Woo hoo another teaser to gnaw at me at night.

YES I'LL BE ABLE TO FART BUBBLES FOR PROPULSION

Good thing they are working on fixing all those bugs

[Yosher]

yeah seriously

they don't have to put in all these goofy features
they should just focus on fixing bugs so people can get the beta faster

also meanwhile at mariofan09's house

[tails]

Well there's 10 people working on it and I'm pretty sure it didn't take 10 people to make that.

this
they are probably fixing a lot of bugs and just a few people are adding "useless" stuff

or they only report on the "useless" stuff because they think it's more interesting than reporting bug fixes

[Skip]

You guys act like bug fixes always take the entire team to work on. :P
Bug fixes tend to be easy (there are exceptions) since the code is already made and someone who knows how it works just has to go through and figure out why the forget X is doing Z instead of Y or nothing at all.
In my little experience of seeing a small team of devs at work there's more often than not only one person working on a particular feature, bug, etc. and the most that another person will do is give input if asked.

Why is it useless?

I bet you wouldn't be complaining if you didn't have to wait for it. The extra features is what's gonna make the game worth it imo. I want all these features so I don't get bored of doing the same thing every playthrough.

[Neon]

At this point I'm seriously contemplating whether or not I'll participate in the beta, because if I've waited this long, why spoil the experience for myself?

Doesn't look like he's playing starbound. Looks like code Tweaking to me.

sorry but when the devs are like "yeah the game has a lot of problems that need to be worked out and what not" and then they add BUBBLES im kinda concerned

Alright, you guys only go out from the picture that was posted here while this was the full post on the starbound site:

Good evening!

I know I went a little quiet this week– we haven’t quit doing updates! I was just super busy and away from home. :P I’m gonna keep things pretty brief!

We’ve been configuring tech today, on top of the usual monster configurations and balance tweaks. We’ve got a bunch more NPC dialogue in, too! Merchants have different greetings depending on their race now, among other things.

Here’s a vague peak at a couple of techs (that are still subject to change, but I wanted to show ‘em off). :O

If you look closely:

Please people, the things that get posted here are mostly just the screenshots.
They inform us of the other stuff they do too, but in text format.
And basically, in every post they mention that they fix bugs or tweak content or something like that.

Why is everyone so damn negative about games and their developers here lately.
