SHOW US THE COOKIES

It is still in the pipeline.

I do actually kind of like to say something because I sort of get annoyed sometimes when I see this pop up in comments like “Oh cookies are cancelled or where’s Sentient Bread!?” Sentient Bread was just a baked good for people to eat the flour-based elements of Choc Chipizen until we could combine everything together: Flying, walking around, eating, doing all the rest of the stuff, all together, that is what is in reality 2.0, that’s what is reality 2.1.

With CC Alpha 2.0 onwards, you have basically what we were planning to do from Choc Chipizen and from the very very beginning. If you could go back and look at the original pitch we didn’t say “Hey we’re doing Sentient Bread“ We said we will have flour-based elements and cookies, well you have flour-based elements and you have cookies right now and so what’s really happening is there will not be features that will only be for Sentient Bread outside a sort of competition mode and scoring that isn’t going to be in the game and so we’re actually rolling out the Sentient Bread features.

I'm feeling something new...something...I'm happy??!!
DISCO: Hello backers and welcome to the holiday stream! Today we are joined by the head Emperor himself, Chris Roberts!

*Chris is shown with a strained, wide smile on his face. His bloodshot eyes are wide open, vibrating. A tiny stream of spittle is leaking from his clenched teeth*

DISCO: Chris, the internet is talking non-stop about 2.6. But some, and I hate to say trolls but we all know who they are, are saying that 2.6 is in fact not the giant leap forward we promised. What do you say to that?

*Chris continues to sit still, staring ahead with a maniacal expression. Disco pats him on the shoulder, making him jump three feet off his seat*

CHRIS: MOTHERFUCKER DON'T YOU EVER TO--*looks at camera and calms down*--Yes, Yes I do random employee.

DISCO: I'm Disco Lando...I've been with this project...

CHRIS: Yes yes I'm sure that is fascinating. But I am here to dispel some of the flagrant lies that have been spread around the internet about my masterpiece. And because this is the holiday season I find it only appropriate to say...

*Chris takes a deep breath and puts on his best fake smile*

CHRIS: 2.6 was inside us all along.

DISCO *Nodding, sagely*: Heavy stuff man. I think speaking for myself, and all the backers who have kept this project alive, that we knew all along 2.6 was inside us. Okay, so now we will...

*Chris fiddles with his hands as Disco continues to talk.*

CHRIS: Inside us all. *louder* INSIDE US ALL!

*Chris smacks table, startling Disco.*

DISCO: Um..

CHRIS: I'll prove it! Prove it to you all!

*Chris takes out a dagger and plunges it deep into Disco's gut. Chris starts to tear the dagger upwards*

CHRIS: IT'S INSIDE US! INSIDE US! I'LL SHOW YOU IT'S INSIDE US!

*Chris starts to spill the insides of Disco onto the desk as the livestream cuts out*

Strange that no one has posted the patch notes, or there has been much chatter about the FPS stuff (or really any other part of the patch). Citizens love to feel like insiders, and having special access to stuff (even MOMA does it). So you'd think one of them would be only too happy to let us know how much fun they are having and what we are missing out on. Even if it's only to gloat over the Derek and the doubters. I guess we will see in two weeks, if we are any closer to release. It will be quite a test of faith.

The patch notes are tailored to different people involved in the evocati. There are minuscule changes in the text, copy and content designed to lead to those who leak the notes. Same goes for evocati test builds.

I was not incorrect in claiming that 2.6 was going live to Evocati.
Also, StarMarine is technically in the build:

"Data/Levels/FPSModule/FPS_Demien/level.pak",
"Data/Levels/FPSModule/FPS_Echo11/level.pak",
"Data/Levels/FPSModule/FPS_Loadout/level.pak",
"Data/Levels/FPSModule/FPS_Loadout/terraintexture.pak",

However, the actualy FPS StarMarine is not ready for testing in this first evocati build. It'll come though.
