LOL people on the forums are banned for asking about updates - and now y'all want more monies?
You guys are bad at making money on the Internet. You deliver a product - then get paid. Not ask for money for 3-4 years, ban everyone who pays you, and then ask for more money, with a still incomplete product.
It's a part of the game. It's not a huge huge part. A huge huge part would be NPCs. In terms of coding - NPCs > different colored lights. Stop pulling statistics out of your ***.
I acept blinky/naskoo answers fully because they work on the game and their explanations make sense. I understand now that they pretty lights was just a random test - not a feature they're showing off (since we all agree setting different color light values is super tough, but its not)
If you're seriously placing different colored lights above full functioning NPCs - you're just another idiot white knighting the game. An idiot who can't see all points of view.
^ you're justifying a pretty lights update that has nothing to do with the framework or optimization of anything. Plus - they shouldn't be teasing about NPCs if they're not going to release them in an appropriate time slot after. I know plenty about selling crap online - and you don't show a youtube video of being able to snuff out NPCs with a pillow + talk about "NPC Updates coming soon" in later posts for months and not do anything. That's just stupid. No matter how you try to justify changes of colors of lighting as "the need to fix the framework".
And Louis - I can only speak for friends who have showed me the game and friends who I've shown the game. Everyone says after you do some building and farming - there's not much else to do. Enter NPCs.
I understand you fellas want to white knight. But noone is saying the game is bad. Everyone is saying it's boring after you spend a while on it because no NPCs. Your white knighting is obsolete because everyone would be happier w NPCs.
Good thing GTA 5 saved the... how ever many months Indiestone wish to take with NPCs.

YEAH FORGET LIGHTING - DO NOT CARE ABOUT LIGHTING. WAITING TO PLAY GAME AGAIN W NPCS.
I hate those people that use caps for everything - but it gets read. Seriously guys, noone cares about your lighting. Or rather - the 80/20 rule applies here - 80% of the people are waiting for npcs, 20% already play and might be happy that there's now different colored lights.
In the end, we still all only want NPCs. That is all.
I don't know - their whole timeline seems funky.
They talk about build 11 having NPCs and sheetropes.
In the forum - they have:
2.9.9.13 released already as an unstable forum beta - and noone talks about any NPCs at all. Some sheetrope talk - no NPCs.
So... what is build 11? What is 2.9.9.13? It's better to give an ETA of 6 months on the NPCs and get them done in 3 months than all this confusing ********.
