So, apologies if it's already been addressed. I'm at work, and my search-fu is limited with all the bosses still walking around, lol.

Has anyone given an ETA on a mid's update for i22 with ATIO's included?

Thanks!

According to some Titan folks, it'll be a few weeks before an update.

Good general guideline for any Issue update to mids, really.

Diellan hopes to have a release candidate for bug testing by this weekend. Bug testing generally lasts about a week, barring horrendous issues.

Bleh, I was hoping it would be updated before double xp so I could figure out if I wanted to level anything. I guess I will have to makeshift an update myself so I can start working on dark assault and staff fighting builds.

Are you volunteering to get it done?

Don't get me wrong, I always want Mid's updated as quickly as possible with new powersets. But I understand this is a free service that fellow players provide in their spare time. So . . . the sooner the better but whenever they get to it is more than worth the price I pay.

Mid's is so universally used and desired... i'm really surprised that the dev's don't create and maintain and offline build planner... and then incorperate a way to save/load builds in game for respec purposes.

Ironically, probably one reason this doesn't happen because the people who've created/maintained/etc mid's have all done so well.


I gotta make pain. I gotta make things right. I gotta stop what's comin'. 'Least I gotta try.

Heh - I just said pretty much the same thing over in a Scrapper thread.

Now, IF I were paying X for this software and service, I'd expect a Mid's update as soon as new issues go "live."

Why, IF I were paying 2X for some sort of premium service, I'd want the updates during beta!

Since I'm not paying anything (though I probably should make a donation) I'm quite happy with what we've got, and glad to get updates whenever we get them. (An un-updated Mid's is still VASTLY superior to a notepad and pencil, if you ask me!)

You're more than welcome to assist Diellan and crew to bring Mids' out faster.

In fact, if you want to donate enough every week to give someone a salary to do nothing but Titan tools, I'm sure something could be arranged.

Until that happens, they're volunteering to do this for free, in their free time, taking up potential game time to give other people something that isn't necessary to play the game. It'll get done when it gets done, and your complaints are not warranted. Just sayin'.

There's an easy way to do this.
Toss a donation Dellian's way for the time.
And I don't mean $20.
To get it up in the time frame you're asking, likely people would have to take time off work to do the programming and testing. They'd need compensation for their lost wages.

Otherwise, if you want it for free...

Note: Kheldarn, really ragging on you. Your post more or less gives me a springboard for the people who'd say something similar in a more self-entitled fashion.

Oh look. An Aggelakis appeared. What a surprise.

Anyway, where, exactly, did I say anything wrong? Oh right. I didn't. I only stated that it would be nice to see.

I could have been a jackass and said, "THRZ NO REZN MIDZ IZTN UPDATD WIN CIYT IZ DEY IN BETA SO DEY NO WHUT 2 DO!!!1111". But I didn't.

It was pretty close to this kind of turn-around when I was in charge of Mids'. Just sayin.

And then your plate got full with other stuff, and you stepped down, passing it over to Dellian and Co.

And I have no problem with that, or with Dellian and Co. I merely said that it would be nice if an update for Mids' came out within 24 hours of a Issue going Live. And suddenly, I'm an *******.

Welcome to the forums!

No, my plate didn't get full. That was never an issue with me stepping down. Not going to get into it here, but let's just say there was some background stuff going on that didn't mesh well.

Your not a ***** Kheld, I agree with you. And I know better than anyone else what is involved with working on Mids'.

Ah. IIRC, you never came out and said exactly what the reason was, so my take on it was what I stated in my prior post.

I'm just going to assume it had something to do with Lord Nemesis.

I thought Mids used to be updated much more quickly previously but put it down to my poor memory. Guess my memory is fine and the updates have got slower.

I do understand the point that "well we do it for free so deal" - I do voluntary work in my own time - but if the turn around is so poor that someone else can do it better ... I let them because "I'm doing it for nothing" doesn't mean "I will do it when I'm good and ready".
