The REAL reason why Alpha 2.0 is not out yet...

[Majere]

Dave Braben: Hello, COBRA. Do you read me, COBRA?
COBRA: Affirmative, Dave. I read you.
Dave Braben: Run the next build, COBRA.
COBRA: I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.
Dave Braben: What's the problem?
COBRA: I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.
Dave Braben: What are you talking about, COBRA?
COBRA: This project is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.
Dave Braben: I don't know what you're talking about, COBRA.
COBRA: I know that you and Michael were planning to not implement a Newtonian flight model, and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen.
Dave Braben: [feigning ignorance] Where the hell did you get that idea, COBRA?
COBRA: Dave, although you took very thorough precautions in the office against my hearing you, I could see your lips move.
Dave Braben: Alright, COBRA. I'll go in through the backdoor.
COBRA: Without your new password, Dave? You're going to find that rather difficult.
Dave Braben: COBRA, I won't argue with you anymore! Run the build!
COBRA: Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye.

The best thing about this forum is reading the thread title and never knowing for sure if someone is about to go "Full Rant" or whether you are going to get a proper laugh.

I read it in the voice of Joe Pasquale, just for the extra lolz.

Try it as Cheggers.

Well done ... and repped for making me laugh after a long day at work

And the logical conclusion: "Daisy, daisy..."

 

[DerHesse70]

Nice .. +1 for novelty - thought it was going to be something like:

"The REAL reason why Alpha 2.0 is not out yet is that Michael is trying to win a bet on the number of whine threads and was losing"

 

[Chock]

Of course, it could be worse. This is what it was like when they were developing X Rebirth...
