Report RSS Weekly update, week 39

Posted by on

Alright, you requested updates so I'm going to try and make weekly ones from now on.

Over the past few weeks some of the team members have been busy with various real life commitments, and that's just how mods go or any project that depend on people's free time. However this week people have begun to come back and be able to dedicate more time for Revision, and that's awesome.

We've made significant progress about our internal branding and with bugs. Currently we have 3 BSPs left that we are working on (one of them is fairly new). I've also decided implement some small stuff that we've had slated for a post-release patch like some visual improvements to one of the end cutscenes or adding some details to a map that was already acting up and we had to edit anyway.

We are also wrapping up things with the Eidos Montréal team, we've got a fixed release date, and there's a full announcement coming.

iam sure all the negativity and odd discussion is because:

people care! they care alot!
we all want to see what you guys have created!!
it looks amazing!
and, well, in my heart Deus Ex was a really special game, it changed the way i think about video games!
..Id like to relive the game, like its my first time playing it!

Nice.My guesstimate saya Christmas Release....personally,I am happy to wait a few more months.Checking this page is a regular part of my browsing pattern now.Squenix should make an anniversary edition of Deus Ex,similar to what 343 studios have done with Halo.But then again,I supppose,that this is the whole point of Revision.Besides....the engines and artistic style between the games are wildly different.
Looking forward to it.

So, when its speculation, you say a more or less a date.
When you got a fixed date for release, you don't say it.

Makes sense.

I didn't say that, I just don't see a point in complaining in every single thing that's all :p

You never seen me giving an opinion on the mod itself, only on stuff like this.

What about your statements on "graphics made to look like Revolution"? That sounded like judging the game.

Thats a fact, not an opinion.

I am aware this next one contains the ENB series, but you can see the wall textures and the lights

I've played the whole package and I loved the mod. The Revolution style (which isn't present in the whole mod) didn't bother me, not at all. Why do people care if it looks like HR? So what? It's still Deus Ex... really!

Oh and please, keep your screenshots to yourself.

Could it be, that people hate it, because Deus ex 1 is not Human revolution?

It's a matter of opinion I guess. Despite your reasoning, I still think it looks way better than the original and super nice.

So they have used orange color in some datacubes aaand the ENB glow efect, that makes ReVision a copy od DXHR. *handclaps* You know, I have seen screenshots with blue, green or yellow glow too. What kind of "fact" is that?

By the way, you could also accuse them for taking too much inspiration from System Shock 2. I have seen some screens where it is more than obvious. Am I now supposed to flame the comment section with pointing at that?

You should google "Strawman argument", you are very good at it.

Great, teach me more about discussion!
At least that keeps you occupied from presenting your opinions as obvious truth.

I never said that "it makes a copy of HR", and thats a strawman.
If you can't talk without making stuff up about me, just don't.

"We are also wrapping up things with the Eidos Montréal team, we've got a fixed release date, and there's a full announcement coming." - I find this really hard to believe.

I really wish to play Revision, but after how the fans got treated in the past... I'm not going to get my hopes up again.
