The update was supposed to bring around a dozen or so new pistols and a new boss after the citadel encounter and the hype was there but then it just vanished...anyone care to fill me in to what happened?

Well, Nick left, the head hancho of spiral knight is gone and now OOO is like a headless fly, not sure where to go and the update has been delayed numerous time. And if you are wondering why no one is answering this thread other than me, it is because, well, this is probably the 26579th time someone posted a thread like this and they got sick and tired of responding to this.

The reason why these questions about the gunner update are constantly being brought up is because they were never answered, at least not entirely.

they never say anything about it, they never release it, much like Half-life 3, keep on waiting, some day it'll arrive.... yep, some day.

I haven't seen a more impatient community. Other games sometimes take longer to come out with "a desired patch".

Well now, if we're going to start dropping biased statements...

If you haven't seen a more impatient community, then why is "Half Life 3 confirmed" a meme and "Gunner update" not?

I was not aware Half life was a thing (I spend little time on the internet) so I don't know what a "meme" is (other than the character in soul eater NOT)

algorithms are the solutions to any problem.

you sir, need to spen more time in the internet before saying such things. especially if you don't know the term "meme" yet, it's chock full of those in there. well, I guess it's here too...

also, I'm pretty sure the sonic community has had less to say and said a lot more than this one. thank god I'm not following that.

I forgot that "BE PATIENT YOU 11 YEAR OLD" video link, and I was going to link it to you, but, you get the idea.

Meanwhile, I'm waiting patiently for Majora's Mask 3D. Probably going to pre-order it some time in between Christmas and New Year's.

You are trying to corrupt his mind with that 4chan madness and the stupidity of the internet? STOP RIGHT THERE criminal scum!!

Sadchan you'd do your best not to know about those things, they only fill your brain with nonsense, save yourself now that you still can, unlike me, I am far beyond the point of salvation... if you follow my path you'll be using m8 all the time, you'll see illuminati triangles everywhere, 666; 420; 69; 1337; but then it gets worse.... you'll start linking memes and videos into dumb comments that are everything but original or smart for the "lolz" and start playing a FPS game under a weird long name containing lots of numbers and leetspeak like xXXx_MLG420_EPICDoRiTo_L3giT_N0obS1Ayer69_xXXx. The final stage is when you start talking like a full derpnub liek wiv wrang spellin n bad grammerz dat nobody ever undrstand wah you evn sayn n-ymor and then ya die.

Those that can answer you likely won't here becase of the "Spoilers" ruling.

Officially, we had hints at the boss last summer. It likely has to do with Herex, the round grated object found in Almirian castles near the throne, the artifact, and the swarm. You can speculate what you will with this about an update.

The flip side of this is that we haven't seen any notion that the developers are working on a major update in a timely fashion at all. They don't answer questions, talk to us, release patch notes, or hint at a gunner/Herex update at all. The only communication that occurs is when they're selling us things- these factors combined have lead to at least my own negative speculation on the intentions of the development team. The team lost Nick, but that was almost a year ago now and it's been a bit longer since we were promised guns within a month. The key thing about this claim is that they aren't "OOO", they're "Three Rings of SEGA". I would like to think, that when losing a lead developer SEGA would step in and assist them in making a speedy recovery, so that they aren't set back three years in development. Because of this, having a small team isn't as much of an excuse either. It could be argued that Spiral Knights doesn't bring in enough money to warrant more developers, but it could also be argued that having more developers would allow Spiral Knights to make more money in the first place.

My personal solution to all of this would be a "what's in development" post and small release containing a new level, balance tweaks, a new weapon, something permanet and moderately meaningful every month, month and a half, or two months. This would add a developer presence to the game, and lead away from the idea that SEGA is just using Spiral Knights as a scapegoat to milk the playerbase for all it's worth, and would in turn quite likely lead to a more loyal playerbase that at least returns once a month for a few days to check out the new content, possibly purchasing things.

I'm vohtarak, call me by that name

not really an explanation but more of an observation
look at the entire model of the artifact
look in the middle of the round things (elevators probably) at some boss rooms
it fits the thing, its probably a key

Gunner Update got released-ish. Gunner Update might involve shooting the new boss to death.

I don't know.

At least it didn't fade away unlike Half Life 2 EP3/Half Life 3 (It's coming... End of the Line is coming, too...)

the full thing was released, there was no "ish"
a new boss counts as a separate thing, same with the arcade redux
