We all love to be pedantic here. Stepping back, CIG is implementing yet another patch that you said could not be done. You said it with 2.0, and we got 2.4 and 2.5 out of it that introduced more clients, more play and even larger maps/scenes/whatever other word you insert here for a game space where players exist (see: your hilarious back-and-forth with Ben Parry on ED forums).

1/2/3/4 weeks late: whatever Smart. They're still going to get there and it'll be yet another milestone that you claim could not be done, "like - at all,"

And you know what, Smart? I hope they sell even more ships to get there. I hope people pledge the gently caress out of those ships because each pledge/sale/donation/whatever that they get is 'x' more $$$$ that gets you going daily. It's entertaining.
"implementing yet another patch that you said could not be done" We are talking about an FPS using an FPS engine. I know some fourteen year old coders that can make it happen. Nobody has said you can't make an FPS using an FPS engine. I think that is why so many of us here are baffled at why CIG has been touting an FPS since April 2015 but still has NOTHING to show. Derek never said it can't be done. But Chris Roberts sure is proving that he has no clue how to do it.

1/2/3/4/86/144 weeks late: whatever Smart.

I will say with 100% confidence that I am sure the Holiday Livestream ship sales will happen on time with zero snags.

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

isn't it more about cig saying something will be in the patch and it actually being there as advertised rather than squeaking out a few buggy updates and slapping a new number on it

Like, I knew that CryENGINE was an FPS engine, but I hadn't realized that the CryENGINE 3 SDK literally had tutorials for how to set up and run multiplayer deathmatches with 32 players right out of the box

I thought I couldn't be any more underwhelmed by CIG's almost achievement with Star Marine, but here we are

Star Marine: :effort:

If anything, because there are so many tutorials out there, Star Marine will probably end up the best part of the game.

I'm still catching up and I know MoMA doesn't read these but I want to comment on how hilarious the goalpost shifting has gotten.

At Gamescom, MoMA and backers both were expecting procedural planets this year. 3.0 guys. With that comes cargo/trading, new netcode, missions, a full stanton. The dream was real.

Fast forward to December. MoMA is being shitlord about whether or not Star Marine technically is in the patch if it isn't actually playable and the goal for 2016 seems to be getting out the decade old 4v4 FPS arena shooter 86 weeks late in year 5 of development in a FPS engine.

Hey, I'm not handing out advice. If you want advice, feel free to ask, but unless it's about toy robots I'm probably not a good person to ask. Just trying to understand behaviour that doesn't make sense to me. You enjoy shouting at clouds, got it. Proceed. I hope shouting into the void is everything you hope it will be. :)

A light wind swept over the corn, and all nature laughed in the sunshine.
So the most current info we have about 2.6 so far:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Starcitizen_Leaks/comments/5fnd8p/evocati_leaks_updated_regularly/

quote:

-Cat crashes PU server when spawned (Also the patch notes say the caterpillar is flyable... but then "known issues" says not to spawn one in crusader because it will crash the server. So, gently caress if I know where we can actually fly the thing.)

-There is conflicting information on the status of Evocati with sources leening towards it not being released. If anyone who reads this is from Evocati or knows someone from Evocati, please post some proof in the form of a screenshot. Blur out all identifying info before posting so your not kicked off though.

-There was a leaked issue council video with the new HUD taken down. (http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=rb9qiu&s=9#.WD8kdOArLnA)

-Guns are either nerfed or Vanduul ship stats have been boosted. No conclusive proof has come from either side other than vaduul ships now taking more shots to kill.

-Cruise and Afterburner are gone and have been combined into a standalone mechanic.

now imagine attempting to use this patch as a reason to gloat about CIG's progress. :thumbsup:

The patch notes are tailored to different people involved in the evocati. There are minuscule changes in the text, copy and content designed to lead to those who leak the notes. Same goes for evocati test builds.

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.

You must be a lawyer. Or at the very least, a shyster.

The thread's silly and stupid and bad but I love it and you're making GBS threads it up with garbage

The stuff about "don't spawn a Caterpillar" seems kind of odd to me - surely that's just something CIG can disable temporarily.

Someone doesn't remember how difficult it is for CIG to disable something in their clusterfuck of code. How long did it take for the tutorial to get switched off?

If you don't think Derek is wrong and lies about just as much as Chris does then lol. Unfortunately he can just use the, "I WAS ONLY PRETENDING TO BE RETARDED RELEASE A BLOG" excuse whenever he misses a deadline or something. Arguing with him is pointless but funny and since Lazrin is gone I'll allow Cactus and D1E to fill the void.
