Still not sharing info about the streamer weekend. I hope it's not too different than we're used to. 

One thought I had, and I really hope they don't do this, is having it for Stable rather than Experimental due to 1.0. But I hope that's too silly an idea for them to do

The roadmap did say there'd be an Experimental before the first Stable. Hopefully that won't change - I doubt it will.

Roadhouse.

cool; so the New Challenge System will premier as a replacement for the often dreaded opening tutorial!  Sounds like it might be a little more interactive and better integrated into gameplay with incentives for accomplishing optional tasks.  With future potential for enhancement of later gameplay.

Where'd you find that info?

It was mentioned during the recent Neebs Gaming podcast where they had Rick and Lathan on for an hour or so. Laz linked it a few posts back.

No, what I mean is that maybe instead of having the Streamer Weekend on the Experiment release, they instead have it for the Stable 1.0 release.

I really hope they don't do that, but I thought the bit about it in the chat with Rick and Lathan was a bit odd

Would that not very much defeat the point of having a streamer weekend?

 
Doomofman said:
IMO absolutely. But this is TFP we're talking about. PR isn't exactly their specialty 😄

Every time they gave access to public experimental in the weekend for the streamers and then the first monday after, we all get access to it.

They never gave stable version to streamers, because they also accept feedback from them if anything unseen went through testing. So with one shot - two good things, a hype and if some critical bugs appear the devs have time for a fix.

There's never been a 1.0 before so things could be different. I'm just spit balling due to lack of clear information from TFP

They could end up treating Streamer Weekend/Experimental more as Closed Beta / Open Beta or something like that

Yes. 1.0. No longer early access. Not gold. Not done. Continued full development exactly as if we had called it A22 and started on A23, then A24...
Many games leave early access and the devs then continue to improve them. There is nothing weird about this.

That's not the point I was making. 

I'm trying to say that because it's a 1.0 release, that streamer weekend might not look like what we're used to. What Rick started saying before getting cut off by Lathan in that discussion backs that up.

So I was speculating that maybe they'd have a 'launch' weekend for Stable rather than a weekend for experimental

OR

another idea I put out was that they might call it a Closed Beta instead and when Experimental releases it would be an Open Beta 

I'm speculating because TFP haven't confirmed anything about a streamer weekend so far other than Rick saying "we'd also like to do a streamer weekend but it may be navigated through..." before Lathan stepped in

Personally I wouldn't put much weight into it. Of course they're gonna do a streamer weekend, who cares how they label it or what they do with it in occasion of 1.0.

Unless you mean something like a bachelor party for 7D2D...   :rockon:   :whoo: :juggle: :peace: :tea: :cheer2: :clap2: :drum:

Nah, that's a different movie.  Also, the sequel to "House" was called "House II: The Second Story".  I think they are categorized as Comedy/Horror.

I know lol, I was doing a bit.

Is it just me, or is Lathan often at these interviews in order to babysit Rick?
