Thanks. We will ask you further questions there to track the specific problems down because right now I am not sure exactly about the problems. Some other problems are already fixed or are already reported.
You're welcome.
Sure. I never said that.
I also never read that out of these stats.
But I also must have understood you wrong (or perhaps also others here). I thought it was said that most people stick to old LX56. I thought "most people" != "oldies" here.
As I said, many older players stick to either LieroX 0,56b, LieroX Pro, patched LieroX 0,56b or early version of OLX which doesn't have many new features. Newcomers have some latest version, of course.
So you are saying that we should change our priorities? To what? So that bug fixing / stability is more important than new features? Well, to repeat myself another time, it's already like that and 95% of the work is spent for this.
I'm saying you should revert back to beta 3 for example and fix that to be more stable, or start from scratch, I don't know what is better since I'm not developing OLX, just make an updated version of LieroX 0,56b which is stable and bug free.
Btw., as you (and some few others here) are repeating again and again that they just want to have a stable LX56, I start to wonder a bit about the overall vision.
Do you want to have
a) a perfect LieroX 0.56? or
b) a perfect Liero-like game? (take the best out of original Liero, LX, Gusanos and similar games)
I want to have a perfect LieroX 0.56. I played Liero long long time ago but for like 6 years I am playing LieroX. If I wanted something which is more like Liero, I would have tried other clones. Again, this is not a Liero community, this is LieroX community. We are playing LieroX, not Liero. I don't know why somebody came to this game or how they came, but I believe for older players it's the same, we want LieroX, not Liero or something so much different than LieroX.
Because I still stick to b, that was also my goal two years ago (after I realised that I will do more for this project than just port it over to Linux).
Don't you think by now it should be already clear this is not what the community is about?
No. Absolutly wrong (and always was). We never deleted anything. Everything we ever did was adding and generalising. We never wanted to delete anything.
If you find something missing, it is a bug. Please fill in a bug and we will fix it. So easy.
You are about to delete the compatibility. I found something missing, but I can't report it really. I found a heart missing in OLX which was present in LieroX, a soul which attracts older players to play it. That is missing and you are ruining the community for older players with every new feature you create. You already reached the limit of what is good to be included in LieroX, again, now it is about changing the game, not just updating it anymore.
What do you mean??
1. It's not incompatible. And any further ForceNewVersion option (which is perhaps activated by default) is only artificial. Perhaps this option is hardcoded later but you could still remove it from the code and it will be compatible. Whereby I see this pretty much senseless (if we are so far to have that hardcoded).
2. It's by far more compatible and fair correct LX56 gameplay than LX56 itself was.
3. LX56 was not stable.
4. OLX has far less bugs than LX56.
1. So far it is not incompatible but as already mentioned in this thread several times, soon it will come to this...
2. I agree with that. If only there wouldn't be so many bugs preventing me from using it properly.
3. That is why there should be an update, yes?
4. It might have far less bugs for you as a developer, for me as a player it has more bugs.
When I read such shit, I start to feel that you are totally ignorant. Not only about the development of OLX but also about the effort. It's like you are complaining that we put so much work into OLX and this could stop perhaps once. Learn coding and join the devleopment team. It's so easy. If you are not willing to put this effort, you cannot really give any complaint here about when and how much and how long we will work on OLX. Btw., you are working hard to make development on OLX really annoying.
I am exactly the same much ignorant as you are about what older players want. For one I do care what is going on with OLX as you could have noticed, that is why I'm replying to your posts when others stopped long ago or never even bothered. Why I can't give such thoughts? Because I'm not one of the developers myself? I'm a member of this community as well, I'm a player, I take care of other things which don't involve programming but are involving whole community. I can tell you that you should learn how this community works then. Stop talking about effort, I put and still am putting a lot of my effort into this community and game but you might don't see it since you only stick to the code and have no idea about what is going on in the community. I'm actively following to this community for like 6 years, Albert so lets not start with the subject. Do I make it as much annoying as you are making this game to old players? If that so, it is good that we finally reached the same level. I believe most of the old players were glad and excited to help you but by not listening to them you brought this upon yourself on your own.
