How big was this patch really?

Since no news still, does anyone know, how big this patch really was? Did it had ALOT of changes HB need to correct?

 

The only ppl that can answer that are the core developers, and they stopped answering these kinda questions years ago. An update will come, your keys will be extended

 

Why stop giving this kind of information to your customers? isn't it kind of relevant, just to keep your customer up to date, and letting them know, if it will take 1-3 days or 1-3 weeks.

 

There isn't a direct correlation between lines of code, and time it takes to update. If you go to the honorbuddy discord server, you will see their explanation in full detail in the announcements page.

Basically, reverse engineering a game-client doesn't fit into a standard application development cycle. They will only let us know updates when "milestones" are met.

We will only get an ETA when it is about 8 hours from release, per discord announcements.

I'd love a lot more insight into what Raphus and EchoTiger do, but it's a waste of their time to keep writing updates saying the same thing "its not ready". Also, they probably don't want to reveal all their "tricks".

All this culminates into us having to patiently wait for the next release.

 

So since there hasn't been any announcements yet, we can with high accuracy say, that a release won't be happening within the next 8 hours?

 

That is correct.

And as this forum is slower to update than the discord, I suggest you follow there and turn on notifications for the announcements channel.

Occasionally you will even see the developers talk about their work. I **recall** EchoTiger saying there were 10,000 new lines of code in the 7.2 release
