Yes, and biscuits please.
Lead position...? As far as I know Ben's just a member of the rendering team, has he indicated before that he's a team lead or similar? Apologies if I've missed that...
But, as we've established (over several pages by now), he's probably not allowed to do that for contractual reasons - at least, it would probably not be a wise idea for him to do so. I completely agree that the silence from CIG proper is a bit deafening - if SM is in the avocado release I'd expect them to have crowed about it by now, for sure.
At times, the feeling is distinctly mutual.
Earl Grey. Hot.

OK, looks like Goons have figured out the "source" of the GIF video being bandied around as "proof" that SM is enabled in the 2.6 Evocati build of 48hrs ago.
Original GIF video posted by Hi-Ban, claiming it was from the 2.6 Evocati build, and not the hacked single-player (as per the Parias video)
ATV video stream where it was captured/exported from:
NOTE: Someone said that the Black bar at the top (in the GIF) is the ATV logo; though it may be the client score/count or something.
The End.
UPDATE: A Goon has pointed out that the GIF is not from ATV
But appears to be from the previously leaked (via file hacking of the Evocati build) single-player SM build

Could be true. It wouldn't be the most ludicrous thing about CIG.
Busted! hehehe - time index is 10:08 btw
So the gif has the same unfinished HUD (no red background for the name of other team) as single player SM map, but shows multiple contacts on the radar. Either it's from multiplayer SM available to avocados or the gif originates from CIG's internal build.
This is stupid. Can't CIG just say yes it's in or no its not. It's making them look even more of a blunder than they already are.
That'll be why I cannot find an exact matching sequence in the ATV video.
The blockout top right on the gif must be where the game would be given away - literally

Or someone took the single player giff and added some radar contacts. (not saying that's what happened, just saying it's one of the possibilities).
Would the disquieting implication there, be that someone at CiG leaked that to try and discredit Voldsmart?...
Curiouser and curiouser said Alice!
Its not stupid. If they manage to get SM in 2.6 they will claim it as proof of competence, it will be a victory. We need to keep doubting them so they can get it right once. If we just say "You guys have dropped the ball so often, I'll see it when I see it" it would remove the 'we told the doubters!' vibe the whales desperately crave.
CIG can fail as often as they want, as long as they occassionally do something which is doubted as well.Yes it is. Completely.
NOTE: They are aware of this, due to all the Reddit and RSI forum chatter. Still, not a single peep from them. Because, you know, that's not odd at all.
I wonder if Genuine Roberts is annoyed by people asking about Star Marine yet
Well, now that you've been banned (I only found out on /r/ds), it doesn't matter. You posted a GIF video that has now proven to be false claims of SM being enabled in the 2.6 Evocati build pushed about 48hrs ago. You didn't provide proof of authenticity, even though the onus is on you. Instead, you keep asking people to prove a negative.
I just don't get why Star Marine is so important anymore. IIRC, the point of modules like Arena Commander was to progress major deliverables before a combined play area could support them. CR himself has said that the functionality of SM that is requisite for FPS play in the PU is already in the PU. Why would FPS be iterated in this separate module when it could just be iterated in the PU?
SM was relevant BEFORE FPS was playable "seamlessly" with flying ships. Now that they smash together in the PU what about SM is supposed to inform or excite me?
