Good luck.

Incarnate, you might just want to copy and paste this into an apology thread:

"
Software developement never works out right yadayadayada...
Sorry it won't be hear yadayadayada...
We'll have it in a week yadayadayada...
or two...
or a month...
or a year...
well, we'll have it yadayadayada...
and, here's another carrot dangle yadayadayada...
and uh... well... bye. don't riot for your money back or anything...
"

Thanks for letting me rant. Doesn't mean I'm not obsessed with the game, it just means I'm SO obsessed that I can't wait another day. :D

/me thinks he does a pretty good Incarnate imitation!

Just of note, the last client-side update was September 17th. That's seventy-two days, one fifth of a year, or 6,220,800,000,000,000 nanoseconds.

While you're waiting, I reccommend the excellent freeware arcade games Gunroar and -especially- Torus Trooper.

Pleasantly surprise the community, Incarnate. Just this once. Please.

That said, if ya got "show stopper" bugs, screw the release.

Umm, I definitely didn't promise a client update today. Based on what I'm hearing from my coworkers, a lot of parts of the server side Michael/Andy NPC project are nearly ready to release, but it'll probably be tomorrow evening before we figure out what's what and if it's ready. I'll post an update then.

It's a matter of statistics.

I think Wednesdays are pretty popular too.

It used to be Fridays (well, Saturdays EST...) back before all this retail junk...

Gah. I'd like to see a release just ONCE without any prior notice at all. Just a nice little "Patching to <new version>..." when I run the updater.

There has never been an update monday. It's been a meeting monday, where the developers all get in a circle and do talk about stuff. I'm betting they discuss what type of M&M's they like.
Nov 28, 2005 Doukutsu link
A very important thing to discuss, mind you.
Nov 28, 2005 roguelazer link
Not really. Everybody knows the blue ones taste the best.
Nov 28, 2005 mdaniel link
Did anyone ever find the grey M&M?

I like peanut M&Ms.
Nov 28, 2005 Celkan link
Peanut BUTTER M&M's.

Or those rice ones. those were good.
Nov 28, 2005 mdaniel link
oh, no, peanut butter are the BEST.

I'm not really certain, but at least for a while, Tuesday was "update day." Not every
Tuesday but once-in-a-while....

How about relaxing a bit? As the game gets "bigger" additions become more complex. I'd like some more stuff too, but all in good time.
