Any new progress reports?


Recommended Posts

There hasn't been a progress report for about a good year now. Is anything being done?

It's intresting that you use your first post to talk a load of cr*p.

I have only been here a few days and I have seen progress updates.

Perhaps post with your main??

Well, thank you for the warm welcome, Mace. I hope you welcome every new forum member with such charm and wit.

I didn't realize, however, that I was talking cr*p (how do you pronounce that word anyway, with the asterisk there? Crasteriskip?). I based my question on the "Forum: Xenonauts News & Announcements" section of the forum, the very first forum section after the heading of "Xenonauts". (This part of the answer to our friend Mace also applies to the other person who replied to me- I do appreciate the nice part of the reply with the forum replies that were not listed in the "Forum: Xenonauts News & Announcements" section of the forum).

If you take a gander at the 8 threads in that forum, you will notice that the latest thread labeled "Progress Report" is dated 2-Feb-2012. Now, while I realize myself that 5 months is less than a year, I did try to hedge my statement with the modifiers of "about" and "good", both of which imply plus or minus months on either side of the actual correct number of months in a year. Still though, 5 months is a long time with no progress report.

Text, sadly, leaves out all the tone and body language that is included in language. When I typed my statement, I meant no antagonism at all, I was merely curious about the length of time since the last progress report. I have paid for the game, after all. I thought I was due at least a progress report. So I asked if anything was being done. I apologize, Mace, for my words. I never meant to p*ss (pasteriskiss?) you off with my question, nor do I think I was "talk(ing) a load of cr*p" with my question.

What, exactly, does "Perhaps post with your main or STFU??" exactly mean? I understand the "or STFU??" part, but what does "Perhaps post with your main" mean? Sounds a little nonsensical. Did you leave out words in your anger at me?

I thank everyone for the warm welcome to these forums. Hopefully you great all new members with such enthusiasm. Makes a persons heart warm to see how nice the forum members are. Thank you.

It is confusing that the Xenonauts updates are in the Goldhawk part of the forum, it is easy to miss them if you link straight in to the Xenonauts section.

Rest assured there are plenty of features being worked on and added all the time, check out the "Three builds to beta" post linked above to see just what is being worked on at the moment.

If you haven't already then there is also the demo that was put together for the kickstarter campaign for you to try.

That is no longer the current build (fewer features) but will give you an idea of where the game is going.

Personally I am looking forward to the flamethrower most, no real reason *cackle*.

Now that I know where to look, and was linked to a few of them, I can keep myself updated as well. Thank you very much for showing me where to look! That is very confusing where they put the updates, but ours is not to reason why... :) And I have paid for the game (just didn't buy the premium level- I'm poor) so I have the latest alpha build (12.11 I think?) so I already know the game is awesome :) It is because I am so excited about the game that I was accidentally riling up Mace with my question at first.

Thank you very much for the info, I appreciate it. And Thotkins, thanks for the toys! I tip my mug of ale to you, then belt out the lyrics to old 80's songs on the karaoke machine :)

Holy batman fudgesticks. What on earth provoked you enough to post that???? Did someone just run over your cat or something?:confused:

Please try to keep a bit more civil tone <3

Welcome to the forum Absinthetic :)

I have to concede him that it's a bit confusing where the updates are placed. It took a while to figure it out myself.

I strongly suggest at least a sticky to redirect people to the right place (or post them in the xenonauts forums where they should belong)

I have to laugh! Check the bottom of his post, you'll see it says "Last edited by mace6442; Today at 08:17. " The edit took off part of his original quote to me, to make it look like he wasn't being so nasty :) His ACTUAL quote to me was "Perhaps post with your main or STFU??" A little less polite than what he edited his post to be now :)

I appreciate the concern, Mace, that you wanted your post to not be as nasty as it was but maybe another post saying something would have been nicer :) It's okay tho Mace, I forgive you. I even forgave you in my first post.

Thank you, everyone, for the welcome to the forum and I mean that sincerely. It actually is a nice place to visit and I hope to be around for a long time.

Cheers!
