People can decide which Game Engine Version to use

Just make sure to put the Game Version on each persons team page


As it stands now each league has the game engine version on the league page so i was thinking about why not have the Game Engine Version on each players team page then from there people can decide which game engine version to use in that league


People have complained about the new code like below and probably other previous code releases so why not nip it in the **** and just put the game engine version on each person's teams pages and then they can decide which one to use then i would think it would solve people compliants in that they can use a code they think has less problems until a better game engine version comes down the road and everyone wins.

There is little chance of that as much as I'm going to rant about 0.4.3.

So here's the deal folks, I've worked in the industry long enough to realize what 0.4.3 is. It's an abandoned release. What I mean by that is it's a release that was in development so long and had so many problems because of the scope of the change that JDB just got fed up working on it and sent it out because he became too impatient with the sunk costs of the development cycle rather than releasing a version that would have significantly moved the needle on the product.

To provide an analogy, 0.4.3 is the Windows ME or Duke Nukem Forever of MFN. For those of you old enough, remember that Windows 98 and Windows 98 SE were steady, stable, reliable products while Windows ME was hot flaming garbage. That's what we have right now in 0.4.3 unstable, abandoned code.

Of course, all of this has an easy fix. Remove all the nerfs put into place since April 1 that completely destabilized the code, and let things play out as they will.

That sound like a lot more work fixes bugs in multiple engines continually.

I’m not sure why you ALWAYS are a giant TOOL. It was an OBSERVATION.

Wouldn't you need to add another server to run two different game engines?
(Not a computer guru here, just sounds like it would need one)

Regardless i think DJ is right. This could complicate game development.

he's running three different versions right now if you count the beta leagues.
