I wonder when we'll see the ultimate pack.

This thread is a waste of time. What point does it have? All we are doing is arguing over something no one knows the answer to. The best idea we have is at PAX East. No more need for discussion :)

First it was "waiting for RP2". Keep in mind that when the DW20 and MindCrack packs came out, they were put across as specialized packs, not the primary offering people had been waiting for since the launcher was officially released. So we got those when RP2 came out and then we were apparently waiting on worldgen tweaking. Then it was waiting to confirm what mods exactly would be in the pack. Then it's waiting for this or that mod to release a new revision/complete first revision. Now it's PAX east. It's been one thing after another, and none of it seems critical or enough to warrant waiting and waiting and delaying and waiting some more. It's just nit-picky stuff that isn't going to make for a better 'product' or experience. I'm done beta testing. I've done my bit. I'd like to see the end result sooner rather than later, and arbitrary release dates and delays don't work for me anymore.

No, waiting for xycraft, ee3, and mystcraft is a waste of time.

they should have a fix date, not saying 1-2 weeks 2 months ago, then saying waiting for 1.4.7, then saying after lite and tech, now for pax east...

I didn't say that was a good answer, but it is probably all we are going to get. If you aren't happy, you can use another FTB pack, make your own pack, or go play Tekkit Lite. I am waiting because I want a good Ultimate Pack. If you would prefer just a released pack, then evidently right now, FTB Ultimate is not for you.

Well, why wait for mods that we know they will take ages to update? simply release now and update later.

yes ..... now he did state aswell tho that they were waiting on the realease of the new mystcraft and an actual realease of ec3 also
Mystcraft could be ready within a week... And ee3 isn't a worldgen mod, so if it's not ready, BFD, add it in an update.

What more is there to discuss??! I don't know, you evidently don't know and the FTB team aren't about to say anything so there is no point in talking about.

EDIT: bwillb: 1.5 could be ready in a week too. And then what? There is a new XyCraft World release coming soon, so that's another reason to wait. And XyCraft Machines will probobly be released before too long. I would say PAX East seems about right honestly.

1 and a half month more, you say it easily because you play lite/dire/mindcrack packs, not like people that are actually waiting.

PS: yeah, then in pax east they will wait till 1.6 because why to do 1.5, then redpower will take 10 years to update, then wait for 1.7, and excuses, excuses everywhere!

Yeah and then at PAX East, 1.6 features may be announced. And then what? There is absolutely zero reason to wait for 1.5, it can be updated to that later. Same with XyCraft Machines. The only reason I see to wait is for the new villagers and dungeon loot in Mystcraft.

I'm not saying that I agree with the FTB team's plan. I'm saying that if that's what is happening, it will happen. And I am NOT playing any other packs. I am waiting for the Ultimate Pack. Just not complaining.

Oh calm down, honestly I'm surprised by the amount of people who want to shut down discussions on this forum.

Then stop waiting and complaining about it and make the pack you want yourself...

92 mods loaded. This is what I did. Took direwolfs pack and added a few things from here and there. Like plugins for forestry 2 (awesome mod) additional pipes, power converters, Minefactory reloaded... lots of cool mods out there guys. Why limit yourself to what someone says is the ultimate pack? Make your own! MultiMC even lets you important mod packs from FTB. The tools are all right there for you to do this yourselves guys.

Why? You only update things when you feel the effort is worth the update. you never have to update something, you just keep it running as it is happily if you don't feel like going through the hassle.

If you WANT the change, updating it should be a non-issue.

If you guys really can't wait, just combine all of the modpacks into one MultiMc instance. Use the configs from either the DW20 modpack or Mindcrack modpack and you'll be set. You may need to change a few ID's here and there, but it's no big deal.

If its a major broken issue I update like I updated to forestry 2. I base it off the direwolf pack so unless he does a major update I tend to let it go on even without the latest version. Its not a huge issue to stop the server swap out the new versions and run the server again. Update my dropbox with the new multimc instance and my friends can join. Its not that hard to keep it up. Getting it all to work without ID conflicts was harder lol
