    That armor... outfit... set thing looks so cooool. And the guitar. And those tents are neat. Everything's so cool, I can't wait anymoooore!
    ...Though I guess I'm gonna have to. Carry on, devs. I'm gonna go back to my cycle of checking the updates and then retreating into my cave of other things I should really be doing until beta.

    "ever get to see."

    What, are you terminally ill?

    And is it really the developers' fault that the expectations are being raised higher than the physical realm of reality allows?

    If I hadn't accounted for that, I would've been a lot harsher with that particular jab.

    Sad, they likely wont release beta or the full game until Multiplayer is finished, but I still enjoy the daily posts.

    I love the camo gear. Looks so awesome. Very fitting for a snowy biome too. :D

    I'm really surprised that nobody else has pointed out that the armor in that screenshot looks a lot like—

    <Rant>
    I know the talk of "Beta soon!" or "no signs of a near Beta" gets old hat, but I sort of realized yesterday when looking at this update that, Beta may be either 1) a ways off, or 2) feature incomplete. why? well think about what HASN'T been discussed/previewed on any streams or updates.

    -we have yet to see or hear a single peep about vehicles or how they work, boats, mechs, and mounts of some sort are all planned features but only a sprite or two have been released with no talk of if they are implemented/working etc..

    -no info has been released on NPCs and buying/selling, do NPC merchants still exist or has that been scrapped for 3D printer? are NPC quests still around? how will you get NPCs onto your 'home' planet? all in the dark still

    -We have yet to get a meet/Introducing the Hylotl poast, giving me the opinion that very much of the art and lore for them is incomplete or still un-decided

    -No discussion or updates have gone into depth or coverage of the pet/monster taming system lately either, giving me reason to speculate it is far from finished or playable

    Now I am not complaining or trying to say "give us an unfinished beta". I think Chucklefish have been working extremely hard and I applaud them for that and wish them the best of support, I'm just throwing out a reality check for those who after every *bleeping* daily update fill the forums up with useless "I smell Beta" posts
    that is all.

    You might want to highlight, as I have, the last part of that rant as the rest of the post can project an impression opposite to the one you're intending.

    I might be wrong about that, though.

    ooh, good Idea, I could see where the 1st half gives off an opposite impression, I'll go edit that :)

    That's true.. But if whoever goes through reading it without reading it in it's entirety of it is kind of missing the point anyway, no?

    EDIT:
    Also, I'm sorry, no I didn't...
    I'm.. not from the eighties. :wut:

    Actually, I have Wagner's, among other auto-immune deficiencies. Thank you for your sensitivity, smart-ass. And yes, it is their fault, because they constantly feed that hype with "CONTENT CONTENT CONTENT" and "FEATURES FEATURES FEATURES," with no playable game in sight.

    First of all, Titanium did make an insensitive comment. However, rationally speaking, how could've he known?
    Not saying what he said was right, but maybe you could address it in a slightly less abrasive manner?

    Secondly, the fact that they're still adding more and more content and features should tell you that it's not a finished product yet.
    It's either they keep us in the loop, or keep us in the dark.
    Personally, I prefer being in the loop. :catface2:
