For those who haven't noticed, we are taking a break from Deathball after working more than 2 years non stop on it.
It's not dead, just our motivation is pretty down right now.
I can't tell when we'll get back into business.

But we've got a modeler, Vlad, working on new player models, he's doing good progress, and they look a lot better than what we have now. It will be up to Robert to put this stuff in the game then.

It was pretty dissapointing when we beta tested the new ball. Offline it all works so good, but online there were so many problems popping up, a big bunch of work to do, and no good feedback or anything, so not quite motivated. Anyway, don't know when Matt will be back into that stuff.

I do fear for DB's long-term future. I think DavidM hinted the break could be as long as 6 months.

Well TV enjoy your break, and come back ready to improve the best ever mod even further...

Well, feck.

I wish there was a way to recompile a 2.3a version to include the stats changes so we can continue to refine that part while TV is on sabbatical..

imo they should put the original ut characters in the game, then take the break \o/
Nah, well deserved break, i hope it wont be too long, and they work twice as good when they come back :>

Just this time, the "DB is dead" rumour, might actually be correct! :(

Well, its up to the community to keep this interesting, but tbh, if this break is idd 6months, then i fear DB will fade away.
It's up to the community to make this work now :o

Deathball will never die \o/

What? Makes a change from all of you saying it will, does it not? x:

Positive thinking wins :p
