As the title says, I am wondering if the trello is being actively updated. I do realize that we just had some major holidays and all, but there has been no updates there for a while. The newest things done there were on the first, and that was just Garry moving some cards around. Has anything new update-wise been worked on and the trello hasn't been updated, or is something else going on? I was just wonding since I have been following the development rather closely and haven't seen anything new...

They're doing things. Some things. There was a bit of down-time during the holidays but they seem to be doing a bit of work now.

I'm not impatient, you dipshit, read the fucking original post. I was just wondering, since there was nothing new since the 23rd, and on the first some cards were moved. I acknowledged that it was the holidays and I understand that, but yesterday was not a holiday and neither is today, I was wondering if they are just not updating, or if nothing has been done since then.

I guess I missed that one, I did notice a ton of cards for moving cards all around by garry, but I did not see that one, thanks!
ouch.

Hey, I'm not gonna be nice to someone who didn't bother to read the original post! :v:
I think since the trello needs to be updated manually, things aren't going to get updated there everyday. I suspect they are updated on a need to basis, and well, work can take more than a day to complete.
Also, they just came back from some well deserved holidays, and it takes a few days to get everything flowing properly around the workplace I recon.
At least to me it seems pretty up to date.
This game lacks content updates.
Takes weeks to fix certain bugs/exploits (which in my eyes could be easily fixed within hours)
Let's take 7 days to die for an example.
In a few weeks, they went from Alpha V1 to Alpha V5.
In the meantime people have been developing mods for Rust which adds the features some players have been waiting for for months.
Just saying.

You really can't compare development like that - different companies have different ethics for their development cycle, and also versions. For example, if I had a game, I could easily make one minor update and up the version just from that single update. Revisions mean nothing when comparing development stages - it's all at the discretion of the developers as to what the version is. I could have a game at V102.5 and not have as much content or bug fixes as a game in V1.5.
And like Unemphatic said - 7D2D may have more developers. There are very few people developing Rust - keep in mind it's an indy game. Not too sure about 7D2D (not familiar with it, I've never played it or looked into it)

Wouldn't be much more.
As you can see on Trello even the simplest things aren't getting done..
The 'DDoS' attack is no excuse to have things delayed, as only MuchDifferent invested time to fix the exploits.

Known Issues
When you light a pipebomb and don’t throw it, it will explode but the pipebomb is not “deleted”/removed from your inventory. If you die, all of them are dropped, including the one that exploded.
Players can sometimes get stuck in small vertical spaces less than 2 blocks high like on top of a cinder block or trash pile
Mac builds need to quit game via the task manager
Fixed: Runaway console and browser join issues
Fixed: Input string was not in correct format console hijacking bug.
Fixed: Password popup screen to hold proper game information to connect to upon entering password.

Fixed bug that would cause the menu to not show for 5-10 minutes at startup while authorizing with steam; also fixes bug that would say a player doesn’t own a copy of the game and locks them out, when they do own it.
Fixed bug where players would get a blank screen when clicking start after manually typing in an IP/Port.
Fixed memory management on dedicated servers: now if players disconnect their memory is freed and not cached any more.

Is what they do in a few weeks.[/QUOTE]
Actually played early alpha of SDTD on a friends house a couple of times. It didn't have much content at all, but some cool mechanics.
I'm genuinely impressed that they actually added this in a few weeks. Like, VERY impressed.
[QUOTE=Crissiejjj;43404630]Wouldn't be much more.
As you can see on Trello even the simplest things aren't getting done..
The 'DDoS' attack is no excuse to have things delayed, as only MuchDifferent invested time to fix the exploits.
They don't do 'minor' updates.
When they release a update it usually contains a shitload of changes/updates/fixes.

Is what they do in a few weeks.[/QUOTE]
I didn't say that 7D2D push out minor updates, I was making a generalization. Keep in mind that Rust isn't Facepunches' only active project. I'm pretty sure that 7D2D is their only focus.

As you can see on Trello even the simplest things aren't getting done..
The 'DDoS' attack is no excuse to have things delayed, as only MuchDifferent invested time to fix the exploits.

[QUOTE=Crissiejjj;43404337]This game lacks content updates.
Takes weeks to fix certain bugs/exploits (which in my eyes could be easily fixed within hours)
Let's take 7 days to die for an example.
In a few weeks, they went from Alpha V1 to Alpha V5.
In the meantime people have been developing mods for Rust which adds the features some players have been waiting for for months.
Just saying.[/QUOTE]
What is your frame of reference for how long things take during a development cycle other than being a player of another game? Are you a programmer? What makes you qualified to determine that anything can "be easily fixed within hours"?
As a programmer, let me tell you a bit on how things work. It is NOT easy to fix every bug.
The first thing you need to do is reproduce the issue. If the issue is being reported as intermittent, things get really hairy. You need to find out EXACTLY what is happening. Once you have that, you then need to isolate the faulty code. Then evaluate the issue. This step can take a while. The first thing you need to figure out is "what does this effect"? The changes will take several attempts. Each attempt means loading the game and then testing the issue. This can take several hours if the issue only occurs under special circumstances.
Each bug is different.

Oh yes, I remember this game. It was a bit borring when I played it, looks pretty cool now.
[QUOTE=utilitron;43413305]What is your frame of reference for how long things take during a development cycle other than being a player of another game? Are you a programmer? What makes you qualified to determine that anything can "be easily fixed within hours"?
As a programmer, let me tell you a bit on how things work. It is NOT easy to fix every bug.
The first thing you need to do is reproduce the issue. If the issue is being reported as intermittent, things get really hairy. You need to find out EXACTLY what is happening. Once you have that, you then need to isolate the faulty code. Then evaluate the issue. This step can take a while. The first thing you need to figure out is "what does this effect"? The changes will take several attempts. Each attempt means loading the game and then testing the issue. This can take several hours if the issue only occurs under special circumstances.
Each bug is different.
The guys at the fun pimps are only working on 7D2D. In fact, they are so busy working on 7D2D, they haven't had the time to finish their website... [URL="http://thefunpimps.com/"]http://thefunpimps.com/[/URL]
Face punch has 3 projects 9at least). [URL="https://trello.com/facepunchstudios"]https://trello.com/facepunchstudios[/URL]
You also have to look at the experience behind each game.

I am not sure Facepunch could make the same claim. But that is part of being an indie developer.

I know bugs *can* be hard to fix.
However, adding simple checks to the lootboxes and the looting through the walls can be prevented (not that I care if it'll get fixed).
I'm talking about content beeing added. Unity is a simple engine. New content/features can easily be added.
People have to make mods so we can add our own stuff in, just because the developers aren't releasing any content.
Not sure if you guys knew but we have been on our Christmas break and will be back on the job by the 6th.

Hey, they are that long here! At least for me :v:

That is assuming the issue is boxes are being looted [B]through[/B] the walls. From what I have read that is just the assumption, not actually confirmed. All we know is boxes are being looted and doors still exist.
Now this could be a hack, not a bug. This could be a no clipping bug that is allowing players through walls, this could be related to this: [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1341879"]http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1341879[/URL]
None of these things are an "easy" fix, and figuring out which one will be a big deal. And until more people come forward with how to reproduce issues, it will be difficult.

Again, where is your frame of reference? I haven't used the unity engine, so I don't know how much work it is to add content. But I can assure you it is not "easy". You have to code the desired behavior, test and retest. Then an artist has to make the graphix and meshes and they have to be put in the game and tested and retested. This process can take a while. You have to design things outside of the game before putting them in, and development of new features is no walk in the park.

Did you forget that their Christmas break was slightly interrupted by that whole DDoS thing?

The 'DDoS' attack is no excuse to have things delayed, as only MuchDifferent invested time to fix the exploits.
