So 2.6.2 *was* released on time. I'm actually shocked.

I'm sorry MoMA, I owe you and your super-secret sources an apology.

Of course, it's only something called 2.6.2 and it doesn't fix or improve anything but it is there, and it's named 2.6.2 so it counts.

Of course, the best thing about this is that we'll get the updated schedule in 14 days. Sure, it's supposed to be posted next Friday but I have the suspicion they'll forget about it, then reddit will bitch, then the Hobo will post about it next Saturday and so on.

It was supposed to go live the 23rd

Have they ever explained the weird model spaghettification bugs in any of the streams or episodes they put online? I know it's a CryEngine thing but they're just so interesting to me.

Didn't they have like a part of their show where that one nerdy dude "SMASHES BUGS" or is that just really dumb simple stuff? This may have ended years ago I usually only watch the stream events.

To be fair, monthly patches would be really hard with the massive amount of content CIG is pushing out.

In 2016 we got a basic inventory save, a new lovely space station, space pants shopping, and babbys first cryengine fps mod with 2 whole maps.

Even factoring in Chris meddling to be this unproductive at least 300 of the 400 employees must be interns and fresh graduates.

They redo guns and ships over and over in an effort to train people up to the eventual universe building. Then anyone remotely competent or ethical leaves which necessitates another year of refactoring guns and ships.

No, MoMA talked with some really secret sources and they said that it would go live before the month was over, not the 23rd. And guess what you goonie? It did! Which means mOma's sources are real and derek's suck.

Remember when they said patches would not be feature-dependent and this would give them the freedom to publish one every month even if there were problems with one of the expected features? I remember.

They used to only be vertically oriented (no need to rotate but you get the light coverage) and the practice was called 'vertical farming' but now there are horizontal units as well

For context, this thing lets an individual account place a pixel on a very large canvas once every 5-10 minutes. It's not terribly hard to place some pixel art and maintain against random noise pixels given even modest coordination among a couple dozen users. So this serves as kind of a barometer of community size/engagement.
