v1.29 Production Update- Keep on killing in the spree world

Ok boys and girls, it's time for a quick word about current (v1.29) production tasks. We're hard at it as usual, and since this is such a large development cycle with the Chinese (client/host localization) requirements creating a huge amount of work we otherwise wouldn't be involved in (translating everything and creating that client compliancy is enormous just by itself!) but things are humming along, if humming means tearing your hair out. 8]

v1.29 Production Update- things are heating up

Gophur's been away for a bit, so this production update will not include his news or participation. We've been working away on the wide range of goals we have for 1.29 and beyond. Some discrete things are finished or nearly so, and other new systems are also nearing completion, while core infrastructure changes, such as those underway for our future render solution and also gamewolrd instancing, remain significant and complicated tasks for which there are few incremental achievements to share with you at this time.

Actually it's probably more accurate to say "WTF !?! I don't get what DIDN'T happen just then!"

Watching the reactions of the community of avid fans that play our game can be an interesting excercise in perceptions. People come from all kinds of different places, from every facet of experience and from many different gaming backgrounds to find themselves here in Battleground Europe's world. Some of these players are very serious wargame and simulation orientated people who, by the very emphasis of their hobby have a good understanding of the advanaced ballistics and weapon modeling we used in creating Battleground Europes gameplay, basing it in many ways around the consequences and outcomes that in real life were not completely predictable due to the many variables at play on the battlefield. Sometimes that same experience causes them  to have problems because the game doesn't behave exactly like real life.
