Should they release Worms Armageddon v3.8 on Dec. 31st. even if it's unfinished?

Yes. ("even if it hurts the game" or "I don't believe Deadcode, it won't hurt the game to release it now")
16 (38.1%)
No. ("release it when the maintainers believe it won't hurt the game" or "release it at a future date when I don't believe it will hurt the game")
26 (61.9%)

Someone from Team17 actually did something?! This must be an April fools joke. Any progress is good though so I'm happy about this. Thanks for the update StepS.

Just to clarify some things:
  • This 3.7.2.2 update was not developed by Deadcode/CyberShadow. The single change was made by Charles Blessing (same as when 3.6.31.2b was suddenly released back in September 2012). There was no cooperation between DC/CS and Team17 on this release.
  • This is not the same 3.7.2.2 update as the one that DC/CS internally developed a while ago.
  • This is not the 3.8.0 update. It doesn't include all of 3.8.0's fixes, new features and other changes.
  • The 3.8.0 update is awaiting some changes before it can be submitted to Team17 for release. This should hopefully happen as soon as possible.

The manual in the installation folder is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural

So we've come from "no later than 2017, ready or not" to some unspecified point in time that "should" "hopefully" happen "soon"? Got it, thanks for the clarification.

That's because both kawoosh kick and rubberworm modules are developed independently by other developers, and has nothing to do with Worms Armageddon's updates.
So all of the present module that are available now, are likely to be incompatible with WA, and will have to be updated to the current and future version of WA by their respective developers.

Hopefully 3.8 will be out soon enough so they don't all have to do it twice

Not just RubberWorm and KawooshKick its ALL modules that were in 3.7.2.1
Ports Speechbanks, Terrains from more recent Worms games, got a Community Fix implemented in Team Fortress 2, and a Writer/Creator of Ellie Tricy and the Others!

Just curious - did this update fix any problems people were actually experiencing?

I'm still avoiding update but could let it and test.
Since one of Win10 updates almost year ago, been forced to play WA using compatibility with XP. Don't know anyone with same problem.
Also curious did they fixed it or 3.7.2.2. will be marked down as biggest failure in recent Team17 history.

Who needs the 3.7.2.2 patch, if it is such a minority TBH? It only enhances Win10 compatiablity with Worms Armageddon, but does nothing else, like PX ports or new mechanics.
I don't want to harm anybody, but when I am triggered, you'll see no mercy, only angry reaction.
My reaction to 3.8: STATUS CANNOT BE REMOVED!

3.8 is being made by different people. It will be better.

I have lost hope. I don't think 3.8 will ever be released.
I haven't, but it'll be a while. If this struggle keeps going, Half Life 3 will be announced well before Worms Armageddon 3.8 gets released
