sickboy Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 as far as timezone, it's central standard time, but even then, who knows what time it'll launch, all we know, is it's supposed to be inbetween now and 17h22 minutes from now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lajoswinkler Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I have a great idea. The next user who opens another thread wondering about the release time - ban. Also, contacting his ISP and finding where he or she lives and dunking him into tar and feathers would be awesome, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alaskafish Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Squad stated a few months back that they will never... ever.... give a release date. So they're lying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blinkin Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 (edited) From remembering times like the 0.14.x builds... when experimentals were still public... no definitely not. Keep it a surprise, I think it's a very bad idea to go back to the chaos that release dates caused.Go for quality not speed.Honestly I can't understand why anyone would vote no to this question. Very odd there are a few voting No. Deadlines are mostly a good thing for a professional company, and it's not horrible if it's delayed and the developer just says why it's delayed . That way I can plan days off to coincide .Deadlines are very good indeed, as long as they are kept internal. Schedules are made to be changed, the community reacted abnormal sometimes when they did change the public release date. In a extreme way that was not healthy for this community (which I really love btw). Edited October 16, 2013 by Blinkin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godot Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 It's nice to have this kind of announcement, though it'd also be nice to know what "16.10.2013" means to the Squad. I think they're somewhere in America, but what time zone is it exactly? ...IIRC they are based in Mexico ... which AFAIK has GMT -6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorCruz Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I was torn. On one hand, I like being informed and knowing whats going on. On the other hand, I do like surprises and I realize that Squad does their best with the updates and does only release them when they are ready, so I realize that I have to say No! I wouldn't want to know the release date of every update, but perhaps a big update would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadHunter67 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Think about how many useless and meaningless threads would have been avoided if they didn't announce a date. But because they did, we get inundated with "Y U NO OUT YET?" threads all over the place since yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Custard Donut (In Space) Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 For my own part i'd say no, i don't want to know, the waiting has been too much for me lately as the constant teasing of .22 has tired me out lol I think i'd prfer it to just appear, the wait is too nerve-wracking.

While the release date is nice to know, it has primarily served to fuel the impatience of the general populace. Settle down, people. You'll get it when you get it.

Forums were full of "WHEN U RELEASE?" threads since announcement of experimentals, with occasional speculation threads even before that. Lots of "Y I CAN NO UPDATE" threads after it went to youtubers and KSPTV. Today is the same as the last week, maybe two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today is the same as the last week, maybe two weeks.I agree ... and it is even worse on the Steam Forums where, there were lots of threads about "Why can I not update to 0.22" or "When will it be released" ecven before the announcement of the release date ... I think it basically startedwhen Squad announced that 0.22 had entered experimental stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
