Posted 31 March 2011 - 10:24 PM

I have decided to make a topic at which I will list the progress of Contra 008 as we create it, to stop the continuous flow of Guest posts. I really has been annoying having the same question asked over and over again, so let this serve as the automatic answer. I will give as much info as possible, but I will remain confidential to certain aspects of Contra.

THERE IS NO DEFINITE DATE FOR THE RELEASE OF CONTRA 008, OR EVEN AN APPROXIMATE ESTIMATION. THERE IS NO OFFICIAL DATE. YOU CAN DECIDE YOURSELF BASED ON THE DATA BELOW.

I'm going to list it in the style of loading bars, so it'll be easier to understand.
Contra 008 Actual Mod Progress:

[████████████████████] - 94%

In Alpha 2 stage of testing and bug-fixing
Alpha 3 stage of testing is about to begin.
Alpha 3 will likely be last Alpha before Betas start.

Contra 008 Campaign

[████████████████████] - 70%

Campaigns are moving on at a standard pace once more. Focus now is to revise missions created long time ago and update them with new models/balance.

New Contra 008 Web Site

[███████████████████] █ - 95%

New site is up and running, complete.
Link is not yet changed on Contra forum link, some errors in site.

Contra 008 Trailers

[████████████████████] - 100%

GLA Trailer - DONE
China Trailer - DONE
USA Trailer - DONE
100%. All Trailers are done and completed. There will be no more for the time being.

Models and skins

[███████████████████████] - 80%

Dropped percentage dramatically because of many new models and units that are being re-done, re-skinned, or just new units being added to the game. MANY MANY MANY new units to come soon, tons of units are being re-modeled.



THERE IS NO DEFINITE DATE FOR THE RELEASE OF CONTRA 008, OR EVEN AN APPROXIMATE ESTIMATION. THERE IS NO OFFICIAL DATE. YOU CAN DECIDE YOURSELF BASED ON THE DATA ABOVE.

I will update this post every time there is any progress made in the mod.
UPDATE DECEMBER 21, 2011
UPDATE JANUARY 1, 2012

EDIT: Increased the Campaign bar and Trailer bar by 5% each, because a new mission was finished in Campaign and new scenes were made in the trailer.

Anyone can talk here. Just changed actual mod progress with the news that Creator is taking a well deserved vacation.

I've pinned this topic. I also want to tell you that I need to finish 1 skin (it is 50% done now) and I will be ready to release the second alpha after this.

Our new web site coding is 95% complete now. It needs new design and some small fixes. New design was suggested and almost accepted (some changes need to be made though).

And what is next? I will release Alpha and start AI fixing. The team will have time to finish campaign, trailer and web site. And we will make release at last. There is not much work remained.

By the way, I want to congratulare you with campaign progress. ;)

Updated first post with Creator's data. Thanks for pinning this topic. Also, we cannot finish USA Trailer until 2nd alpha, because of missing Cyber units.
