Something in the Bin Devs?

Aug 06, 2013 idd link
We haven't had an update for a while now, is there something major or big in the bin?

Might just be a large chunk of code got stuck in the pipeline and the Devs are busy trying to snake it out.

Then again they may be in the middle of a week long party.

The only way we are going to know for sure is by the arrest reports or the devs next news report....

Either way be patient. they will eventually get back to us.

We've had some people traveling recently, plus juggling various goals that have specific time-critical requirements. But, we're aiming for a release on Friday with some updates. I'll try to post some News along with that.

In my line of work we try to under-promise and over-perform. I would suggest tacking an extra week or so on to your estimated release times.

in all lines of work you under-promise and over-perform, it's a basic psychological principle.

But uh, well, there are things here that were supposed to be implemented years ago, lulz.

I always thought that principle was funny anyway, the trick is to promise nothing at all and you win!

Ray was still testing for release on Friday night, but there was just too much stuff to make it in over the weekend. A lot of different possible use-cases of code that updates here, but has to function with the old version there, and so on. High risk of breaking stuff, without really thorough testing.

I expect the update on Monday. It isn't going to be a huge epic patch, but it'll have some improvements, bugfixes, attempts to remove annoyances and so on.

There has been some time put into some upcoming improvements, which I had to basically.. halt on Friday, as it just wasn't up to what I want yet.

Sorry I didn't post about it earlier. I intended to write a newspost on Sat, and then became distracted by something like the amazing weather outside.

Even developers need to soak up the sun! Otherwise they'll turn into vampires :P

I think we better start watching whats in the pizza sauce. Incarnate did look a bit pale in his last video.

I keep telling you guys to quit with the weekend updates. Tuesday is a much better day for releasing stuff.
Less "go fever" and other pressures to contend with and fewer days that exploits and bugs can go unchecked as well.

Besides its hard to get work done on a friday when the weather is fabulous.
