If not when are they sceduled to be put in the game?

None in curent release, limited in next release.

2. Are there Any monsters to fight.

Same as above

3. on average how many people play on this game at a time?

Guesses:  Average of around 15-25.  For next version we hope to average ~100

4. what is the expected date of completion on this game (if any)

No idea really, we don\'t even know when the next release will be .

[Edward]

ok, your answers lead to my next Question

When is the next release sceduled, and Define \"Limited\"

[Edward]

Anathor thing, without Combat, what is there to do in this game?

[fireofsoul]

Role play.. and go looking for crystals (the currency that spawns all around the world)

[Yarulion]

Next release: Christmas 2003 (Well, last I heard )

As for your questions to the scope of the game, they hope it will never be truly finished. Pretty much, though, this release is 100MB. 90% of the code has been changed, which means there should be about 10MB of this release left after the next one. The next release was projected to be about 380MB or more. This means 370MB of more stuff for us to do! 8o  

[Edward]

and these releases, where can i locate the new releases when one comes out

[Moogie]

You\'ll know when the rest of us do, Edward. I expect they\'ll put the release up for download on the website, and announce it both in these forums and on the mailing list. It certainly won\'t be hard to find.

[Edward]

i hope it will be in segments because i wont be able to handle a all at once 300 MB download

[Icefalcon]

I assume it will, but if not, you can get programs that let you resume downloading...

[Jadd]

How about bittorrent? You can resume the download whenever you want, and it\'s free.

[Androgos]

We have troughts of using some P2P programs yes

[dfryer]

If there are enough mirrors, then perhaps only the minimum files necessary to run the updater can be distributed, and then the updater run to grab the rest of the game?  It does things on a file-by-file basis, so it might be possible to design it for interruption.

And, as nobody has pointed out yet, all these questions have been asked repeatedly on these forums and the answers can be found by using the search button. Not that I don\'t appreciate your interest, but posting a thread is seldomly a good way to get basic info like this. After all, how big is the chance that you\'re the first one who might ever have had these questions? Slim, if not zero.

Seytra: Everyone was so shocked that he was actually polite that no one bashed him.

Also, perhaps since acraig posted people thought that he approved of such practices... >_>
