Sometime near the end of september (knock on wood)

laz 23rd August 2003 04:00

Meh, it is just Winamp 2.
WHERE THE HELL IS WINAMP 3 DAMNIT! I loved it, it just need some good TLC (crap, did I just use that word?), and some better coding and killing of the video playback IT SUCKS! If that happend, I would love it. but it is not...

Psythik 23rd August 2003 05:14

I just hope WA5 isn't as much as a disaster as WA3 was...

Print 23rd August 2003 06:02

When it's ready.

mark 23rd August 2003 12:04

mmm, bugs in wa3, yum(!)

n0On3 25th August 2003 15:27

There was a link somewhere to download a beta (or even alfa) of wa5, but can't find it :(

mark 25th August 2003 15:30

apparently the wa3 skin loading is still very buggy...

mikm 25th August 2003 15:32

@ n00n3: that link might have been to 2.92 or 2.95. Some sites claim to have "Winamp 8" or "Winamp 5", but it is just BS.

HarsH 25th August 2003 15:35

Wa5 is supposed to be all the good thigns about WA2 with the freeform skinning of WA3. 2+3=5 If you woudl jsut read the links provided aboev then you would not be as ignorant as you are now. :hang: i was i was teh author of this, then i coudl request lockage. :hang:

mark 25th August 2003 15:38

winamp2 + winamp3 = winamp5
a joke that has since backfired completely.

Nothing against you, Russ, but come on. "When it's ready"? You sound like one of the people who are behind Duke Nukem. Those guys are pompous jerks, and you don't come off like that.

i can answer that with a little timeline

code:

-not ready
-still not ready <-present
-ready <-future
-releaseed <-further in future
-morons...er...people...immediately bitch about bugs
-bug fixes
-more bug fixes
-etc. about bugs



As you an see, "Ready" comes right before the relase, and right after when it is not ready. I even labled it "future" to give you a better idea of a date.

(what I am getting at is that nobody knows for sure, but it will be awhile, so quit bitching and just wait. Do you want to pressure them into releasing it early and we can have another (what some people called) WA3 Fiasco again?

and no, russ isn't a pompus jerk, but I am. :D

The alpha was leaked, so posting a link here would probably get you banned.

You obviously don't program for a living.

Whenever a company pushes a product out the door too soon it is full of dropped features and bugs.

Not putting out a release date makes it easier on developpers because it will be released when it's ready, not when it should've been ready.

How do you know I don't program for a living? Just because I was saying that "When it's ready" is a turn-off for this would be downloader? I'm not against them taking all the time they need, but there are many ways to say "it's not ready yet." "When it's ready" is just plain rude.

Viper007Bond 26th August 2003 07:24

So, Darth_Pookie, do you program for a living?

Darth_Pookie 26th August 2003 07:35

No, I do not, now that someone asks.

Russ 26th August 2003 08:19

Rude? It's the truth. There is no fixed release date because we don't want to release something that's full of bugs, etc. There's not even an approximate release date. We don't want a repeat of the Winamp3 fiasco, so it will be released when Nullsoft thinks it's bug-free enough. I don't see how that's rude... We're not witholding anything from you, that's all we know.

mark 26th August 2003 10:56

is there going to be a public beta?

Russ 26th August 2003 10:58

No idea :).

ryan 26th August 2003 11:03

Stop asking questions about it, It's not like you're going to die if you don't have it right now. We don't want it to turn out like another Winamp3 .. So just wait for it.
