Originally by: Real Poison cool i hope the new beta client will be ready when i get home this evening.
I hoped for it to be done before DT today, but it wasn't. I wonder if it will be done today as promised or if it will once more be SoonÖ with no ETA.

Originally by: Reyn Atriedes So what's the good word Casqade?
I'm sure he's doing his best.
I'm not sure I'll have the client when I'll be back from dinner.

Originally by: Lebastor With the current beta-state of the Sisi, there is not much point of wanting to test Apocrypha stuff but the new Cider-side would be nice to see.
Having a little bit of experience in CD/DVD replication and distributio, I'd be surprised if they can delay the gold master for another week. I'm 100% sure they will need to go golden with an unfinished client and then let all those buying the boxes in march download a patch.
Nonetheless there are a lot of things I'd love to comment upon but cannot because all I know of the beta is from published screenshots.
What I'm most worried about is that I foresee a lot of problems for march 10 deployment. I'm affraid most players will be unable do play for a couple of days or more. I'm crossing my fingers.

Originally by: Rees Noturana They already announced that the version in the box went to press sometime in January I think. It was a special version of QR between 1.0.4 and 1.0.5 with the Premium content loaded for Mac to help reduce the patch size.
I missed that announcement. Do you have a pointer? That's anyway what I would have also done.

Originally by: Maria Kalista I might be biting my tongue in 4 weeks, but it cannot be worse then when Trinity hit the 'shelves', can it? Until proven wrong, I keep with the believe that CCP & Co. have learned something from that 'experience'.
Hopefully they did. But they did not learn the "do not talk deadlines untill you know you can meet them".
They now MUST meet the march 10 deadline. It's not like they can handle it the way they handled the "Mac dev blog coming next week" deadline.
I'm not CCP. But according to the reports I hear of current SiSi status, that's were they should have been in early november to even consider a march 10 deadline.

Originally by: Reyn Atriedes Day 4. 'Nuff said.
Yea. And they nerfed Casqade work schedule too: he's now working only 25 hours a day.
We love you guys. It's your masters that we dislike.

Originally by: DauntlessK Only 25 hours a day??? thats one more hour than is possible! poor guy.
That's what CCP Casqade does in idle mode. You do not want to know what he does in Chuck Norris mode :)

Originally by: Reyn Atriedes I know, ironic, right? I think it would be very comical for CCP to roll out the patch today, just to irk us.
It would be very comical for CCP not to roll out the new build AS SOON AS IT IS READY. It's not a question of irking us. It's a question of getting as much as possible done before march 10. And given what I have seen earlier when I borrowed a friend's Mac that has a Bootcamped Vista setup and spent a dozen minutes on SiSi, they need all staff to work 25 hours a day if they want to have it about 50% ready in time. |

Originally by: Maria Kalista /Me is starting to collect bandages for the coming blood-fest when I've to bite my tongue....
Does that mean you managed to go to SiSi with the eretic client? I did take advantage of a friend that has the thing bootcamped to have a look. And that's why I'm so scared.
In the 5 minutes I have been there I've seen so many problems that I could have spent several hours writing bug reports. It was in such an horrible state that I do not even think it is worth debugging at all: problems are so evident that no developer that runs the client can miss them. It felt like if they deployed it only to collect data for T3 balancing purposes.
Very scary!
