What's the Delay?

Tries to sit patiently.

Is finding the task somewhat unbearable. Attempts to do something else.

Checks email. Finds nothing.

Tries to sit patiently.

Repeat.

It's still Friday night (1:45am). About an hour ago, we got everything fully working. I just posted the big Kickstarter Update with all the details for backers on how to get the new release.

P.S. The bars are still open, so nobody can claim we didn't get this thing out on Friday night, as promised! :)

Who needs bars... I got a couple of good beers right in front of me hehe :)
 
Congrats on your release! I woke up this morning and there it was.

I look forward to a lot of typing, wait, why would I look forward to that...?

For those of you seeking more details about when V1.0 will be officially coming out, I'm too exhausted to do that right now. However, I promise to provide an update here on the forums with our basic gameplan and our best guess regarding release timing. I'll do that this weekend.

First off - Congratulations!!! :)

Second - Can't Wait!!!

Not official answer (you'll clearly see that I am a spy... umm... that made more sense in my head), but at the current rate of progress, the answer is going to be "a few weeks". Can't really nail it down any more than that, but it goes a little something like this:

Week 1: New Beta Release to Beta Testers. Fix ze BUGZ!
Week 2: Roll Update out to Early Access users. FIX MOAR BUGZ! Frantically write more code.
Week 3: Roll Bugfix out to Beta and EA users. Cross fingers that there's no more showstopping bugs. Wait for bug reports. ROLL OUT VERSION 1.0!

Any showstoppers would slow that down. That's really a best-case scenario (and LWD can stun me with beating it any time they like...).

Everyone is aware that people want this software, and want it NOW. Unlike many software development houses, LWD don't want to release a product and immediately have to issue a bug-fixing v1.0a. They want 1.0 to be stable, usable, and awesome, and one where any updates they release are upGRADES. Massively lofty goal on their part, and I fully predict that there's going to be a bug-fix shortly after launch, but I'm also pretty confident (from personal experience with this software so far as an EA user) that it will do what it says on the tin.
 
Hmmmm... by my calculations (based on the conjecture above) that puts 1.0 out around Thanksgiving! Definitely something to be thankful for!

I know what I'm getting ME for Christmas!!!!
 
I'm 99% sure that Thanksgiving is overly optimistic, since that's less than 2 weeks away. I'll put together a post this weekend that details what's left between now and the official V1.0 release. So stay tuned...

True. I thought it was a bit silly when apply released iOS7, then released an update in less than 10 days.

Although the fall release thing really depends on where you are. On the US calender, the seasons start on the solstices and equinoctes, but outside the US, those are usually the middle of the season. Winter started a week ago in Europe. Just a minor technical nitpick.

In the country of Europe, all calendars are alike? ;)

Edit: This post was missing something...I think that something was a winky face.

Are all the calendars in the former European colonies the same? :D :rolleyes: (Yes, meant to be humour!)

Almost, link to info.

Thanks bodrin! Now I know the difference between meteorological winter (Dec, Jan and Feb) and astronomical winter (Winter solstice to vernal equinox.) :) (I was wondering why some people were thinking winter started at the beginning of December. )
 
Quick note: My computer began having lots of problems (read: repeatedly crashing) last night. So I'm now way behind on getting the promised status update out. I will strive to get that out tonight, provided there are no major issues that derail me further (such as further system crashes).

<fingers crossed>
