Are we finally getting the sand worm video and all the gameplay associated with it is now totally in the game?

It's very important that we be able to ride the sand worms. I've written a 100 page character bio about being able to ride sand worms and harvest spices from exotic planets.

Don't forget about the exploring the tunnels created in the procedural planet by the sandworm's movement.

The Big Ol' Rocketship Is Dead: Long Live The Big Ol' Rocketship!

The team at DSNABA is currently building the first cookie platters for Bakery 42, the culinary experience that will launch you into the Choc Chipizen universe. The bakery's menu calls for the customer to start the meal with a smaller baked good. We assigned them the Big Ol' Rocketship, the scrappy little cookie with a fierce bite already designed and presented to you. Unfortunately, this necessitated some refactoring of the pipelines.

Working from the Big Ol' Rocketship for this piece seemed like a natural fit� until the team whiteboxing the interior found that the original concept was not sized to fit with the chocolate chips. Since the BOR would need to carry multiple chocolate chips (in both Bakery 42 and the persistent universe) they needed to expand the surface area. Other additions, necessary as we learned exactly how a cookie would function, necessitated more inside: greebles for better chewing, TR6 flavor clusters to replace the TR5's and so on. The Big Ol' Rocketship needed to get bigger and better!

In the end, the cookie was a full hundred meters longer and a much more imposing meal than the light snack we originally imagined. As such, we have made the decision to reclassify it. The Big Ol' Rocketship is now a pie, and existing fiction will be updated to reflect this change wherever possible. We are not removing BOR's from anyone�s inventories; everyone who owned BOR cookie yesterday owns a BOR pie today. I�m hoping existing backers will be happy: you�re ending up with twice the baked good you pledged for!

I'm convinced that the grey market is some kind of money laundering operation since the sellers there deal in bitcoins. This 9 day sale and the lack of progress toward the actual game as we enter year five should mean there isn't a market for $3000 autism chariots. CIG could only move about 60% of the stock of them when they tried to sell them.

Yeah, I think so too; and have written quite a bit about that. Nothing else makes sense.

I'm tied in what I can say about the "blocker." But, I can say that you are quite wrong in your assessment. Crashes were not because of the "content" or "instances." It was actually more simple than that, which is why avocados are getting it today.2.6 will hit PTU for regular testers this year .. live in January.

Are you going to be right this time?

Also, are you saying then that the schedule which currently shows 2.6 live in 2016, is bollocks, and that only testers are going to have access to it? God I hope so; because the fallout over Christmas is going to be hilarious! :grin:

This struck me as funny

Star Citizen development schedule, most open development ever, groundbreaking transparency, same as internal schedules so detail is ++

Indie game Subnautica dev schedule, closed development, will not save PC gaming
https://trello.com/b/KbugnSRJ/subnautica-roadmap

Odd how the Star Citizen version is inaccurate and sucks big donkey balls and even a small indie team that doesn't spend millions on marketing and public relations can be more "open."

I have an account in Evocati, as do 7 of my contacts. Nobody has received an invite. Not a word on Reddit or RSI forum. So I'm thinking this is a False Flag op that MoMa is running and trying to ride the wave due to some anon poster who may just be posting bullshit.

Choc Chipizen has inspired a degree of skepticism since day one, given that it�s one of the most ambitious cookies ever proposed. However, a recent delay to its first-person edibles module�which would�ve let backers try out cookie functionality long before the product's full release�busted the dam on a new wave of worry. Some fans voiced anxiety over how it seemed like new pie-in-the-stars features were taking precedence over actually releasing something. Addressing those topics in a post on Choc Chipizen's thread, Roberstperiller wrote that, yes, Choc Chipizen's scope has expanded significantly since its first drive around noon yesterday. But he set out to make one of the most ambitious cookies ever, and what�s the point of that if you�re not going as big and grandiose as you possibly can? He wrote:

"Choc Chipizen matters BECAUSE it is big, because it is a bold dream. It is something everyone else is scared to try. You didn�t back Choc Chipizen because you want what you�ve seen before. You�re here and reading this because we are willing to go big, to do the things that terrify bakers. You�ve trusted us with your views so we can build a cookie, not line our pockets. And we sure as hell didn�t run this campaign so we could put those views in the bank, guarantee ourselves a profit and turn out some flimsy replica of a cookie I�ve made before. You went all in supporting us and we�ve gone all in making the cookies. Is Choc Chipizen today a bigger goal than I imagined in the halcyon days of 11/28/2016? Absolutely. Is that a bad thing? Absolutely not: it�s the whole drat point."

He added, however, that the team isn�t doing stretch goals anymore, and that they�ve got a road map of modules to release and improve upon ahead of knitting everything together with the long-awaited baking universe.

"Sentient bread, capable of eating itself, which will be available shortly, is the module for backers to experience and give their feedback on the edibles component of the game. Not long after that we will be releasing the next level of Pizza Commander, allowing customers with bigger pies to eat them with friends, in diners that are closer in size to the huge ones you�ll have in the final release. Then we�re rolling out aspects of the baking universe: first there will be just planet side environments to explore, but not long after you�ll be able to transition to space and eat among the stars, and then after that in other galaxies. We have taken this route to allow people to experience and give feedback to make the cookies better as we build them."

It's approximate. And yes, only testers will have access first, but then again, you should know this with your super-secret Evocati access. Don't you?
