This all seems very positive. Getting hyped!!! But from the streaming schedule, I don't imagine we'll see beta until November and the patch wont drop until sometime in December. But hey, if it's good I can wait. I'd wager a guess that 90% of the dev time has been spent on the Q4 update ever since this was announced at frontier expo. I'm assuming that based on how much content alec and others said they saw, and the fact that the other updates quite small. They said from the beginning that most of there work is going into Q4, so hopefully this means they've kept they're shoulder to the wheel this whole time banking on this release. We shall see!

Yes November seems plausible since they said that everything will be shown in a few weeks.

October will pass quickly and we will be quickly in mid-November

December might be right, wouldn't be surprised if they wanna squeeze every last dev hour that they can. But of course that's assuming they'd find a need for it.

The month of December for the release of the final version also seems plausible.

Because this would come for Christmas and could boost new sales

Indeed it does seem to be the case... even if the specific message isn't being worded thus.

I think it is quite evident that one or three of the respondents here have their collective noses out of joint at not getting an invitation to this little shindig. Funny thing is that after their comments here there is no way in hell FD would every invite them to any future events.

Judging from Alec it is not really a compromise but something of olive branch. First, what's the point, people won't accept it anyway, second, I really doubt they can do it without breaking their concept a little.

FD sometimes need to stick with their guns.

Jeebus. For the first time in recorded history I find myself somewhat agreeing with Cmdr Eagleboy. These truly are the end times...

Worked out for whom exactly?

Goal was to invite people and show them stuff.

Rest of us we will see stuff in two weeks.

What exactly there has to work out?

Hype, having a bunch of players tell us "Dude, I wished you had come with me, we saw some amazing stuff, they've been super busy this year for this update." will obviously cause hype, more so if the invited people are under a NDA, you know, because hype doesn't work with without lack of knowledge/information.

Goddam I wrote it so that it said the oposite of what I intended.

No it really doesn't, because they did the very same thing last year, they took some youtube dudes into FD office to show secret stuff, said dudes came out saying "we can't say squat, but amazing stuff incoming" and then said stuff was released and it was actually... let's call it unamazing.

Fool me once... This time I'll wait to see for myself before being able to feel anything that might resemble any sort of hype.

Not saying the dudes are liars mind, it's only my threshold for believing that "undisclosed things are great because someone said so" has already been breached.
