IMO ESF is crazy, It's amazing what they've done so far.
Sure it's been like 10 years, but it's just a bunch of guys, definitely more then us working on it.
@Tensa there's not much work to be done if you have the files needed.
@IcemanBos No way. Both ESF 1.2.3 & NNK R1 i've been playing like crazy, all day long. Meeting new people and then meeting them again on different servers, fooling around. It's fun especially when you're playing with your friends + Skype. I always preferred team play over death match mode. But without updates both of them slowly died (well maybe there are 1-2 servers active even today but i doubt it)
@Dumke Indeed its been around 10 years. A lot of work has been done and it would be a shame if it went to waste. The problem is that most of the developers gave up on the project, they're probably busy with work or life (family, school...etc)
ESF 1.3 & NNK R2 are in a pretty bad development situation and they will probably die if we don't raise awareness (of the projects).
Coding a new server for MMORPG is not easy either. A lot of time and knowledge is needed, not anyone can pull it off. Plus money for hardware and so on~

Oh indeed our project is a monster, but they have the bigger monster of the two.
As far as the negativity from others goes, I say ignore it and post whatever you guys want to. If anyone doesn't like it or it's not enough then they can go make their own game if they can't wait. You guys got my full support and I'm glad you guys took on this challenge and decided to do it. If this had been about 2 years later I might be able to help with some programming. But for now I'll help in any other way that I can.
