Cats stuck in your system, apparently?

Post by: Okim on August 18, 2014, 02:47:10 AM: My 2 cents.

A patch is a bug-smashing thingy that mainly just fixes broken things. We don't have that many patches for Starsector due to the game being quite bug-free (btw - unlike many other indie games!).

A thingy that brings whole new bunch of stuff (new content) to the game should be called an 'update'.

That`s how I see things :)

P.S. - yeah, I`m aware that officially all the updates released so far are called 'patches'. I tend to overlook these official thigs )

Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Thaago on September 04, 2014, 12:02:57 PM: I'd like to report that I am obscenely busy at the moment, so this is a terrible time to release an update. I most definitely would not spend an entire weekend binge playing.
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Gothars on September 04, 2014, 02:10:18 PM: Dito, now is really not a good time. My academic career kinda depends on you taking your time, Alex!
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Megas on September 04, 2014, 03:15:22 PM: Alex can release whenever he is ready. That does not mean the client is obliged to stop what he is doing to play if the release date is inconvenient to him.

We are not ready
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: bills6693 on September 05, 2014, 07:50:56 AM: Agreed, I have my Admiralty Interview Board from the 16th-18th so if possible could you release it from the 16th onwards?

I disagree that he can release whenever he wants, the client does indeed have an irresistible need to play it when it releases! Especially with the last major release being on the 13th September last year! (with last hotfix in January)
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Hopelessnoob on September 05, 2014, 11:07:29 AM: If we're talking about what this would do for my education and job then I will never be ready, this game sucks away at least a week or two of my life when a new version is out. Then a month or two after that i lose more time to Mods. So you midaswell just cancel the whole thing alex the games just too good for this world.
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: a.c.macauley on September 18, 2014, 06:55:26 PM: I'm ready. I'm more than ready to sink (more than) a few dozen hours into a freshly updated version. I've been checking the blog religiously for months. Please release it soon, so I can play all night without worrying that tomorrow morning will break my save.

Oooooh rough! :D

We know its in the testing/tweaking stage. I'd rather the release be polished and playable (as always) rather than rushed.

Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Hopelessnoob on September 24, 2014, 02:57:00 PM: So since its in testing tweaking stage I suppose that means theres some nice juicy patchnotes????
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Alex on September 24, 2014, 03:17:05 PM: There are :) I should post them up soon, shouldn't I... hmm.

Post by: Luna on September 26, 2014, 01:46:14 PM: Take your time, Alex. We want this update to be awesome to compensate for the fact that we won't be able to use our mods for a little bit. :)
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Gothars on October 02, 2014, 09:31:03 AM: Woooh, I'm finally done! OK, you are free to release now ;D
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Debido on October 02, 2014, 09:40:14 AM: Wait! I need another 17 days!
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Doom101 on October 02, 2014, 12:35:57 PM: if you can release on the 8th or the night of the 7th that'd be awesome, because my employer is going on vacation for a week leaving me with a whole week off, if you were to release then i'd very likely require large amounts of coffee and play the entire week, not sure i can think of a better way to spend a week of vacation :D
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: ciago92 on October 02, 2014, 01:22:33 PM: I'm actually for putting it off, I've got a very busy month ahead so if you could wait til November I could do without the temptation :-P or I can be your scapegoat at least lol
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: Alex on October 02, 2014, 02:27:38 PM: Oh man, all these conflicting demands that I must somehow reconcile. Gamedev is hard, guys :)
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: LazyWizard on October 02, 2014, 02:36:29 PM: While you're at it, could you please avoid releasing on a day of the month that's either a prime number or a perfect square? ;)

Don't forget the moon phase and planets alignments!
Title: Re: Im ready
Post by: bills6693 on October 02, 2014, 05:48:21 PM: I've been given my joining instructions for the Navy for November so if you would kindly release sometime this month so I actually get a chance to play it, that would be just great thanks!

(No internet or free time anyway for first term at training)
