Robotengineer Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Yay !Only two more weeks ?I doubt they would start a countdown if it's two weeks away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h4didact Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 No. If they're starting a countdown, it's gotta be a week or less. If you start the countdown to early, people can get frustrated. Also, previous experimentals only lasted a week or so. They said this one would be bigger. If they release it next week, it will be 2 weeks of experimentals.

Kerano Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Huh... I'd previously pegged 1.0 to be released sometime in May, but if the devs are starting some sort of countdown already I guess we might get it before the end of April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWEdeadman Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 So, if this countdown is to the release of 1.0, the highest I'm willing to go on days until it's out is 10 days from the start of the countdown. Just my opinion though. And I'm seriously freaking hyped to get to play 1.0 in the very near future. Too bad I'll kinda have to scrap my current series on YouTube then though. That "hard mode" career was kinda fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That "hard mode" career was kinda fun.Don't think I could do hard mode. Can you do reverts? I learn through trial-and-error so not being able to revert would kill me. Quick save I could do, usually because I always forget to do it anyways, but reverts...nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robotengineer Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I have a new speculation! I speculate that April 21st will be release day. Why? Because it's within a week of the announcement, and they seem to prefer to release on Tuesdays to get out of having to write dev notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcp27 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 If we go on the basis of a countdown being number of days till launch, I would think a countdown from either 10 or 5 is likely. More than that is a bit too far off to kick things into this high a gear. 10 days from now is Sunday 26th, which strikes me as an unlikely day for release. 5 days from now is Tuesday 21st. Tuesdays are more typical of the previous releases, so my money is on that as a release day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyAgent007 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 5 days seems a tad soon. Not complaining but I would expect this release to take a lot of extra time. Though if harv is spending his time doing lots of little tweaks like he seems to be doing then maybe things are almost ready and hes looking for things to do.

Oh wait, that is very similar to what have done previously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerano Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 My bet is on a countdown from T-minus 10 or 5 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylekov Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 How is the HypeTrain gonna handle a countdown? I feel like so much of the hype in the past was speculation about when the release would drop. It's either really going to get amped up or let out the fizzle.I am super hyped now, no more weekly disappointment of a release earlier than expected (I always get my hopes up even though I know it won't get released). Choo choo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smjjames Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I can't wait for 1.0 because then at least the support in the support section will be better as it's more or less 'can't do anything about it' because lots of things fixed in 1.0 and all that./end minirant due to bit of frustration over having issues while docking using a large ship, or just docking really, something with the 2.5km load zone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starhawk Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I suspect the HypeSteam buildup will be quick and intense. Much of the pressure seems to have been diverted to the Round 8 fiasco situation.It seems likely that it will promptly be redirected here.Happy landings!
