Soooo, this has been in testing for 2 weeks now and it usually never is. Now I get that unforeseen bugs and issues might have cropped up preventing a release last week, and I understand not wanting to do it on the 24th, but was kinda hoping for today! Since that’s not happening it’s rather doubtful it will be tomorrow on a Friday and next Monday is the 31st.

So I want to know what you guys are aiming for, next week, January 2? Or??

Blame Sony, they don’t like updates coming out over Christmas.

We’re unable to publish updates to the PS4 version between Christmas and New Year. We tried really hard to get the update ready before the break. But ultimately concluded a stable version was the priority and if something major was discovered then we’d not have been able to patch the PS4 versions.

We are targeting the first full week of January for the Guilds and Messaging release.

Wait, what? People expect the devs to work over the holidays just so that they can enjoy a finer degree of entertainment on their own time off?

Just no.

The devs are people who put their trousers^H soiled loincloths on one leg at a time like (most of) the rest of us do. They deserve a decent break in which to rest and recharge their batteries and come back refreshed and more productive in the new year. I hope none of them, even james, have a single though of helixes and footfall for a full week.

Some people shouldn’t be allowed to have children if they’re going to turn out like this.

My work usually shuts down between Christmas and New Year’s as well (except the military branch) so this is no new concept to me. As long as the game is still running smooth.
Most ppl have so much going on right now anyway, I tend to ignore or forget about game updates this time of year. So I’m kinda thankful there’s no major update.

Take this time to refresh!

@james Thanks for the update! Hope you guys can get some time off to enjoy the new year!

Thank you or the update James! I rather know then hoping it will come sooner! :slight_smile:

Who does? I didn’t. Since today is a normal workday for most people it would’ve been possible to release today and I was just hoping to get a relase date.

Classy, very, very classy, ahem! Perhaps take a good look at what you wrote, sjeesh!

straightens bowtie and adjusts monocle before re-reading what he wrote

I stand by my opinion. I’m a software developer, I know how releases work. Expecting a release to be available after two days of statutory holiday that come after a two-day weekend, with a single working day in between which is unlikely to have been productive outside of a pub for local cultural reasons, would require that people be in and working on their weekend and holidays. That’s unacceptable in civilized cultures and we only relatively recently welcomed the Brits into that category so don’t scare them off.

Oh, and your mom. So there.

which blocks?

Good for you, me too.

Bad assumption right here. I thought it would’ve been ready right before Christmas (which was correct, BTW) and thought they wouldn’t want to risk releasing it on Monday 'cos they would not be able to patch bugs until after Christmas (which was partly correct, didn’t count on Sony).

You then had the audacity to tell me that if one expects such things that my parents shouldn’t have had any children.

So…

Combined with that little tidbit actually means that you’re not a very nice person and one then has to wonder if your parents shouldn’t have had any either.

Still ok with everything you wrote??

Keep it on topic please. Discuss the game. Take your personal quibbles to PM’s.

The ones from the roadmap I think.

Also, new blocks = new planets too right? :wink:

It seems the roadmap is saying the Hunter and new blocks will be the next update after guilds.

Updated OP of details of Testing 210.7.
