auto updater?

[PQ]

The soldat auto-updater is giving us the great opportunity update more frequently, most bugs are not that hard to fix, so why aren't we just updating them one by one with the auto-updater. The auto updater is just being useless at the moment and it could be so useful! I hate it to see the same bugs all the time when I know that they have been fixed/are easy to fix.

So I would like to see more fixes, less features. Not like 1.4.1 and 1.4.2 just make another version. (like you could have fixed nuubia or multiple other minor bugs that have been fixed way before 1.5.0 was released)

Keep the big version changes for major changes like adding features and add more versions to fix (minor) bugs, cause we can!


PS. You don't have to fix more bugs, just release the fix some faster.



edit: by auto updater, I meant the auto-notifier.

Updating Soldat is not that simple. BattlEye needs to be updated for slight file changes, dedicated server would need to be updated every single minor change as well, all the updates would fracture the population apart due to a massive array of different servers running different versions. Not every server owner is swift at upgrading their server, there's still buttloads of people using 2.6.4 >_>

I can't really go into much further explanation or reasoning without giving away "teh value", but basically the entire concept of frequent updates is flawed due to how Soldat works.

I just keep failing to understand how some games just get fixed by changing a .dll/.exe (or changing a ctf_Nuubia.pms file?!??!?!?!?) and soldat has to get updated all the way..
