Upcoming Patch Info

So I figured I would fill you in on what is going on around here this week.

First of all, we most likely will patch this week (hopefully). That's the good news, as you will get fixes, balance tweaks, and some other fun stuff hopefully.

The "bad" news is that most likely it will not include a new Hero this week.

- I am working on Voice Work so that the now-mute heroes can start talking and saying silly things you all enjoy. After I finish getting a lot of this done I am going to work on tweaking Darkwood Vale to improve it significantly.
- Fielding is working on some cool hero reworks and tweaks along with a few secret projects. More details to come.
- The Artists are hard at work making two new heroes (not ports) and some new neutral models so we can add in some new neutrals with new abilities.
- Our programmers are working on the matchmaking system, chat server, server stability, working on making replays viewable by you guys, and some general gameplay code needed for the new heroes and fixes.
- Our twittering intern (http://twitter.com/S2Phlogiston) is working on the map editor so when we get it out to you guys it's not in such a rough state.
- Our web guys just put up our replays and players webpages (see the sticky) and are working on completing those sites and opening up more of our website to you soon.

Not all of this is coming out in the next patch, I am merely explaining that there are a lot of things going on at once. =]
