[Next & Future Updates] Will there be changelogs?

[Wabbitface]

As the topic title suggests, will there be a detailed changelog available for the community once this (large update) comes live?

I think we would rather find out immediately what changes have been made, it would be a nice check-list to see what Nadeo have been working on instead of the community finding out things over a two month period. I know it would probably be a massive list but it would be really useful for all types of people in the SM community.

To give a better example, each point made here is a category and below each one there are numerous lists of what as been changed in the update:

• General & Competitive Playing (movement, netcode, hitboxes, player vs enviroment conflicts, gamemodes etc.)
• Sound
• Map Creation
• Matchmaking & Lobby
• Replay Editor
• Maniaplanet UI (profiles, titles, server browser etc.)
• Ingame UI (General HUD, Options menus)
• Dedicated Server
• Stuff for Server Controllers
• Gamemode/Title Creation
• User configurable game Settings (Defaults, new&removed settings, Tooltips on mouse-over etc.)

Cheers and I hope to see this in the next update and future ones too.

i totally support this idea

There have been changelogs for most updates, no reason to expect this will not be case for future updates. The level of details is, as always, up to Nadeo of course.

Ohh this is in the forum, I would expect this to be in a blog or when the game starts up in the new update. Hell why not show it while its downloading and installing?


The Changelogs should be available to everyone and not everyone is going to visit the forums to find out. (Especially me, I didn't even know that this forum board even existed and you know how long I've been around)

I'd prefer more detailed, so many changes were added on that update and I am sure a lot of them weren't listed, but that changelog is pretty good as it is.

I agree with you wabbitface. Detailed changelogs of every update would be very nice.

Now when there are updates, we know in generall what is added, but sometimes, when in-game we're surprised by someting that we weren't aware of

Agree too for the changelogs while downloading, would be very nice. If the info box is too small put scrollbar so can fit all the infos there. (And comment box underneath like facebook comments? Or shows the changelog forum topic and you are logged in to comment)

That's exactly what happened for previous updates: a summary of the changes is shown during the download, with a link to the pertaining forum post for details.

Then apparently you never paid attention to previous game updates and the links included in them. All you need(ed) to do is click on them to get here, and you would have learned of the forums at the same time.

Nothing personal, but just because you didn't know about some things doesn't mean they didn't happen already.
