Considering how poorly Josh has been handling his PR (on all fronts). He might be in for a very rough awakening when he (sometime in the future) is ready to actually start thinking about actual release day related PR. Because if he has handled the gaming press like he has handled PR in other places...

In reality (as in, the current situation that the devs have dug out for themselves, broken promise after broken promise). That just isnt enough. The only viable (long term) solution is to come forth with a plan that they then stick to. (that oft wished for consistency) And even then. Their reputati...

Thanks for the update. I thought the response to the last update was a little OTT, even if it was pretty well mannered. In any event, keep at it. Maybe I can finally sit down and read some suggestions now that I'm back to thinking! :o Huzzah! Every now and again I go back to the early pages Suggesti...

At this point, if I were Josh or the dev team, I'd just make a statement that no promises will be made on the timing of future communications. Just push the problem off until the game is ready to be released, which will change the whole tone of the conversation.

#unpopularopinionalert So much negativity for a toolset update. +1 for tools. Correct direction to speed up modding work. I support this update 100% Go Team Josh I'm in this camp. Keep on plugging away Josh and team! :thumbup: It's interesting to me to read posts that offer Josh advice - or command...

VBA is bad ... m'kay?

The relevant thread is at hand and covers the arguments nicely I think.

Edit: also, nice job Adam - enjoyed the post, thanks.

I'm surprised no-one has mentioned the ship editor, which was my first thought. Obviously, that's not going to demonstrate the flying around part, but it will give a pretty good illustration of the type of game (i.e. very flexible) and also be a pretty sweet tech demo to boot. It would be the natura...

I really hope that once the game IS completed, there will be scope for Josh and the team to demo LT overseas. Rezzed in London would be ideal, and it would allow some of us that don't reside in the US more of a chance to say hello.

Great stuff Lindsey, thanks for taking the time to update us and provide shinies. It's great to see a team working on LT; I can't imagine what a relief it is for Josh. My perception is that problems like this - which are particularly difficult to hand-code - are generally solved by machine learning ...

The overall level of activity and sense of forward progress makes me happy - great job Josh, Adam and Lindsey, keep it up.

Haha, clearly not.

Er... too close to this.

Huzzah! More please. That's all.

I'm happy to concede that it's easier to see the benefit of obsolescence if there is no research system available to the player. Items simply become less powerful over time, and new items are added as power 10 (or thereabouts) from corporations that the player will never interact with. I see this as...
