Huh? Why explicitly not Steam?

[Inspector Lagomorf]

Does it matter? Mr.Deviance stopped being relevant long ago.

I'm sure you will love the Weapons DLC we have planned
Thank you for the continued support - Patch 1.1, which we are currently Beta Testing, currently includes more than 100 fixes.

I like the way you said "weapons", I know that a shotgun is planned and should be fun (I love shooting dumb enemy's with a shotgun) but are there more non explosive based weapons planned?

I don't know how much use this is, as anyone can do a search for the first phrase of the quoted text and find the forum it originates from.

We will officially start the Beta Tomorrow (Friday).
If you want to participate, test new maps, fixes, etc. here this is your chance!

The new maps are Multiplayer Maps

[Lunick]

I hope they have proper boundaries this time

The prev. maps has also been polished and fixed.
There are some pretty crazy maps in-between - The Update will Feature 5 new multiplayer maps

[Player Lin]

Anyone can search for porn, but it doesn't mean it's okay to have links here. Forum might get blacklisted or some other crap.

So it's not OK to post a link to a forum that links to a download site that hosts a pirated copy, but it's fine to leave behind a quote that makes it child's play to find said forum in a search engine?

Besides, I don't exactly consider it proper form to drag in dirty laundry from a place that has nothing to do with Duke4, thereby drawing extra attention to illegally offered product; it's bad etiquette and it's counter productive.
This is something that, if necessary, should be fought out between Fresch and Mr. Deviance through e-mail, PM, at "the other place", but not here.

[DavoX]

I'm stil waiting for Mr. Deviance to make and release a game.

[MusicallyInspired]

Mr. Deviance will never fight out in a PM match. There's no audience.

Or anything else worthwhile. A first meaningful post could be a start for him.

[Sangman]

Good grief, while I have no particular interest in getting ROTT... Deviance being a pompous jerk about it makes me want to buy 20 copies out of spite.

The picture was posted by the leader of the team that made the game, so I'm sure he knows what kind of actions would truly put their work in harm's way.

He had more than enough meaningful posts in DNF subforum.

just make the beta patch a public download the games already out there its not like it will spoil any surprise and you will have a far larger player base to discover any things you missed before it becomes official

[Tedades]

For a game costing $/€15 you can not expect AAA quality and the extras for pre-ordering made up that amount if you have doubts.
Also people will probably get mad anyway if you remake something popular.
So being harsh about it isn't doing any good and doesn't make people happy.
That said, if you belong to the angry mob of people already hating the game when it was announced, this would be (one of the) forum(s) to tell fellow torch stick/ pitchforks carriers about how you feel.

When reading all the comments I do think the patch will solve some common issues, so (for a small company) I find that they handle the situation well.

The DLC Shotgun according to Dave/Interceptor Stream

[Frederik Schreiber]

Just a few details on it
It's going to be semi-automatic. Almost "Shoot as fast as you can click".
The gun will be cocked between each shot. The barrel will rotate every time.
Secondary firemode will shoot all 3 barrels at once, as Hitscan Explosives, and have a 2 second cooldown, while all barrels are getting loaded again.

Also, if you missed the Livestream, we have announced the following:

More than 150 Bugfixes, new features, fan requests, etc. for Patch 1.1
5 brand new Multiplayer Maps
Ludicrous Development Kit (We showcased the new ROTT Actions, and Remade E1M1 from "The Hunt Begins" in Classic Mode)
ROTT Shotgun for Singleplayer and Multiplayer
Brand new User Maps Browser, and a Playlist Feature for Server Hosting.
A new "Horde" mode, which was prototyped completely in the LDK

We are releasing all of it for free during the next couple of weeks

[Lunick]

I was honestly expecting something more generic, it currently reminds me a little bit of a Tommy Gun.

I hope some of the AI was changed/fixed because I don't know how I feel about ROTT's enemies in a game style like that in their current state.

I hope enemies can at least open doors. They are completely retarded in the current state, not what was promised (remember about the balanced AI thing mentioned by Interceptor here?).
