Anyone even know why the new patch is taking forever?

I have heard something about a new refactoring

Dejan explained it a few pages back, I believe. They're optimizing some things, first.

 

[Flesson19]

I guarantee it will be Soon™

I suspect the patch is taking a while because the entire dev team commited harakiri to save their honour.

It's just Callum at this point trying to get people on Stack Overflow to help him while pretending he's a girl.

But that's just the final thing before releasing it right? What actually made it take this long.

damn why did i never thought that? could have so many dudes doing all the work for me

I want to believe they are doing a lot of architectural code changes not mentioned in SP Roadmap, that have been blocking them from implementing basic stuff, and doing the groundwork to re-do and deliver everthing properly.

Not necessarily. It sounds to me that they're stabilizing the game first so future developments will be smoother.

Seems like they're mostly putting out a lot of fires that 1.5.9 seems to have started effectively. Lots of hotfixes sorting out all of the things it seemingly broke. So i'd not be surprised if they're also re-evaluating a lot of things to try and avoid having to do that again.

Definitely a bit boring we've got nothing new and flashy to look forward to.. But eh. Found time to test out Sergeant Crossbowmen vs Palatine Guards. So far Sergeant Crossbowmen are fairly far ahead on most counts except wasting shots :p

Are we in January yet ?

 

[Noschkov]

Finally we get a new hotfix

Edit: We get the first beta test branch update in weeks. I can't beliefe that i say this but i am optimistic for a real new beta patch this week

 

[RobustTurd]

@Dejan can you reveal if we can expect a beta branch this week?

 

[WhiteEyedSh4rk]

Getting flashbacks of code refractory..

Has any of the devs or forum staff given a statement on why its taking so long again?

Yes. According to Dejan the team is currently working on optimization and tests. Here's that post.

There is a remaining [optimization] task that needs to finish its integration and testing tasks.

Oh, well, we don't know. As far as I'm aware, they haven't said at all what 1.6.0 will bring.

Perhaps we get a first look at the long hidden feature that prevented Banners from being implemented in the Game(i know that this is no prediction but a dream

Honestly, if they bring in a better banner system that allows me to import my own artwork, I would probably forgive everything else. ?

Yes.
