Title: So, what do they do after the smoke clears?
Post by: Wingnutt on June 29, 2009, 04:10:34 PM
ok, so You release an update, and Im sure for the first couple of days its pretty frantic.. fixing reported bugs, addressing the people spazzing out on the boards, making all the tweaks and adjustments... etc etc.. and then..eventually.. its pretty much "good to go"..  and things are running smoothly again.. the upgrade is complete. 

how do You folks Celebrate?

Is there an office party? midget tossing? Some sort of bizarre ritualistic chanting? Skuzzy put on a giant pizza costume and everyone chases him with oversized bread sticks?

Inquiring minds want to know.

You do know that there's a female modeling agency across the parking lot from HTC HQ, right? At least there was when they moved in.

Skuzzy will probably disappear into his office (closet) and play with hardware while he tries to forget about the backlog of support emails.

HT most likely will take his RV-8 for a ride, flinging it across the sky. Hopefully after that goes home to Mrs HT.

Pyro, sorry but who ever really understood pyro? Anyone have a clue?
(sorry pryo,I just couldn't resist)

Superfly and Waffle will probably go out for beers, and end up doodling on their napkins.
(Market Garden, defendable bridges, destroyable, with small towns, strong points, etc would be good)

The new release is on top of other normal day to day operations. When the release is out work continues.


More than likely they'll go get a drink of water or a cup of joe and head back to the office.

Mrs HT. would be in the back seat. She loves aero.

Seriously we do not really celebrate, we just go on to start the next version, or the next thing on the list we have been wanting to do, but have been holding off on because of the need to finish the current version before starting on the next thing we want to put in the game.

Why we really do not celebrate, here is my current real list that we work from from the programing side, most of these will be complete before we are finished with the current version, but the list always grows and is never complete. This list is only items that must be done, the list of items I want to do in my head is never ending. So there never is a feeling of being finished, and hence no reason to really celebrate.

Is 16 crossed out or were you just trying to get the pen to work? That sounds cool.

# 3 Might mean the pilot is able to give and then execute a bail command for everyone in the plane. Might come in handy especially in troop carrying GV's. Then again it might mean something totally different.


#4  can capture Boxes of Field ?


#10 looks like,  Fix Memory Text Logging In... might be a memory fix for the text buffer that prevents erasing of channels after typing something in there which causes your channels to be set back to default ALL position upon entering an arena.


#18 looks like  PT Boat Drop Three Shore....hummmm, interesting but probably not what it says.

No i think what is being worked on in #3 is when you are a Gunner/Observer for someone and they bail, you are caught in the bug where you go underground, etc... and all you can do is "Alt f4" out and re-enter arena.
