why do so many people still play 6.1/6.2/6.3?????

[RedGuard]

seroiusly 6.4 is better in every way and it seems like ever other post is about "Why does this happen this way"

"It doesn't. what version are you using?"
"oh im using SS 2.3"

WWWWWWWWWWWWTTTTTTTTTTTTFFFFFFFFFFFFF?

or

"This unit is overpowered. can anybody tell me if this was fixed in 6.4?"

I don't know.... how about you download it and find out???????????? its not like the patch is a gig or something, every ones internet should be able to handle a few hundred meg in this day and age unless your from but egypt. no offense to anyone from egypt btw........ pure laziness. is all it is. ithink everyone here on the SS forums should make a pledge not to answer these posts until everyone has upgraded

I, for one, miss Ireland from 6.1, not to mention that I didn't have a single CTD until I updated to 6.4

Also, if I recall correctly, 4.1 (or was it 5.1?) was a version that didn't require Kingdoms.

[RedGuard]

why don't you get kingdoms then? seriously the gold edition of m2tw is like 19.99$ or less on ebay.

support the games you play and buy it

[ihranator]

You really don't follow posts well, do you? I mentioned that I updated to 6.4, which clearly states that I have Kingdoms, for that version of the mod would not function otherwise.

[SeizeVictus]

I play 6.1, because the turn times on the newer versions are annoying.

I play S.S. 6.1. because of CC's BftB 2.

[RedGuard]

why not have 2 copies of SS then? BFTB2 is a REgional mod.

It is simple. 6.4 crashes more frequently.

Here I thought it couldn't even be installed on your pc - trust me the support amount for 6.4 is way less than 6.3, which leads me to believe that it is in fact more stable.

[RedGuard]

Its just that this a really good mod and it seems to be the only one that seems to have this problem of six different versions of the mod going at once with all versions played by a good amount of people

btw ive never had a ctd in 6.4 only when playing battles with 6000+ soldiers on the battlefield and that is bound to happen with huge unit sizes with unlimited reinforcements on any mod.

You want a reason? i am just to laze to download 6.4 and run it .

I believe that!! lol

Only downside is that we don't release bugfixes for those older versions. 6.1 still has the kingmaker and pirate bug - which was fixed in 6.2. And so on...

[RedGuard]

Can you post what mod version you are asking this for? My crystal ball is broken again

[Arctic Tyr]

I do have 6.4 but man, you sound very aggressive, chill out and let people play their own version.

[thespaniard]

A i like destroying Ireland
B turn times are alot longer
C I am also lazy

[Townsaver]

As to why i used to play SS4.soemthing.. I own kingdoms, but because i made an agreement with my wife, i didnt install it until i completed my half of the deal. Now i have, and now i play SS6.4.
My question, is why are you so rabid for everyone to move to 6.4? There are differences, sure, but soem people may feel that that which maes 6.4 better in your opinion actually make it worse. so they dont. Wah.
Why the hell you care?

[Arowaner]

I generally agree that everyone should be allowed to play the version he/she wants. That said...
I had lots of fun with 6.1 even tried BGR and liked it - updating to 6.2 messed things up big time. For whatever reason I got frequent CTD all of the sudden. The ones at the end of long and difficult siege battles got me raging hard - I hated it. All fixed did not do jack. Now with my new PC and 6.4 everything is great again - only 1 CTD so far - and that was not the games fault. I would never go back to an older version now. I found Irland useless and the bugs (devastation bug mostly) annoyed me. The new map in 6.4 with the larger passages through mountains alone are a reason to get the new version. Oh and crusader states are much better then templer or kingdom of jerusalem as in previous versions. But even now they still have banners from the papal states - what is up with that? This was already reported well before 6.4 came out.

Very curious about what's your opinion on 6.4 Tell me why it's THE best version? Seriously, 6.1 really marks me for my enjoyment and personally, it's the best version of SS. At least I have a sort of challenge in this one, I was loving Jihad spamming against Constantinople when I was playing Byzantium and turn speed was very fast compared to 6.3 or 6.4. The thing that is good about 6.4 is it's more stable than the other versions. SS is good but it needs something more than fixing patches and added scripts cuz the mod is already loaded with scripts.

And to finish with it, you, the people and the mod's creators cannot "impose" a version but logically, the modders will focus on the latest version. It's up to the player, if they prefer a X version over a Y version, I don't see any thing wrong about it. It's a game after all.

I don't speak on behalf of him, but I think the fully integration of the newer RR&RC (since 6.3) is/was the next step of the evolution of SS and for that reason alone, I cannot touch the older versions

the next step of SS evolution shall be like what I've said on that 6.5 question thread from a week ago

[MrExpendable]

1. I'd miss out the good mods which aren't upgraded for 6.4 yet.
2. I personally dislike the units having the flag bearers/officers, which look odd in the later part of the campaign.
3. Ireland.
4. I think they were getting a bit too overboard with the RR/RC part in SS6.4.

And it's up to the choice of the people whether they're going to buy Kingdoms or not, and you got no authority to shove Kingdoms down their throats if they don't want to buy it.
