It's been 6 months since the first chapter SQ42 was 2 weeks away. With action such as following the sanitation guy, it could've taken over an hour to do a full play through. Sadly, after most of the 300 employees were working on it last year and some went 8 weeks without sleep, they figured out every animation needed to be retargeted because the AI and animation teams were working against each other and the fundamentals of just walking around an Idris were still "borked".

They appear to still be working on getting the cast of 70 characters to eat lunch.

Now CIG can just blame Mad Katz for going bust and therefore unable to deliver the tism stick they were definitely going to manufacture.

Hit me with your tism stick. Hit me. Hit me.

It's so weird to me that the streamers can pull like 100+ viewers and there are 4 times less people actually playing the game.

I was talking to some developer of viewbots for Twitch. He reckons basically any small channel is going to be running a few hundred bots just to get a foot in the door. They are cheap and there are many of them. Twitch does not do much to prevent them in these small cases.

It was released at 10:40pm UTC on 31st March, so yes it just about made it. For international Citizens further east of the UK, it was released on 1st April: e.g. 0:40am in Berlin, Germany, and 8:40am in Sydney, Australia.

2.6.2 was pushed to live 3hr after a new PTU update was released. Rushed to meet 31st March deadline? Possibly... 140+ bugs have already been posted to the Issue Council including quite a few server connection errors and crashes.

Make you wonder if they had some 'publisher' like deal where to continue some form of funding, they had agreed to (or had to) have this patch out before the end of first (chandler year) quarter.

Edit: Detective Catte will be on to this after his nap (and pats, plus food and maybe another nap and a hunt, then a sleep and some stalking of the humans in his house den).
