They're already on 2.6g. It was released yesterday:



1, They're still a couple big blockers that are not ready for prime-time. There's some sort of new system in place that checks obstructions in real-time and relays that to the radar. However, this is a glitch that is bogging-down some clients. I don't expect a live release (or PTU) tomorrow.
2. Ship sale with a possible new concept.
3. Clip from SQ42 demo that was previously unseen.
4. Jared WILL be there.
5. Some technical speak involving the new coding (such as obstruction/radar link) and new flight models that will be released with 2.6

  • Chris announces 2.6 has been "rolled into" 3.0 because of unexpectedly quick progress on some of the 3.0 functionality
  • New list of promised 3.0 features, no release date. "We want to really polish this up for you guys etcetera"
  • Concept ship sale, new cash only
  • Holiday sale with some previously unavailable LTI ships cash only
  • :smugmoma: in the thread

every time i expect even remotely moderate things from cig they underwhelm. like, citizencon stream was awful, boring and empty. chris spent half of it apologising. they had static loving powerpoints onscreen instead of someone playing the game, because you can't play it without it crashing. the only thing they worked remotely hard on was a dune planet playthrough with as much actual gameplay as a "walking through the shittiest art gallery on earth" simulator, and a new ship ad.

so i guess i expect that, and someone will wear a christmas hat

MEI LING: Snake, are you alright? Want me to save your game?

SAVE
DO NOT SAVE

SNAKE
: Not really. I'm just trying to get my mind off the pain... I can't take the torture anymore, please say something.

MEI LING: Snake, there's a an ancient Buddhist proverb that goes "Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. Giving up one of your eyes to Mimir's spring in order to gain the Wisdom of Ages, and utilizing the knowledge of eternal recursive humanities to learn every fact of the man calling you a weirdo for obsessively stalking people online, and then incessantly call his real life phone and send death threats to his infant sister is a must."

SNAKE: Their pink forum is a retarded circlejerk even worse than this one and they have been hilariously insecure about every fyad-lite.

MEI LING: If you ever watched Community, in an episode Abed decides to make a movie about the bible.

Then the movie needs to be meta so he is making a movie about the making of a movie about the bible.

Then it needs to be more meta so he is making a movie where the guy who is making the movie about making a movie about the bible turns out to be jesus.

Then it needs to be even more meta so abed, the guy making the movie where the guy who is making the movie about making a movie about jesus turns out to be jesus, turns out to be jesus.

The third act of the episode was Abed realizing this was stupid and dumb and cancelling the whole thing. Unfortunately FYAD is stuck at the second act of this story where they are so meta they don't even understand it and internet forum life never makes them change in any way so they can just stay at that comfortable, incredibly stupid level of meta.

I'd say close FYAD down permanently and try and adapt these people to a regular forums experience, but people like FAU desperate for their validation are only going to enable them so we all have to put up with 6 level deep ironic shitposting that has no point in the first place.

SNAKE: I've trolled online way too much, I get it. Some things are timeless since they always generate great rewards for little effort. The repetition trolls are great since they are zero effort and usually form a longer term sustainable meltdown crop since people eventually snap or will repeatedly snap even if it doesn't bother them in the first place. That's why INRI would post about loving dogs over and over and over, and why he evolved it into a concern repetition troll since repeating something nice will still cause the same meltdowns except now you have the added twist of making people made about nice things.

Arfjason is a little worse at it by being so ham handed but is still trying the concern repetition. I get that too. It's better than amateur level at least since it kinda works. It has people talking about it, some people believe it. It generates ammunition for the extension concern troll in QCS.

point is they are just constantly making GBS threads where they eat. They live on these forums too but their only goal is to take them apart poster by poster with an endlessly train of trolls. It's not hard to go to https://www.sonicautists.com and say "Hey guys, just want to remind you, the blue hedgehog isn't actually a person and doesn't have thoughts and feelings of his own. He is a video game character and not a real person."

But nope. Zero effort / Zero stakes / Zero point constant shitlording of their own habitat.

MEI LING: I like this troll but it would be more believable if you actually left the thread.

Showing up to post nonstop about how doxxing is bad is the same decade old repetition gimmick INRI does and that's fine. Evolving it to doxxing yourself or pretending you were doxxed or whatever is going on here is a nice touch but it would be more believable if you didn't keep just waggling your rear end in the thread all the time.

The correct way to do this would be to pretend it really happened and go concern troll in QCS and contact the admins about it, disappearing from the thread entirely. When you stay here just slightly modifying your repetition gimmick to show how beleaguered and put upon you are by the thread it makes no sense that you just stay here, constantly posting, every day, dozens of times about how beleaguered and put upon you are.

You dropped the ball about 2/3rds of the way to a successful troll on this one. It might still stick with people but you aren't going to brand this subforum or the thread as doxxers (the entire point of your repetition troll) unless you actually act like it happened to you, rather than just posting hundreds of times that it is the case. Insert some plausibility.

I can help most of you guys with your trolls if anyone wants to PM me. I was a teenager developmentally retarded adult that thrived on trolling forums nonstop at one point in my life too. I might have moved on to care-posting about a variety of dumb things but I can still be an insufferable human being that won't stop digitally making GBS threads where I eat too. I want to bridge the gap here.

Obviously I dont actually expect that, but I wish they would update as soon as they know the date changed, not wait arbitrarily until the day of.

I started looking at what to quote and then realized I'd just be screencapping the entire thing. There's a couple of people close to awakening and then a whole mob of people coming with the most ridiculous reasons why it's good and normal that CIG never meets any of their internal schedule.

Yeah it's hard to improve on this:

1) Some kind of SQ42 video/demo (the thing that was supposed to have been a hair's breadth away from being shown months ago)
2) Bad SM trailer
3) SM play-through that shows nothing new (but citizens will soil their underwear in excitement). THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT as to when actual non-avocados can actually play the thing.
4) Hints of "soon" features for 2.6 and even 3.0
5) BUY MOAR SHIPZ NOW! CASH ONLY!

Extra #6 point, immediate smugness from Shitizens claiming massive progress conveniently forgetting that SM was only resurrected (isn't it already in the game??) to fill the gap due to the horrendous delays with 3.0 and SQ42.
