The possibilities for grapple tech will be interesting to see

[flint adder]

Me waiting for the patty cake mod

[crisp quail]

lol paddle please

[dense ermine]

Where is Thursdoid?

[inland mica]

congratulations! You get B42 unstable earlier (11:58 AM) whereas the rest of us will have to wait to play later (after midday)

||just in case someone gets triggered: this is a joke, y’all||

[flint adder]

I'm gonna put this accomplishment on my tombstone

[toxic dragon]

I have to wait until Friday before Thursdoid comes out. (I am currently on vacation, residing west of the International Date Line.)

[dense ermine]

[crisp quail]

in pz lol

wait i wanna make tombstones in pz!!!

[tight magnet]

atleast you get to wednesday before us

[inland mica]

“this is how Soul Filcher filched your soul”

[toxic dragon]

True....

[tight magnet]

i wonder if b42 is just gonna be a random @ in pz chat again spamming the link💀

when unstable is out

[toxic dragon]

That is pretty much the only way

I see nothing else.

[crisp quail]

uhh *soul snacker

[tight magnet]

it’s just funny cuz no prior notice

[remote ivy]

Can you feel it guys, B42 Halloween release…

[crisp quail]

nooo im not reaedy!!

[remote ivy]

Lord nasko will bless our ravaged bodies

[toxic dragon]

And then the first 3 users would say, "Fake", @ mods, or something else.

[crisp quail]

[tight magnet]

then that one person hyperventilating

[crisp quail]

LOL "quit trolling"

[tight magnet]

i wonder how steam and reddit will react if it releases before 2025😂

they’re the biggest haters

[inland mica]

that one new player who bought the game during the Steam Sale: “what’s a B42?”

[tight magnet]

“new pistol update?”

[gloomy fjord]

Would Project Zomboid be fun on Ps5

[tight magnet]

sure

[toxic dragon]

Ah, I felt that.

[flint adder]

Zomboid controller scheme works surprisingly well

[crisp quail]

i cant wait for it to come out so those people , THOSE PEOPLE, that i roll my eyes at every blog update ... lol can be like hey its out

[flint adder]

It's great on Steam Deck

[gloomy fjord]

Modding would be probably not in it tho

unless they really committed to it

[tight magnet]

and they act like nothing happened lol just “yay it’s out thanks”

[flint adder]

A few games take mods and publish official versions of them to console

[crisp quail]

EVERYTIME LOL

[dense ermine]

[crisp quail]

just like you aint going to apologize for them nasty remarks are you lol... them:saunters off

[gloomy fjord]

Would they use a system like Bethesda with mods

[flint adder]

Well hopefully not Bethesda lmao

[gloomy fjord]

fallout 4 has a fair amount of good console mods

But nothing special I think

[flint adder]

I know Teardown does something like that

[inland mica]

TIGS should make sprinters the default zombie speed with no way to change it out of spite as an unintended bug

[flint adder]

But I don't have a console so I dunno

[gloomy fjord]

I do, mods are heavily underrepresented

[flint adder]

Poor Teardown, it has so so so much potential

[gloomy fjord]

partially due to weird laws, commitments and just weird legal stuff

[crisp quail]

lol people would put them on a spitroast lol

and then the ywould hear about this 50 years into the future

[crude blade]

they probably are able to do that now because of the rendering and performance improvements thankfully lol

[austere pond]

That's kinda bad news for me. I'm too used to the low quality corpse. It's what actually confirms me that zombies are actually dead

[crude blade]

i like it

[nocturne arrow]

I like it aswell

[crude blade]

zombies coming alive looks super janky right now

[nocturne arrow]

you might be able to toggle it though

[crude blade]

especially when players reanimate

im assuming if there are a lot of bodies in an area some of them will turn 2d like how excess zombies turn into silhouettes if there are too many onscreen

[crisp quail]

i wish we could make a screensaver , cause sometimes when im pissed off after dying, i just sit there for 10 mins staring at my dumb little corpse brooding in my chair

"was it worth it"you little shit

[inland mica]

[vast nexus]

I’m glad there will be changes to guns

Like having moodles affecting your aiming and accuracy

[inland mica]

traits, lighting, and the weather will also influence aiming and accuracy. Critical chance too iirc

[vast nexus]

Makes sense to have poor aiming inside a bunker unless there is lights tuned on or a flash light

[crisp quail]

i have never seen this, does it jingle?

[native wagon]

no function yet but it could be a could idea to have a trap that makes noises if triggered

[crisp quail]

yah make it so when i hit zombie with it it dings

[vast wind]

[vast nexus]

I’m going to be the one to say it, clearly foreshadowing for b42 unstable release

[native wagon]

until thurday arrives and this thread is closed down.

[maiden tiger]

we need a !b42when like the old !mpwhen tag

command, whatever

[inland mica]

that was a thing? lol

[tight magnet]

yeah i guess if it’s a late thursdoid there’s more time

[crisp quail]

NO theyll spam it lol

bros gatekeeping the command

[inland mica]

I could absolutely see this being spammed lol

[crisp quail]

yah ask nasko to put it back lol also im literally dumb.. i was like how does he have a pumpkin from back in 2021 lol

[tight magnet]

it’s not really “old” !mpwhen anymore

were gonna need it again lol

[maiden tiger]

that's fair

[native wagon]

I remember the get real command used to be a thing until it was removed

[crisp quail]

remember when you couldnt crouch lol

[inland mica]

lol was it !getreal?

[tight magnet]

i think b43 will definitely turn off multiplayer too unless they find a way to turn off npcs to be able to play mp as an option

tho i think ppl would prefer no npcs anyways in servers

[native wagon]

single player is usually better for development compared to multiplayer

[crisp quail]

people will probably just minecraft murder them lol

[inland mica]

perhaps for larger servers. Imagine the lag

[crisp quail]

yah i was thinking that would it it be like minecraft and people making 5000 animal lag farms lol

[inland mica]

^someone gonna hoard all the chickens and NPCs in a basement

[crisp quail]

i played on a mc server that was big and it was a constant problem , they always had to cull their animals rofl

you dont need THAT MANY ANIMALS lol

[tight magnet]

animals are gonna be very interesting in mp

someone will definitely find a way to do an end rod sheep machine…

[crisp quail]

lol

ugh lol

[tight magnet]

that looks like a pair of testies

[crisp quail]

nuh uh this does hang on lol

[visual haven]

[crisp quail]

hehe balls

[inland mica]

wot in tarnation?

[tight magnet]

nah, we in ballnation

200 messages we should be fine

we’re on track soldiers

[crisp quail]

wait can we pretend were the grim reaper?

also just noticed this lol

[tight magnet]

what that

oh crafting

[crisp quail]

yar

[tight magnet]

which post

[crisp quail]

tidy up time

[tight magnet]

banned

that’s not the discussion post

[crisp quail]

lol

i wanted to see if they emit light

[vast nexus]

I really like the look of that new crafting ui

[tight magnet]

so excited for workshops to actually be a thing now

like building a workshop

[vast nexus]

Same, requiring the tables to craft is really nice

[crisp quail]

yah that will be fun to have a designated little area , another thing to setup n stuff

[tight magnet]

maybe the bandsaw can make planks quickly now

so far all we’ve seen are tools being crafted with machines

furniture gonna stay the same? where u just craft from the air

[vast nexus]

They are making a new build ui

[tight magnet]

i’m talking about how you craft it

[vast nexus]

So if there is any furniture building it’ll be done in that.

[tight magnet]

it’d be cool if we make frames like the walls

[crisp quail]

theres that light switch thing is that just for debug?

[tight magnet]

but i can see it becoming space engineers (no one likes survival crafting)

[tight magnet]

no bc it’s impossible to see in the dark

it’s being added on all switches

[crisp quail]

cant wait to get bit from a zomber hiding in a damn basement

[tight magnet]

actually pz is a better game for that since it’s so slow paced

nothing better than finally finishing your project

so o don’t mind making furniture frames first

if cotton is in the game maybe that’s how we get cushions after building frame😅

or ac we can use the sheep

[vast nexus]

There is a tanning rack and cotton spin well but I can’t remember if they will be in the initial unstable build or not.

[tight magnet]

tanning rack is right there actually lol

pic pup sent

[vast nexus]

Yeah but they said some crafting stuff won’t be released initially

[tight magnet]

okay so

everything they have shown us already

not like a maybe but actually shown us

is coming

[vast nexus]

I’m pretty sure the tanning racks won’t be in the initial release build but sometime after. Like bows will be later too

[tight magnet]

they’re coming

what makes u say otherwise?

[vast nexus]

Because they said not everything we have seen will be in the initial release build.

There are some things they are holding back.

[crisp quail]

i would think tanning would be in there since its pretty dependant on other things or whatevers

like thart

at least something from there i would think / hopes

[tight magnet]

if tanning is considered under butchery then it would be quoted directly but if not then it’s still implied to stay

sadly even devs don’t know what would or wouldn’t stay so we don’t have a direct list

[tight magnet]

next thursdoid hopefully. at this point i rather news than reassess

[crisp quail]

i didnt know we were getting water snacks!

[vast nexus]

I think by now the devs know what’s coming and what isn’t.

[tight magnet]

it’s been vague throughout

[viscid dirge]

thread and twine is right there

so tanning racks I believe will make it in

[red knot]

ive never seen this car, also no car mods activated

[tight magnet]

they said specifically though that what we’ve been shown is coming

[viscid dirge]

that is the list that they have for the crafting that's comming in to unstable

[tight magnet]

yes but it’s not exclusive

[viscid dirge]

exclusive to who?

[tight magnet]

b42

[viscid dirge]

facepalm

[tight magnet]

meaning it’s not the only thing coming, it’s what IS coming i can’t explain it

there are sooocmanu changes in b42

[crisp quail]

think that is this

[viscid dirge]

it's what will make it in the first unstable version

[tight magnet]

these are the crafting examples

[viscid dirge]

that's what they give us for a first try

more with patches and updates

[tight magnet]

we are limiting the number of new craft disciplines that will be initially available

that’s the quote

the update is more than just crafting

[vast nexus]

I think most of us know that by now

[tight magnet]

yeah that’s why i said it’s not exclusive that’s all

[viscid dirge]

yes I don't understand your issue

[vast nexus]

The main point was not every single crafting tree is making it to the initial build.

[grizzled goblet]

if B42 unstable comes out in December, that months thursdoid is gonna end up in guinness world record post-count wise

[vast nexus]

Things will be added over time

[tight magnet]

yes ik

[viscid dirge]

I responded tot this

[tight magnet]

i was trying to say that we don’t know what ISNT coming

[tight magnet]

well yeah but look

one sec

[viscid dirge]

I can tell you

bowery

[vast nexus]

Maybe on Thursday we might get a more clear list of what crafting stuff is coming

[viscid dirge]

and probably masonry

[tight magnet]

is that a probably i see

[viscid dirge]

bowery is a sure thing

[crisp quail]

are those denim and leather strips piles?

[vast nexus]

Could be, but they kinda look like ores

[viscid dirge]

seriously, I joke, but looks like two piles of shit from different people

[grizzled goblet]

theres no ores in b42

at least in the base map

[tight magnet]

there are for
wilderness

[vast nexus]

I know I just said they look like some

[viscid dirge]

at least the brown one

[strange steppe]

I remember they show a mineral deposit saying it will be a compromise for the first interation

[vast nexus]

It probably is leather strip piles tbh

[crisp quail]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqav1gKkzp4 it was in this so could be the forest map?

[viscid dirge]

Iron ore is not rulled out on the base map in the long term

[crisp quail]

cause theres these pile too

[grizzled goblet]

last time I talked about ores I got told to pretend railroad tracks are ore deposits xD

[tight magnet]

and anvils!

[viscid dirge]

yeah there was a confusion

[vast nexus]

Yeah those look like rag piles

[viscid dirge]

people believed that the only source for metal will be the iron ore

and they stated that for the wilderness map it will be the only source while on the vanilla map the first and logical source will remaing the world itself

[tight magnet]

i hope you can turn it off

[grizzled goblet]

I said it back then, I'll say it again: I don't want MMO ore deposits, but some minor metallic chunks in foraging loot table is all I wanted for some immersion for suffering

[viscid dirge]

but it's not rulled out in the long term

[tight magnet]

i want stick and stone wilderness sometimes

[tight magnet]

ig it’s the leasttttt you could do

[strange steppe]

I think there will be ore deposit instead... But will be a temporary solution...

[grizzled goblet]

not everything needs to be turbo optimized and efficient

[viscid dirge]

temporary solution to what?

[strange steppe]

The idea of ore on foraging is interesting instead

[grizzled goblet]

as horribly inefficient source, that is

base map has plenty of metal to repurpose but some people really love their primitive zug zug playstyle

[strange steppe]

I remember they showed ore deposit as ore source saying that that wasn't a "perfect" solution but that initially could work... Or something like that

[tight magnet]

the thing is, in games usually diamonds and stuff are the rare and strong stuff, but realistically, iron is the game changing ore, so i agree with it being very rare since having it is almost like having diamonds in an rpg

[viscid dirge]

that was refferenced for the tiles

[strange steppe]

Ah

[viscid dirge]

tiles of ore are available for modders and to serve them in wilderness runs

[crisp quail]

thats for the wildness map right?

[tight magnet]

i’m sure it’ll be very easy to just mod in ore scraps for foraging

[viscid dirge]

also tires of ore will be mainly used in the wilderness maps

[crisp quail]

that will be fun to try and play

[grizzled goblet]

there's videos of guys hauling random chunks of earth from the bottom of a lake and separating metal out of it and making a goddamn knife with the stuff, its very primitive but it is realistic

[viscid dirge]

because of game-y-ish reasons

it's mostly debatable is the ore will spawn on the vanilla map

[tight magnet]

yeah maybe instead of finding iron chunks you sift through dirt that you dig up

[flint adder]

I mean there's already a ton of metal on the map I'd we're able to scrap and smelt stuff

[tight magnet]

no its 100% not

[grizzled goblet]

there is plenty of housing too but some people prefer to live in the woods, same principle for those who wanna suffer

[flint adder]

No need for ore on the vanilla map

If they want that they should play on the wilderness map that would have iron ore

[crisp quail]

thats pretty cool because i am a city living person in pz and have no interest in living in the forest but that forest map sounds like something new to try

[viscid dirge]

that's mostly what everyone said and they cleared this out by telling everyone that the logical source of metal will remain the map itself

[grizzled goblet]

except once again, no one wants gigacolossal chunks of ore, but tiny remains as extra foraging loot to have smallest of scraps to "do it in a pinch"

[viscid dirge]

but ores are not rulled out entirely on the vanilla map

[inland mica]

pure wilderness maps will have ore patches iirc

[vast nexus]

Yeah because the vanilla map you can still dismantle cars and bathroom tiles for metal.

Once bows arrive wilderness maps will be great.

[final hazel]

I can't imagine that developed urban areas would have large iron nodes just lying around

[crisp quail]

lol

[viscid dirge]

https://projectzomboid.com/blog/news/2023/12/zleigh-ride/

[crisp quail]

maybe on roadways some scraps but like really tiny

[strange steppe]

I think scrappy renewable solution is necessary for persistent server on MP..

That could be the reasons of ore deposit.

Otherwise when the mayor amount of metal source on vanilla map is gone where do players find iron for crafting?

[grizzled goblet]

every time I bring up tiny scrap inefficient sources of metallic chunks, people start assuming it means giant nodes with pure industrial grade stuff to make legendary katanas

[crisp quail]

nah lol i watched a youtube vid of some dude that collected a bunch of like dust from busy highway and he didnt get a lot but it was cool to see , i had no idea

[flint adder]

Not sure, bur ur would be wild if a server was able to use all the metal in the game map lol

[final hazel]

I can imagine metal chunks as foraging loot, terrafirmacraft style

[strange steppe]

This ☝️

[tight magnet]

the way i want pz wilderness to be is like green hell. there are a couple caves but a VERY limited amount of iron that could make you at most a couple of tools and if they break then sucks for you because there isn’t much iron

I don’t want pz wilderness to be from nothing to a regular map i still want iron to be rare like green hell

[grizzled goblet]

that sounds like some horribly extreme fringe case, but hilarious

[crisp quail]

lol , some server challenge , wonder how long it woudl take

[flint adder]

Depends on the amount of ppl but would take ages

[strange steppe]

Well they are planning persistent server that run for months...

It could happen if the server is populated I think

[final hazel]

at best, you'd quickly drain all the obvious scavenging spots, and leave a ton of undiscovered metal elsewhere on the map

[flint adder]

I see what you mean

[viscid dirge]

if it a 32+ server, this can happen quite fast

[strange steppe]

Remember they are coding this build with that purpose in mind

[flint adder]

But remember the outside of the map will have infinite generation with ore outcrops I would guess

[viscid dirge]

this is an interesting subject

if the random generated wilderness will feature them

[crisp quail]

https://tenor.com/view/batman-thinking-thinking-about-you-think-thinking-of-you-gif-20503421

[viscid dirge]

outside of map borders

[final hazel]

so now you'll have "prospecters" as a valid server role

[viscid dirge]

Foremans

[final hazel]

someone who can run out into the woods and collect iron

[vast nexus]

I wonder if servers can set a limit of the random generation or set boundaries

[crisp quail]

1. It will allow for the current borders of the premade map to cease to have a black impassible border, and will instead allow players to be able to explore outside the confines of the map a very, very large (though probably not infinite) distance.

[strange steppe]

Could be interesting if number of source at same time are limited....

On that case players should fight to maintain their source..

[crisp quail]

lol time to get lost

[crude blade]

walking dead prison ankle biter

[strange steppe]

Or "day of the dead"

[inner idol]

I hope TIS are delaying next thursdoid because it's going to be a release 😁

[viscid dirge]

?

[crude blade]

im hoping after grapple tech we get more zombie death animations so fake dead zombies could have more variety like being slumped against walls and stuff

[crisp quail]

and we hope to have some functionality to extend roads from the existing map border into this generated terrain. - does that mean we will be able to make roads or them to add roads manually

[viscid dirge]

why should they delay?

[flint adder]

Ragdolls, hopefully

[strange steppe]

Because as pat said they are greedy😂

[crisp quail]

theyre making a joke about delaying thursdoid and releasing 42 instead i think lol

[crude blade]

i feel like ragdolls would be really janky for pz tbh

[flint adder]

I don't think so

[viscid dirge]

ah

[vast nexus]

Id rather see more death animations and more attacking animations than rag dolls

[final hazel]

I'll bet that players will eventually be able to make their own roads, but the game will still generate highways so it looks like the rest of the US is surrounding kentucky

player-made roads might be more "ye olde castle" tho

[crude blade]

the only benefit i can really think of for adding ragdoll physics would be that they dont need to make tons of death animations for new animals

but for regular zombies i prefer animations

[crisp quail]

would be nice lol i remember trying to make a road from that labratory or whatever it is by rosewood ... ugh it took so long and made no progress lol

[tight magnet]

we made it past 6333 messages!

only 325 more messagesnow

[strange steppe]

If they implement ragdoll someone must use AnimZed to make the "tank" from L4d, I pretend it!😁

[visual haven]

I want to see the new mapping tools

hoping we gain access to them in the unstable release

[proud osprey]

Imagine a ragdoll of a zombie under a car tire

Thuptthuptthupt

[crisp quail]

ragdoll for the dang football and basketsball

[proud osprey]

We can kinda play board games with mods in B41 I can't wait until we get a zomboid football league going (getting bitten is, in fact, a foul)

[crisp quail]

lmao zomber leagues

[proud osprey]

I saw that, Pat 👀

[visual haven]

[quick patrol]

It's my ligma acting up

[native wagon]

chubby zombies would be nice and evading them would be quite easy.

[proud osprey]

Who is Steve Jobs??

[crisp quail]

i was like , watch him say ligma or something lol

[tight magnet]

damn

[crisp quail]

[proud osprey]

[sand compass]

Halloweiner is coming

[native wagon]

Zedoween

Zombween

[digital saffron]

man I went thru so many stages of waiting i went from excited to caring to not caring to now excited again i am so ready for this update i could wait another year like this

6363 GET btw

nice

[tight magnet]

speak for yourself

imagine another year of this

[native wagon]

it would be disapointing if we dont get build 42 unstable this year.

[proud osprey]

Well we're prolly gonna get more of this even after unstable goes up because then the wait for MP begins

[tight magnet]

yeah i’m worried about the haters they’d riotttttt

[mystic dagger]

you bet

[viscid dirge]

I could not honestly

after all the hype

[digital saffron]

ive gotten used to waiting you just gotta be patient and try to not care bro

[tight magnet]

yeah i was waiting to play coop w someone now i can’t 😢

[native wagon]

I am concerned GTA 6 will release before we get build 42

[proud osprey]

we've waited this long~ ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tropic spade]

No thursoid this month?

[tight magnet]

definitely

[mystic dagger]

coming thursday

[ember bone]

its almost thursday baby

[tight magnet]

GTA late 2025

[tropic spade]

Makes sense

[native wagon]

Halloween themed thursdoid

[tight magnet]

b42 easily 2026

[viscid dirge]

with the hope of a release

[digital saffron]

its cancelled

[proud osprey]

And it's still comin'

[viscid dirge]

consoles

[mystic dagger]

another thursdoid with screenshots of new key chains and how well the polishing has been

[viscid dirge]

PC maybe 2026, maybe...

[ember bone]

b42 release date announcement after i die

[native wagon]

if the thursdoid was cancelled this month there would of been a tweet from indiestone

[tight magnet]

3 things i look forward to are thursdoid, space engineers newsletter, and kenshi updates lol

and phasmophobia actually

[digital saffron]

assuming b42 will come out before that

[native wagon]

I am predicting crafting , animals and some extras in this thursdoid

[viscid dirge]

I know, that's what kept me going

[native wagon]

Maybe some new clothes or guns

[digital saffron]

shit ignore my message i read your comment wrong sorry

[tight magnet]

for sure build menu i’m guessing but id guess they’d show new trait balances and professions

[mystic dagger]

they are just polishing, nothing new in the works.

[digital saffron]

https://tenor.com/view/hugo-dance-daitroksgiphy-tiktok-dance-dance-meme-hugo-gif-4889342664313836961

[crisp quail]

were getting it lol

[proud osprey]

I think the most exciting thing I'm looking forward to with this Thursdoid is just word from the devs. It's like your Mum coming in and reminding you that dinner is still cooking so you know you're not going to starve

[tight magnet]

duh but we were never shown new build menu cuz it was late feature or the balancing they did

[viscid dirge]

I'm confident the unstable will release this year

[crisp quail]

it will probably take me 2 months to ge tthis dang spiffo from terraria to drop

[strange steppe]

Or for ligmadoid when they announce it's delayed😂

I'm joking

[viscid dirge]

mostly it's bug fixing and adding maybe last improvements

[tight magnet]

it’s always “it is until it’s not” so i never rly take their release dates seriously

[crisp quail]

yar

[viscid dirge]

and if we see the Build UI teased

[proud osprey]

Yeah unstable SP being out after December 2024 would be genuinely shocking

[native wagon]

Build 42 before GTA 6 trailer 2

[viscid dirge]

then we know it's close

[mystic dagger]

well, we'll see. hope they dont dissapoint with this one.
Just give us some information on the progress.

[proud osprey]

Especially knowing what we do about where it's at

[digital saffron]

you all can comfort yourself with the thought that just 2 months of waiting are left and we have already endured waiting for much longer than that, and if it doesnt come out within those 2 months it wont even matter anymore kek

[tight magnet]

at this rate we might hit 7k messages lol

[viscid dirge]

it's seriously after announcing it on all channels

[proud osprey]

I hope we stop at 6.9k 🥺

[native wagon]

early 2025 for build 42 could be possible at this point lol

[viscid dirge]

it's kinda serious

[vast nexus]

They said 2024 for unstable build several times and there hasn’t been any change to it yet.

[mystic dagger]

itll be out this year 100%.

[digital saffron]

if it doesnt come out in november im betting on february or march

[mystic dagger]

no worries people

[viscid dirge]

why?

[tight magnet]

that’s just to add a really big range lol

[viscid dirge]

missed my point again

[proud osprey]

For the final release? Yeah kinda duh but unstable was all that was promised

[vast nexus]

There is still November a bit of December until holidays

[viscid dirge]

i'm not talking about the range

[native wagon]

such a long content drought for PZ

[proud osprey]

Early 2025 is a bit ambitious tho

[digital saffron]

i feel like theyre stretching out the avalaible time as much as possible to get as much things done as possible before public release

[viscid dirge]

"this year" range

[mystic dagger]

yes.

[tight magnet]

ur saying if posted on all channels that they’re confident

[proud osprey]

There are many other games to play, tbf

[viscid dirge]

yes

[native wagon]

build 42 should start with smaller features before expanding over time

[crisp quail]

yah , lots of cool indie games came out this year , some even suggested from the pz community i would have never known about

[viscid dirge]

when making such a huge announcement you must have something backing it up

[tight magnet]

you do understand that a delay did happen? not by time but by features

that’s what i mean by it is until it’s not

[mystic dagger]

fine with that.

[tight magnet]

they could be confident, until they aren’t

[proud osprey]

That and an outstanding modding community have done wonders to fill the gap

[native wagon]

glad I have been playing some american truck simulator to tide me over for build 42

[mystic dagger]

just give us like a billion things thats in it anyway

[vast nexus]

Unstable will very likely be this year, 2024 has been the date given multiple times.
If it was going to be delayed they probably would’ve said by now. But from the previous dev blog they are in wider closed testing so unless something major is broken it’s very likely not going to be delayed.

[digital saffron]

just give mea a billion dollars

now

[viscid dirge]

I don't believe Lemmy's posts on reddit where official announcements

[proud osprey]

You heard that joke about the QA tester in a bar?

[crisp quail]

spiffo?!

[tight magnet]

also notice how they were apparently rly confident in january talking about a year ahead, but can’t give an estimate only a month ahead? it’s because from the start it was a vague estimate where “no way it would take over a year”

[tight magnet]

? i’m talking official. we’re not getting everything planned for unstable

[native wagon]

getting more closer to 6666 posts

[viscid dirge]

yes

[sand compass]

Time will tell

[crisp quail]

lol

[vast nexus]

Idk why people think it’s gonna be delayed past 2024, they haven’t said that yet. 2024 has been then only date we’ve ever been given.

[digital saffron]

that very likely is doing a lot of heavy lifting here I feel like december is the most optimistic possible prediction rn

[crisp quail]

were you here for build 41?

[proud osprey]

A QA tester walks into a bar. He orders a cat, slaps the bartender, hides in a corner, screams in Spanish, ties a knot with his own hair, and leaves.

A user orders a beer and the bar explodes

[sage stump]

I think they should give a daily estimate that varies so frequently and wildly that no one but the most foolish fans pay it any mind

[crisp quail]

LOL

[tight magnet]

do people really think the mark was not missed?😂 delaying over 20% of plans is the exact same as delaying the time by 20% to add them

[mystic dagger]

because people feel like they cant trust their words. thats why.

[tight magnet]

we’re just playing an even earlier version that they hoped for so that it could be before 2024

[viscid dirge]

what mark man?

[sage stump]

Erm actually those are not the exact same thing by virtue of them being different things

[tight magnet]

2024

[viscid dirge]

it still is 2024

[vast nexus]

Again 2024 has been the only dates we’ve been given. I trust it’ll be 2024

[digital saffron]

the first half of 2024 prediction sounds so funny now

[tight magnet]

if we had everything from the start, it would roll into 2025, you agree or no?

meaning no features delayed and we would get everything

[crisp quail]

nobody remembers 41?! lol

guys please

[viscid dirge]

not, that's silly to asume

[native wagon]

Build 41 is over 5 years old

[digital saffron]

i dont im a newfriend

[sage stump]

We don't know because that is not the current reality

Who knows how they would handle it. Personally I don't care

[viscid dirge]

beta b41

[mystic dagger]

They will release the beta this year. i think so too. plus they would get a hell of a time if they delayed it.

[proud osprey]

Feels like every few hours this chat loops about how long the wait has been for 42 and the same arguments are hauled out and beaten like the dead equines they are :/

[digital saffron]

not many other topics to talk about here

[sage stump]

Such is the nature of the news discussion chat

[tight magnet]

if b42 releases december 31 2024, you still think if nothing was delayed it would be 2024 still?

[crisp quail]

lol , hey its just like steam forums but not as toxic

[native wagon]

I cant wait to hunt deer in PZ

[crisp quail]

at least people here are nicer

[sage stump]

As long as people aren't being horribly rude I don't mind engaging with the doomer vibe messages

[proud osprey]

There was a rather interesting conversation about modding possibilities in the current engine I thought was fun

[viscid dirge]

that is an unrealistic situation

[proud osprey]

It's just exhausting, like the negative energy, yk?

[viscid dirge]

and exceptional to say the least

[native wagon]

it would be nice to have some cute dogs as pets for PZ

[tight magnet]

possible no?

[native wagon]

making dog food more useful.

[sage stump]

It can continue; plenty of chats here happen while others are ongoing

[strange steppe]

-97

[viscid dirge]

no

[tight magnet]

if it’s not possible they would tell us…

[mystic dagger]

if they release it late decemeber im still dissapointed. yeah lets say we release it in 2024 and btw USE ALL of 2024.

[sage stump]

That's fair, but I'd prefer it be contained to one place at least and these channels serve that purpose

[native wagon]

6666 posts is almost here we are in the 6500 now.

[vast nexus]

Honestly until we read the next dev blog to get a better idea of where they are at, the date that still stands right now is 2024.

[tight magnet]

they would say “guys b42 is for sure for november” if a december release is unrealistic, because they said themselves they want it out just as much as us so they would definitely say that

[crisp quail]

aweh i was trying to find the post and i found this

[proud osprey]

I guess, I follow the threads when they're posted because they're always so optimistic initially but maybe I should just stick to General :/

[tight magnet]

but that won’t happen because they donttt know

which is fine

[mystic dagger]

it will stay 2024.

[digital saffron]

still no desert boss tho

[strange steppe]

What if Dev archive this discussion in 6665?

[native wagon]

if build 42 released in December it would be early parts of that month.

[proud osprey]

I will explode

[vast nexus]

That would be hilarious tbh

[mystic dagger]

better be.

[tight magnet]

and i by no means care about what’s delayed as long as i play, it’s just funny that people think TIGS were on track 100% the whole time lol it’s obvious if they didn’t delay features they would delay release 2025

[digital saffron]

btw ppl complain about how mid the doids have been recently well they shouldve seen how horrible the terraria devlogs have been for the past few months its literally no new info and just merch shilling

[tight magnet]

again is that’s a for sure case, they would tell us, no?

[vast nexus]

Having it release sometime in November would be kinda good, get the community to provide any bug reports before the December holidays hit.

[tight magnet]

but it’s still possible to get delayed because anything can happen

[mystic dagger]

obviously, but its a public beta. no need to release it with ALL the features. just give us a ton of shit you already got. its long over due

[native wagon]

PZ blog post are more better than waiting for rockstar games to post anything for GTA 6

[tight magnet]

trust me i know whatever is going on. i’m just trying to point out that the “2024” post was made with every feature planned to be there in unstable. We can see now that a lot was delayed to get it out earlier. meaning IF it was still planned to release with everything, it would release in 2025. Does no one see this?? it’s literally not unrealistic and is the case lol

they didn’t wanna delay time further and just opted to delay features it’s literally word by word what happened lol

[mystic dagger]

yes and i see your point and agree

[native wagon]

maybe it could be false advertisement

[tight magnet]

so a 2025 release will never happen because they can take out whatever they want to make it earlier if anything happens

and that’s what i’m trying to have you guys see

[mystic dagger]

what

[tight magnet]

so yes, it’s a “planned until it’s not”

[digital saffron]

im not sure if its that easy to just take out a part of code on a whim

not a coder so idk

[tight magnet]

it’s a lot easier to disable a feature than to keep working on it

if it’s gonna take over 2025

[vast nexus]

They said they delayed certain aspects of what they planned to include for the initial build. Like Bowery

To get the build out quicker.

[mystic dagger]

yes

[crisp quail]

yah i think whatever they would just push out whatevery they have for 2024 regardless

[mystic dagger]

yes

[crisp quail]

so im not worried and ill take that over nothing to be frank and weenies

[vast nexus]

They are in wider closed testing and the last big thing they have is the new build ui which wasn’t ready last month but this month it’s possible we will see it

[tight magnet]

and just so people know, b42 as we speak is by all means a playable state lol they just want it rly good on release so it doesn’t fumble

[mystic dagger]

money standpoint very important

[tight magnet]

so yes it’ll for sure come 2024, the twitter post however has missed the mark with wha they planned

[native wagon]

I just hope build 42 wont be a buggy mess

[mystic dagger]

so i see that

[vast nexus]

People will hate on it regardless because either they haven’t read the dev blogs or they just want to hate

[mystic dagger]

i think people wont hate tbh, people are finally happy they get content.

[digital saffron]

them talking about private alpha testing is the only thing that gives me hope

[mystic dagger]

shit, its been 2 years

longer?

[sand compass]

Honestly I do hope for some new on a release

Id rather them be upfront and rip the bandaid

[native wagon]

almost 2 years since the last build 41 patch.

[vast nexus]

Of course we the passionate players will give them praise but there will be people that haven’t read the blogs will be like “where is xyz feature, this update broke my game” yada yada.

I trust they will deliver a very well beta build.

[mystic dagger]

yeah, so over 2 years since we got any good content added.

[native wagon]

December 12 , 2022 was the last time indiestone updated the game.

[tight magnet]

depends when you started waiting lol

[vast nexus]

I mean this update is probably one of the biggest updates for the game

[mystic dagger]

the exact second b41 came out 😅

[tight magnet]

this update is bigger but easier than b41

i assume

[mystic dagger]

they did great with what has been shown but

why no new car 3d models?

not just a new paint job but actual new models

[vast nexus]

They added new vehicles, I don’t think they need new models

[native wagon]

cant wait to find a new police car livery

[tight magnet]

yeah fs ;(

[crisp quail]

because in the 90s there wasnt very many different ones lol

[tight magnet]

it’s just variants

like vans

[mystic dagger]

well cmon look at what we have now

sure there werent but thats not a good argument

[native wagon]

I remember when PZ introduced vehicles to the game and it was mostly late 70s and early 80s models

[tight magnet]

it ain’t ancient history

[native wagon]

it would be nice to have in game consoles to play.

[crisp quail]

i dunno i lived in the 90s and youd onlly really see certain cars really lol

its not like we had the internet where we could trade different types , we only had sales places

[native wagon]

parody of Sega Genesis , NES and others

the 90s and 80s had very nice cars

1970s muscle cars are the goat

[tight magnet]

if it’s that specific that they looks at exactly what car people had then it would still be more than what we have rn

[crisp quail]

broncos were super popular back then lol i dunno why

[mystic dagger]

wouldnt have hurt to add some :)

[crisp quail]

like an izuzu trooper

or a whats that car geo tracker!!!

[strange steppe]

-2

[mystic dagger]

interesting stuff, we'll see what they bring coming thursday.

[tight magnet]

6600 messages

[mystic dagger]

i hope no dissapointments.

[crisp quail]

LOL

[strange steppe]

Stop at 6666?

[tight magnet]

i don’t think it would work

it has to change to 6969

[vast nexus]

I have a feeling we will get the beta build in November

[tight magnet]

but we can try 6666 till someone ruins it lol

[crisp quail]

theres no way were going to stop lol , someones gonna get hyper about the blog

[tight magnet]

“guys b42 tomorrow trust”

[strange steppe]

Yeah I agree

[crisp quail]

lol who was the preson that always did the roadmap

[sand compass]

I hope we get some more vehicles with high horse power

I found a work van that had like 400 something, then switched to a van with 250

And I missed that power

[crisp quail]

does horse power even do anything?

i never notice lol

[toxic dragon]

Pat Bren drew the template I think.

[native wagon]

🎵 Every day its a getting closer going faster than roller coaster🎵

[crisp quail]

noo remember someone would always come in the discussion and type roadmap lol

or was it a few people that did it

[tight magnet]

everyone did

[sand compass]

It does actually, it affects your acceleration. When you have to drive with trailer, more power gives you more speed

[vast nexus]

Its moved 1 pixel

[sand compass]

That has become super important to me since I'm moving bases

[toxic dragon]

https://tenor.com/view/jim-carrey-salute-gif-27701630

Good luck

[vast nexus]

B48 when?

[native wagon]

[toxic dragon]

Me when still no Japanese shittake mushrooms.

[crisp quail]

NO lol they were the reason why it got removed

whers the king oyster mushroom

[tight magnet]

[sand compass]

Nasko the russian spy.

[sand compass]

But real talk when is gta 42 coming out

[gaunt cloak]

Only downside I see to adding these is that it's always obvious which ones are poisonous and which ones are not if you google it

[vast nexus]

Nakso is here to lock the forum on 6665

[crisp quail]

LOl i was like did we get 6666 yet lol

How long can one hold their breath for

Gonna unlock it when I have to gasp for air, someone stop the time

[crisp quail]

[granite karma]

Hahah

[tight magnet]
