What should the Fate of the "last" HDP v2.0 be?

Hello guys. The HDP is pretty much done. Community Stagnation, loss of interest... whatever, there's no point in stretching out what appears to be the LAST HDP Mechstorm plans to do.

So... please post here what the fate of the HDP will be.
Thanks,
MACK

Giving it to mektek would insure compatibility with future releases, and might be the best option given there new patching setup. On the other hand they might take it in a direction you don't want them too.

Just releasing the content would be a bad idea IMO, it'll make things alot more confusing.

And there is some public interest, otherwise you wouldn't see posts asking about it popping up every week, granted it's not the most active.

If you guys don't mind i have the tools to patch my own 3.1 game with the 3.02b HDP content, I can record some video and post it on you tube to drum up some support.

I don't think interest is really an issue. I think the real issue is that there is no way to keep up with MekTek's patches. The best way would be to make a patch or something of that sort. Where they can't steal our work. And give it to MekTek with some sort of agreement that they give us full credit for making it.

With as many new people to the game as I've met over the past few months, I believe incorporating a HD patch into a mektek patch would be the best route for simplicities sake. This would guarantee that people get to enjoy the patch and get the mechstorm name as much exposure as possible.

I say get what we can down then release it, then when MekTek releases a new one all they gonna be doing is adding new mechs and maps, Ive heard nothing about adding weapons so thats all good, all we have to do is keep up with the new mechs and there is like what 6 of them, not hard to do.... give our final product to MekTek with the Mechstorm add and let it go up for download, I know people been talking about the old HUD patches and such, myself like the NM4 hud (i use it for NBT HC)
