Great to see the CIG development team embrace their open development. The team isn't talented enough to actually code a game--but hey at least their are sneaky enough to root out the leakers.

You will definitely see Squadron 42 at CitizenCon. Star Marine will definitely be out in two weeks. 3.0 will definitely be out before the end of 2016. I think I am starting to see the trend.

Hey at least CIG fixed their patcher so you no longer have to download 30GB with each patch. Oh wait... That is every other game. Star Citizen still doesn't have a patcher.

Going by the footage they showed, SM is literally a carbon copy of Dust 514, a game that expired literally weeks after it left public beta.

Considering how they pretty much butcher anything they touch. I am sure that the above is just bullshit they hand out to try and stop people from leaking.
Or the implementation they have is so convoluted they lost the keys to the reveal due to database "shmegma".

They can't release it to everyone because the bandwidth charges the provider would lay on them would wipe out any profit margin they had from the sales. (LoL they have no profit)

Weren't they supposed to release a new patcher or launcher or update tool whatever, to allow people to download only the needed data for the patch instead of 30 GBs or so every time?

Is this happening for 2.6 or...?

Subscrbers do. Other PTU users are more active in reporting and confirming bugs than others.

Here you go: https://translate.google.com/

Cut and paste the patch notes. Pick a language--Czech feels appropriate. Translate. Then translate back to English. Poof--obfuscated patch notes.

Nothing cracks me up more than when these broken twats have to parse every sentence out like this in their attempt to dissect it to get their pedantic narrative shoehorned in. I like to read these as if I am watching an actual conversation and wonder just how long that would take before someone just slapped one of these spergs with an open hand right across their mouth.

A light wind swept over the corn, and all nature laughed in the sunshine.
since CIG is remaining silent, I feel like INN (recursive) should be letting people know that star marine is not yet available to play in the current evocati build. Please discuss this with the rest of the staff MoMA.

I was not incorrect in claiming that 2.6 was going live to Evocati.
Also, StarMarine is technically in the build:

"Data/Levels/FPSModule/FPS_Demien/level.pak",
"Data/Levels/FPSModule/FPS_Echo11/level.pak",
"Data/Levels/FPSModule/FPS_Loadout/level.pak",
"Data/Levels/FPSModule/FPS_Loadout/terraintexture.pak",

However, the actualy FPS StarMarine is not ready for testing in this first evocati build. It'll come though.
