    I think he means how the new script will be easier for mods to do their code writing and whatnot. Custom classes, shops etc.

    Let's devote 2 pages to guessing what he's saying why don't we.

    Anyway, I'll be waiting, I can't wait!

    If the dev's are smart, they won't tell you. The best answer you are going to get is; somewhere in the future. Is that good enough for you? Sorry for being flat.

    Sorry, but guessing will not do anything, how did you even get that number?

    No he probably means a lot of new custom classes when the scripting update comes. Can't wait to see what rp servers will look like.

    Drop the topic about a deadline. If you have some stupid insistent need to know, and have to know when this update is going to be release, make a conversation with yourself and try to magically guess the date that is never going to be given to you. You may even guess better than yourself if you try hard enough and win against you.

    Some of the animation so far looks funny, but a good amount of it is enjoyable. Oh wait, you guys can't see that.

    The question I have is, how will this affect Free servers? I tend to play on them a lot and I'd like to know if this update would stop the Free clients from updating (Essentially making Paid clients unable to join Free servers, as they're in different versions..)

    Will the bow angle new thing apply to the shield too? Or it will be as it is today made out of sprites? And.. please make a video when you finish patching a few bugs :D

    he wants to say that in the future builds, modding will be easier and better.

    Just because a bunch of new things get released doesn't mean it will be easier.

    They have been mentioning repeatedly that they want to make modding more expansive and more user friendly y'know ;)

    As for free version it's not like it's gonna be an issue, the game doesn't exactly take up much space to cramming both into one installer/update/whatever isn't gonna be a big deal.

    I'm guessing it will be "easier" as in able to actually modify something you couldn't modify before.

    Not that suddenly everyone can do it. You need to atleast understand how programming kind of works, or wait until someone makes a tutorial for the general audience. ( That's what I'm guessing )



    Apart from that, I'm really looking forward to this update! Keep it up!

    The clients will be seperate, as it will be a completely new game, this had to be done so that they could keep classic how it is, but still be able to rewrite everything in full, you'll still be able to crack open your classic client and join a classic server just as easily.
