What do you think [REDACTED] means? :D

So it's one of these:

• ladder
• asteroids
• unit cannon
• coffee and bacon
• t1 tank named "redacted"
• planetoid dating sim
• spaceships
• technicolored candy planets
• unicorn puking rainbows
• death stars / metal planet superweapons
• 40 player games
• multi-system matches
• sharks with frickin' lasers
• source code
• black holes
• Toy Rush super toys
• Brad's pectorals
• Space hamsters
• orbit changes
• improved orbital ui

narrowed it down a bit there!

Wheres the robot kittens?

And more realistically;

• ladder
• asteroid biome / asteroid belts
• unit cannon / drop pods
• death stars / metal planet superweapon
• 40 player games
• orbit changes
• improved orbital ui

I'm still hoping for death stars.

Drop pods, maybe? I recall someone from Uber talking about new ways to invade planets, and they were mentioned in this thread.

Oh yeah, I'll put that in with unit cannon. It's not the same thing but I think they have similar enough of a function that they can share a bullet.

i'll do you one better, too -- if our plan sticks, you guys will get to play with it / them before [REDACTED] is officially "out."

Dox rebalance?

Man, you know you want to tell us. This is just killing you, isn't it? We've always been so nice to you!

Implying that there will be another PTE build.... "soon"? Paging @garat !

We could pretty much drop those two, since it's apparently the art team that's working on this [REDACTED] feature.

I'm still thinking asteroids/death stars.

This is probably a dumb question, but when is 1.0 expected for release?

There was a PTE a while back where a "control structure" model was accidentally added to the game files and then removed. It looked like something that belonged on a metal planet.

DEATH STARS CONFIRMED.
Maybe.

Didn't Metabolical say it was "something that didn't work out" during a stream?

He's a very sneaky man!

I have made up my mind and no amount of evidence will ever change it! New feature is death stars, bigfoot, or the loch ness monster.

Did he?

I guess this is why the PTE is disabled ATM?

What is PTE?

The Public Test Environment. It's where test builds are uploaded before being pushed to stable.

I'm hedging asteroids. But it might be death stars.

I'm pumped. Bring it.
