Texture Render problem

ETA is 10th August (was 27th July)

Something moves to the right 2 weeks, something as pivotal as textures which everything from your UI to the world uses and yet your target remains the same. Project Management at its finest.

Mission System

ETA is 19th July (was 30th June)

Over two weeks delayed on this one, and the product still has that release date.

The team has been making steady progress in completing the various systems. Some of the larger systems like Render to Texture, which contributes to our screens and mobiGlas and will ultimately contribute to ship to ship comms, have been implemented enough for the teams to start using them, that extensive use has been exposing some of the bugs which has caused some additional delays. On the plus side, the delayed proposed release date has allowed some of the ship and weapon refactors that were intended for a future release to be added to the 3.0.0.

No new gameplay but hey! More ship refactoring!! Yay! gently caress you goonies!

Five stages of grief for the 3.0

denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance

April 25th:
- Looks like 3.0 is released in late June. Oh joy! It's going to be a great summer!

June 25th: [Denial]
- Well, looks like 3.0 is released in late July. This is fine! 3.0 will be greater for it and this still going to be the best summer!

July 15th: [Anger]
- Oh, looks like 3.0 is released in late August. Oh god! What are they doing? Will there be still time to play it during summer vacation! Also, I totally called it that last years' demos were all fake. What is their release incentive at this point?

August 15th: [Bargaining]
- Ehm, looks like 3.0 is released after GamesCom. Chirs, are you reading this? Please, release 3.0 before GamesCom, we need something! Anything! I'll buy another collector's if you release 3.0 in whatever state it's in!

October15th: [Depression]
- Welp, looks like no 3.0 for CitCon either. That sucks. Life sucks now forever.

December 31th: [Acceptance]
- You know what? This recent takeover by Coutts is ok. I am FINE with it.The game does not have to release anything. We have our dreams. (why did I not request a refund).

When the four riders of the Crobpocalypse appear on the stage at GamesCom, the end of times is upon us.

According to 11th century history of the riders, only "Thor" was able to single handedly stop them from succeeding........



Is it possible that Dr. Smart (who has supposedly secured a ticket to this event) will rise up in the audience at Gamescom and fulfill the prophecy?

Many people think, that C.R. should have to force some parts a bit more and don't be the perfectionist. But with 3.0 the editor thinks, that they may not have done something huge (content wise), but something that will be the base for a game that can be played for years.

My excerpts from the german article:

It is planned
Normally you would
In the Demo they have problems with the elevators and the physics grid, so they had to use commands.
In one room they find the corpse of the missing person. (Sadly the interaction system in the demo fails) But now 2 enemies are coming from behind and start to fire at you.
Now the people from Gamestar are allowed to play 3.0 by themselves.
Shortly after they used the new nox bike, the game crashed.
With a console command, they teleport to an outpost, which might be part of a mission in 3.0
Not everything that will be in 3.0 could they test. (trading, insurance and stamina).
Many apps and improvements on systems are missing in the demo.


This is good for 3.0

Item 2.0 Multi Function Displays
UI have been implementing these screens while supporting other features, so QA can test each area as soon as possible. While this benefits us from a testing point of view, it has resulted in an overall delay in completion.

Mission System

ETA is 24th July (was 19th June)

Render to Texture
This system is still in progress, but due to its overall size and some of the other features for 3.0.0 that require Render to Texture, teams are using the system as soon as they are able, which means that Render to Texture is requiring bug fixing support while it’s being developed which results in further delays of the system as a whole. The date below does also take dedicated bug fixing time into account.
ETA is 10th August (was 27th July)
