As far as I have understood, you stood for the coding of the 1.4 patch. Now, 1.4 presented the RTCW community with some rather irritating bugs, which luckily the different mods (OSP, Shrub) fixed rather fast. But there are still many servers out there just running vanilla RTCW.
Previous patches came with bugs as well, but they got fixed rather fast - 1.3 -> 1.31 -> 1.32 -> 1.33. Now 1.4 is here, and we’re back to the bugs. ATM the whole community is devided between 1.33 and 1.4, the clans play 1.4 due to leagues going 1.4/OSP 0.82a, but I guess many pubbers are still 1.33 due to the bugs in 1.4.
Now, for my question; Where is the upgrade? It’s been quite some time since 1.4 got released, and we have seen no response whatsoever to all forum complaints, we do not even know if it is in the works. Perhaps I am wrong, in that you didn’t make the 1.4 patch, but the community is waiting for 1.41 to get rid of all bugs. If you search the different RTCW forums you will even see that people have collected lists of all bugs.
The most nasty one is the client crash, but there is no answer on that one yet, if it is 1.4 or PB that is causing it.
Anyway, all I want is an answer - will this patch get updated soon, is it in the works, or have the responsible companies given up on vanilla rtcw?
Lastly, mp_dam is a great map, but the stairwell bug keeps it out from competition. We had it in a league, and it nearly killed the servers. User mappers fix their maps if they have flaws, and this is not a bug you are not aware of. How about fixing the dam bug in 1.41 as well, so that it can be used again? It is a great map for 6vs6, but you rule it out by having a massive bug in it.
