Okay. It's come to my attention that certain people are doubting the progress being made on Tellurian.
My response to these... Pontifications is multifaceted;
A). Fuck right off. Seriously, right the fuck off. Everything we have done with the mod has been New. We've had to teach it all to ourselves because, let's face it, there wasn't exactly anyone around willing to lend a hand, and I'm pleased to say that as a direct result of this we've made some pretty cool innovations. However, Del and I are at university now (I'm sitting my midsemester exams) and we're doing all we can, but we don't have the time we used to have.
We told you this would happen. Progress has been forcibly slowed; get over it, Lester old bean.
B). It will get done. I've told you we will finish it, and that means we will. Period.
C). It's pretty close to finished as it is. We just have one model left to texture, and two models to animate. Seriously, do you not pay attention to the Telurian thread? This would be much easier if my computer hadn't decided that it won't animate anymore, but shit happens, so Matt's gotta animate on his lonesome for now. Sorry lad.
D). We're taking longer than we technically need to because we want to ensure quality. For instance, we could be totally finished with textures by now, but Byam came along and has been generous enough to lend us his expertise, allowing us to improve many of our models.
E). And this one's a bit of a subset of D)., and targeted specifically at Lester dear. I distinctly recall you urging us to hurry up and to release things more quickly... And then, after we responded to your rushing and released critters before they were quite ready, you were rather swift to denounce them as shit. Which, to be honest, they were, which we now have to go back and fix. Can't have it both ways.
And, hey, now that you mentioned it, didn't you promise a map for the mod? One that would put mine and Del's efforts to shame? Wouldn't that be something.
I'll refrain from commenting on the progress of your own mod.
So, basically team-- it's getting there. Bitchin' about it isn't helping us, though. Besides, I thought you were all happy playing Shadow, anyway?

SO. TURNS OUT LESTSIR WAS TROLLIN' ALL ALONG.
This is embarrassing.
However, in the name of good sportsmanship, I'm leaving the above rant undeleted as a monument to this occasion.
Fucking Croats.
