so iv heard patch 2.5 is out for devnet5 or somthing!!!! (Now With Changelog!)

[JClosed]

And what about that's focus on those huge pancakes?

I rather have "Poffertjes" (Duch mini pancakes): http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poffertjes ... es_001.jpg

Almost the same, but (in my opinion) more tasty..

It's an conspiracy to push huge pancakes.. I tell you!!!

See? Much too big!!!!
An "Poffertje" is smaller than the palm of your hand (about max. 5 to 6 cm diameter).

Yep - it IS an conspiracy... Grmmble...

[Slashman]

also elite dangerous is full of nothing good luck with that and star citizen doesnt come out for another 2 years and its nothing like x rebirth, so come your jimmies down.

Ummm...how is Elite Dangerous full of nothing? What have the alpha/beta testers been testing? What have the let's play vids been showing?

It's not an empire building game, sure. Although Rebirth isn't all that big on that front either right now. Elite Dangerous is basically what Elite has always been. Space combat and trading. Except those guys actually have some concrete plans for post launch and want to make the base game work properly before adding things like walking on stations. Because we all know how well that turns out when you don't do it right.

What mohammadm is missing is the deliberate strategy from Frontier to fully test the core game mechanics in a modular way while slowly adding content. His 'I didn't read the manual' standard statement basically means 'I loaded a beta expecting a fully finished game and was suprised when it wasn't' despite multiple posts, a long in depth faq, weekly updates from the devs via email + forums and other resources all telling beta backers that there's a whole game still to be implemented on the stuff currently playable.

Drifting back on topic and sidestepping the dirty pancake plates, hopefully this is the direction ES are going with the longer than stated release windows. If only they could spend 5 mins a week communicating as well we'd be a much happier community. Sure, if you let out a teaser and someone gets the wrong idea they might post badly a few times. Not posting at all leaves us essentially talking to ourselves and even wilder rubbish gets made up on the way.

I've always said that was a shoddy excuse and I continue to stand by it.

The days of keeping your community in the dark are coming to an end. Most of the smart devs know that it is actually detrimental in the long run to keep taking crap shoots on what people want and how they like your ideas.

I still fail to see how removing a feature you talked about or changing course on a mechanic could cause a bigger backlash than releasing a game in a crappy state and taking close to a year to get it fixed. That horse has bolted the stables and is long gone.

I love Leaks....

Shame on you Nekrobob, that's Unitrader's dropbox for his modding work not a new patch.

400 billion star system of emptiness. at least rebirth does something right and it actually fills up the space your in. now the spaces filled doesn't mean anything at the moment and i personally hope from what blackrain has leaked, that we will have them given purpose.

the only thing im hoping for is when in 2 years star citizen hits, xrebirth would have

1. upgraded its dx from 9 to dx 11+
2. polished it up hard.
3. make there game look close to how cry engine 3 or unreal engine 4 looks like today.
4. added in most of the features we asked for if not all.

if in 2 years those things are not met i guarantee 90% of the player will leave for star citizen.

also im a huge fanboy of crytek engine and graphic realism. that why i support games that use it.

favorite fps of all time single player crysis 1 2 3.

IMO graphics and game play should go together hand to hand. i can not stand games with crappy graphics. example would be how i cant go back and play earlier x game after playing x rebirth and seeing its beautiful world.

Do you really expect that to happen? A brand new engineshine in 2 years, when the existing one took 7 years to make? Not being confrontational, but there's a bigger chance that a snowball with a tan would show up... in mid July than the scenario above happening.

[Cpt.Jericho]

Up to this point Chris Roberts has 50 millions bucks, a couple of great but linear games and a very bad movie in his favour. Star Citizen is at this point a combat demo, a few vids and lots of hot air.
Egosoft has a small team, limited budget and a reputation that they fix their buggy games and provide patches longer than most other developers do.

The hype about Star Citizen is nourished by the reputation of a single person (who hasn't been up to much in the last 20 years) and fancy PR.

I made some Awful X-Rebirth Pancakes™

They look awful, but taste good!
Opposite of rebirth.

[Miniding]

Please guys!! We should all thank Alan Phipps, a modo, that let us devage on pancakes and release date of the future patch...

Pancakes free for you Alan!!!

And if you have infos... don't hesitate to share!!

p.s: no offense.

[UniTrader]

as stated before the patch will be released as soon as its done, it wont be held back to be released at a later date just to make up some release date.

The Wait List For Green Bay Packers Season Tickets!!!
It takes a dedicated kind of football fan to brave the length of the Green Bay Packers' mile-long season tickets wait list. And by "dedicated" we mean "immortal and/or with regular access to a fountain of youth"; started in 1960, the Packers' wait list has long since passed 96,000 names, creating an average wait time of !!! 956!!! years. So hey, if the world is still around and not some Road Warrior-esque apocalyptic wasteland where football is played with the mutated limbs of our fallen enemies, then great, more power to your patience.

Wait time for x rebirth patches!!
Not as quite as long .......

WTFPL hmm let me see, what would that stand for.

[Santi]

This "soon™" is pretty rubbish, can we go back to Mizuras, Stazuras and Tazuras please?

Day 24:

Still no pancakes. After a while you forget about pancakes and start thinking about life. How it feels so unreal. Yesterday I saw a couple of rahanas class freighters passing through each other and stations they were trying to dock... something is wrong. Very wrong...

[linolafett]

actually you shouldnt see any rahanas flying trough stations anymore while docking. the only case this is currently happening, is when they are boosting from another zone into the target zone.
If you see it happening while docking, please consider donating pancakes to the captain.
