[Official livestream] Fleet Carriers coming this year, on time, more news & details following the 24hr Charity livestream

[VR SenseiMatty]

In the interest of precision, it can only be truly said that FCs are coming 'Soon, Eventually, Probably'. Eventually this will be upgraded to 'Imminent, Probably', probably. What we are waiting for is 'Tomorrow, hopefully', with the usual caveats about acts of gods, and ultimately 'Later Today - if the servers don't collapse under the weight of expectation (probably)'.

Personally I'm sticking with 'When they get here'.

So when?

So when?

Some time after February.

Tl;dr.
Plus I don't understand British.

I really need to revise my general understanding of English

Did I miss an announcement? If we don't know the date they are coming, how will we know if they are on time?

Because Fleet Carriers are always on time, kind of like wizards.

To be fair though, with wizards being immortal and all that, time isn't really a concept they fully understand.

I now have this mental picture (video in fact) of Mr & Mrs Braben's front door being flatten on the occasion of their son's eleventh birthday, and a big hairy fellow saying 'You're a wizard, David!'.

I feel this explains a lot to us poor muggles*.

Could you please add to this list the british meaning for "re-prioritize"?

 

[Deareim]

on time or not, you should tune down your expectations....

"We've changed our minds"

By now that is no longer possible.

It doesn't exist - it is an Americanism...
British use "S" not "Z" and rarely spell phoenetically

 

[zimms]

Unsurprisingly today's stream won't be an exception and won't feature FC news.

"Join Stephen, as he reviews last week's news, ..."

I hope one hour will be enough to cover all of it.

 

[askavir]

The announcement has been re-prioritised.

FC besides, wasn’t there supposed to be a second round/patch of bugfixes between January and the release of FC? At least I remember some bugs being moved to a later stage in the patch notes.

Tricky. In my experience it goes this way.
'This needs to be re-prioritised' - - - 'We don't really want to do this anymore' - - - 'They're putting it first'

No. People assumed that because of the long time frame between January and June. But Frontier only ever mentioned that they are focusing on bug fixing and doing the Dec-beta Jan-update.

Hmm, maybe I didn't understand this correctly then.

Actually, when numbers are negative you need to increase the absolute value
