This is a quote from the Slovak forum:
"LAL_R_One, it all depends on the outcomes of beta testing and fine tuning of the map in next 1-2 weeks. It might be out before Christmas. But please bear in mind that we have only one shot. There will be no fixes, no additional patches. I would rather see the map release delayed right after Christmas than having it unfinished and unpolished 2-3 weeks earlier. Few weeks after 3 years of development don't make any real difference any more in my opinion. The end is very very close however."
Can't argue with the logic there. The Slovak map is unbelievably good. I know it's a sore point with a few people, but I personally hope there is no extra encryption in 4.09 so that the new textures can be used immediately to upgrade some of the old maps. :wink:
