Are we going to get a shout when it's ready to download?

 

[unlike them]

So I cleaned my room, turned on the christmas lights and stockpiled on tea to last me through the winter. I am ready.

 

[amazombie]

[Kosmic Kerman]

the day 19 passes fast and soon it will be 20, what happened with the update? only promises to keep people

TFP you have broken your promise to people on the other side of the international date line. How can you live with yourself? /s

Huh, I always thought Joel was the owner/founder of TFP.

He's one of three. Joel/brother Rick/ (non brother)Chris.

JR&C?

You might be assuming that party members get 100% of the kill xp. I doubt this is the case.

Every member added to the party drops xp by 10% So a party of 4 each get 60% the xp a single player would get.

I hate to put it to you guys.. but I honestly dont think it will come out today.. maybe by friday.. come on we all know how they are when it comes to timely things. Heck even the streamers didnt get it released timely.. it was over 2 hours late before they got their hands on it. I would be surprised if it came out today.. tbh

JR&C?

Jersey?

Better to release it shortly before your normal office hours tomorrow morning.

If there is a serious issue (way more people will be testing it after public release) you could hack together a hotfix....

 

[pvwolfgang420]

surprise surprise, streamers not trustworthy and their friends got the early access codes

 

[joecrack]

Ох парни. У нас в России она еще позже выйдет. Примерно 20 ноября в 3:00 утра. Ждём. Надеюсь выйдет. :rapture:

Well, she streams netflix while doing other things, it adds up. HD streaming is about 3gb per hour, so if she streams that for say 10 hours a day (even if she only watches 3 hours), that alone is 30gb from her alone. Add me, etc. and it goes up. 30gb a day min, 30 days a month (for easier comparisons), so 900gb there alone. That then doesn't include me gaming, her streaming, phones being on it, etc.
But once you figure in that not all is HD, some SD, some days will be shorter, etc. etc., it comes out to be about 500gb alone that is used just for sound . So yeah, a lot of it can easily be cut out and made hard to hit, but ya know, I just hate limits, lol. And for how expensive Cox is, should just be built in unlimited, normal cost is already what most is for same speeds and paying extra for unlimited data, hehe

I pay for the unlimited. I also work from home and have 4 kids. Easily go over the TB cap each month and would rather not worry about it. So its an extra $50. Well worth it to me.

Funpimps just like always...Took them over a year to release (well not yet) a new update for the game and now they will probably delay it even more.Imagine when they will make plans on releasing the Final build of the game, no alpha, no beta but Final Release...I bet it will take more than 3 years LOL.

And no, im not being negative those are the facts

My 2 cents? In about 8 hours you'll be proven wrong....

Not only friends but their wives as well

while they want it to be as bug free as possible, just remember this is not a17, but a17 experimental. I've seen a lot of post that make me wonder if there are a lot of people here who do not understand the difference, and will be here complaining they released a bug filled update lol

Well, if you're right then we know you're (dev) faatal in disguise :laugh:

That could work lol

How will we know that it has dropped? The forums go down. Everytime a release happens the Forums go 404. And bless every one of you that posted about FOV. I love 7D2D and sometimes just push thru until I make myself sick. I can't change the distance to the monitor, I would have to be in the next door neighbor's house I think to compensate.
