"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Bingo, walk to the head of the class. In the meantime I've gone back to playing the 1991 and 1994 side scrolling DN games.

But they did manage to release a 2500xsomething screenshot of DNF. And pushed some two others into the XBOX re-release of DN3D.

Not that they are late, or anything...

I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

EVERYTHING has better development schedules than DNF.

You can't compare both, Mongoose. One is a commercial game, and the other is a mod for a commercial game.
