this |

Well, i hope you know that until 1.75 (really) BW wasn't played online (bad bugs), and guess what Dark, the mod survived to release a 2.0 and maybe even a patch. Just because you live off of mulitplayer doesn't mean that everyone else has to fallow, just because a main server of BW is going down doesn't mean the mod is dead. All it means is that some folks won't get to play online as much. So if i'm going to go by what you said, I have no life whatsoever because i play BW in Instant Action, so does that mean X also doesn't have a life, does that mean ALL of us IA players are lifeless pieces of crap? No, it doesn't mean that. I play IA cause its fun and its my preference, some people like X can't even play online due to poor internet connections. Its all a matter of preference Dark, did you know that the vast majority of UT2k4 players play OFFLINE. OMG, they must be soulless zombies or something as well. And no, you ARE ranting Dark, ranting on a subject that has no reason to be ranted on. Your making the HedStem community seem like assholes if all of them are like you Dark. Dark, i mean this in the nicest possible way... grow up. |

Playing instant action or multiplayer; both parties have good gaming moments. You seem to ignore the fact that everyone's situation and interest is different. Your playing style is not universal. And BW can easily survive with SP only, since thousands of people play that way, while only 250 - 500 play on Hedsteem daily. True, it would damage the community if Hedsteem went away, but the community would survive it. I'm not allowed to tell you what RuneStorm are planning next, but I can safely say that there is no future in UT3 in comparison. |

Oh, the drama. This reminds me of some interesting debates on MUD's between those who live by PK and those who prefer non-PK. A plague on both your houses (-Shakespeare)! Speaking of having no life, gotta get to my group meeting to work on our embedded system. Enjoy the game. |

Selfish? Selfish? so that what you think of me now eh? i'm concerned that you just think that single player is the core of this mod now thats BS if you belive that advancing this mod isnt going to do anygood then that justt proves that this whole commnity is selfish and wish to isolate themselfs..... keeping single player ut04 only is going to kill this mod so what you play it i play it but you know once UT3 comes out all of this work is meaningless |

No, SP isn't the core, and neither is hedsteem. Both combined are. But like with dualcore processors, they can function with only one core. You are way overreacting anyway. Even if hedsteem leaves BW behind when migrating to UT3, BW will come to UT3 eventually, just a matter of time. Since most of the regulars on these forums play offline as well as online, the time without hedsteem won't do significant damage to this particular community. Sit down, breath in, breath out; relax. |

Uh... *fires gun in topic, no one notices* Anyways... there are also some people who just can't play UT3 when that game comes out, so those people would then be stuck with no BW at all after UT3 comes out. |

This mod will be dead before it reaches UT3 simple as that |

| Post subject: | BW needs to focus on the future ,UT3 |
OCAdam, they'd have BW, but would be stuck with a BW version that is never updated. UT3 isn't that demanding anyway, you need a really bad PC to not be able to play it at all. And Darkonxy, stop this panic bullshit, you know very well that the BW community will stay alive as long as this website is not taken offline. This place is full of fans of the mod that will follow the developers through hell and back, you are apparently not one of them. |

This isn't about a few peoples opinions, its about the best for the mod as a whole. Stopping production on the mod that isn't even complete yet(BW2004) is not the way to go just so a little work on some BW3 models, graphics, and maps can be made. Porting most of the code to UE3 shouldn't be that hard really(it is the same engine, just a different version), all of the work from BW2004 will contribute to the progress of BW3(so this "sp mod" will not be in fact "meaningless" The developers aren't stupid, I'm sure they have every thing planned out. The world isnt coming to an end, chill out. There are bigger things to worry about besides video games. what the heck is wrong with your previous posts, get a hobby or something..... (the mod will be dead before ut3, your answer is NO. quite the opposite....) |

Jeez, did something crawl up your butt today Dark? No, BW will easily survive without going instantly to UT3, remeber dark, the devs don't have computers powerful enough to run UT3, if you really want to make a difference instead of annoying us with retarded babble (seriously, read what your saying), go and donate money to RS so that they can afford a system to run UT3 sooner.

It's not that simple James, but it is indeed little work compared to what they'd need to do if they went with a completely different engine. |

BW will be stronger as ever in UT3. I assume RS will update the models and skins to reflect the new graphical features as well as the engine's ability to render very sharp models & textures. Not to mention that UE3 will likely have an audio subsystem that isn't a piece of crap. |

not necessarily.... that would mean leaving ut2004 people in the dark to spend more time working on a project for a game thats not even out yet. |
