Is it going to happen?

I'm curious as to what the situation is for EN World 2. Why didn't it happen? Still too many bugs or something?

Just curious,

It's in development.

It's a complete code overhaul, so it's almost entirely custom. It's very sweet looking, and much of it is done.

It is however, very late compared to the intended time. However, I think we'd all rather have it right than soon.

Mike is doing some very good work, so it will be worth the wait :)
 

Can you give us a very rough guesstimate? Are we looking at days? Weeks? Months? Whatever it takes is fine, we do want it right more than soon, but some idea will help prevent the incessant "Are we almost there yet" questions that are bound to start popping up. (I know I'm starting to bind some myself :p )

Estimates will only stop questions if we are, in fact, sure that we can meet them.

EN World 2 Development has a very low Truck Factor - very few people need to be hit by trucks for it to stop. Given that there is Real Life involved, we would be foolish to give estimates in which we have low confidence.

Plus, it isn't like 4e, where you would want to reconsider your habits if you knew the date. Nothing you do depends on the date, so why should we set expectations on it? It'll be here when it is ready, and not a moment before.
 

Well, my ability (and others) to post reviews does depend on the date since we can't do it with the errors of the current system. :D

Actually, that is not true. Since I cannot add new subscriptions, I cannot subscribe to items I want to view---I have to hunt them down. This is a change of behavior. Unfortunately, the folks in that thread have ticked off Michael, so it appears that issue may not be addressed soon---the impression I have been given is that it won't be fixed until the ENII rollout. I know I've posted this a few places (the thread I mentioned, the bug list), but I just looking for some definite communication to let me know either: its not being fixed or it will be looked at.

I honestly don't know - sorry!

Don't worry, I don't stay mad long. However, I'm going to make it a point not to read these threads or any others because I have things to do. I have a long Christmas holiday coming up - I intend to spend as much time as my family allows curled up in front of a computer working on this - but no promises on how much progress will be made in that time.

Thanks for the update.
