[GS] Future Update?

[Eagle Pursuit]

But did they give us the placebo or the real drug?

So if we don't hear anything about an Expansion/Patch, then there both IS and ISN'T going to be and Expansion/Patch.

@FXS_MisterKevin If you have a cat, this is a good time to post a picture of him inside a box.

There are 2 things I like in this world... not tainting the purity of speculation and tainting the purity of speculation.

So if there is no patch tomorrow, then we have to wait for a month for fixes to the bugs/issues?

- Pantheon bug breaks MP (and any kind of competitive single player).
- Admiral flanking bug breaks combat.
- Primordial maps take ~80 turns before any disaster actually happens, due to the map having to activate every single volcano (which uses up the 1 disaster per turn allowed) before triggering disasters.
- Pathfinding is STILL broken.

These are not small issues.

Could still be next week, no?

Second Vermont Republic confirmed!

So, how do we bait lurking devs into posting something they shouldn't?

Hey wait! Haven't we done that already? (this morning European witching hour)

But did they give us the placebo or the real drug? It reassures me they'll be releasing the code as soon as they are done with adding new mechanics, and they haven't yet because they're still working on something: Schrödinger's rumor mill.

Self-vulcanizing tyre patch confirmed.

You do that by starting a thread on 'Korea needs a rework' and then slooooowly lead into 'Korean Pop Band Unique Unit'.

But Unique is no noun!?!

Could still be next week, no?

Yeah, Eagle Pursuit said Thursday, iirc.

 

[Cerilis]

Suspicious. Really suspicious.

I mean I'd prefer an expansion announcement or a patch but I'll never say no to cat pictures

 

[cvb]

Cat pictures? And I thought, leandrombraz meant the cat shall take the picture with him, MisterKevin, in the box ... silly me!

We baited one into posting, but he seems to be a master in the dark arts of saying things without really saying anything. I still don't know what's going on or if anything is even happening.

Just confirms that MisterKevin is leaving Firaxis and running for the US Congress.

Would Kevin have come in here all cheery and telling jokes if something wasn't planned to be announced soon?

Hmmm...

(also the smiley above looks kind of funny and I need an excuse to use it)

Sarah used to do that just to taunt us. I think literally the only person that HASN'T done a taunting post is Sid Meir.

Eagle Pursuit is the expert on these things:

The Linux qa build updated again this morning. So I think that eliminates Tuesday as a possible patch day. It will either be Thursday or not until January.

And how long would it be between these taunts and actual content coming out?

 

[aguaacrobata2]

Mac qa build also just updated

 

[sonicmyst]

I know I don't like to post in these kinds of conversations because it taints the purity of the speculation

But it would be extremely fun if you chime in!
At least one hint you drop will make this thread explode. Try it.
