Well, at least "When it's ready" is better than continual pushbacks. But can we expect a period of time for the Gunner update on the test server before release?

I make you black, bluue and red all over

I don't see what we are supposed to be discussing here. The 'behind the scenes changes' means that we as players won't see any change, so we have nothing to comment on besides how much he wish the updates came sooner.

Don't make update discussion threads if there's nothing to discuss.

Unless you want us to discuss what we find by digging through the files 'behind the scenes'.

This is just silly.

Yay!

I believe we are also discussing this, and if not, then too bad I want to.

I'm glad that Three Rings have taken themselves off of a time constraint as it got the community more riled up than it needed to be. There will be "When's this coming out?" threads instead of "I hate you because it's not out" threads. That, plus, well, Tortodrone! And it's official! I'm excited for seeing what happens, and I'll wait as long as it takes the developers to make the content for it.

Keep at it!

I actually applaud Three Rings for (unintentionally?) dragging the community's attention away from their actual project and onto the gunner update so that we are now both angry and joyous as this content is sort of a surprise. :P Also, thanks for giving us an official look into future content! Fan art and hype can start!

This is my original comment.

After being a troll for a long time, I can say one thing. I saw this coming. I KNEW this was gonna happen! Its just my spidey sense and personally after seeing the tortodrone I have one thing to ask HOW THE HECK DO YOU MAKE THE GAME LOOK THIS AWESOME?! Seriously, I have my graphics at max and a purdy sexy graphics card to go with it and it STILL doesnt top the sexiness that is in those screenshots! Even the preview trailers look better! Is it photoshop? No se. Is it video editing? No se. I wana know cuz it just looks so damn sexy and I need to play this game that way ; A;

CONCLUSION!

I think I know what these "behind the scenes changes" are. They're pulling a MvM (No, not a new game-mode. Just a subtle update).

Here's what I mean:

They're scattering various clues around the Clockworks and maybe Haven and hiding them really well in plain sight.

All of these subtle clues led to a big update.

TL;DR: The SK version of this

EVERYONE! START LOOKING AT EVERYTHING AND EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYTHING! EVEN YOURSELF! EVEN EVERYTHING ABOUT YOURSELF!...

Okay, well maybe not "everything" about yourself e.o

@Mysteriously delayed GU

Why not release it on my Birthday month (March) or at least coincidentally close (18) like there is for a lot of good things I've seen? /jk

man those background changes sure are intriguing and make great discussion points even though the published changelog is all of "more background changes" with absolutely nothing to mention other than two pictures

i would like to discuss the knight model being used in the second picture

it is actually a new character design where you can choose to have your knight grow an extra head so this way you can bang them together instead of finding a wall to do it to

because here at spiral knights we're all about efficiency, and banging two heads together is better than one

gods ain't gonna help you, son.

I updated the game just now and, and, they added an italian translation. oh lord. I can't wait to read all the stuffs.
btw, "applying patch" is better traduced with "applicazione patch". cause articles are for uncool people.
false alarm, they added that translation only for the downloader. but that means something.

EDIT: wait wait wait. this means they hired someone that knows italian? this means they hired someone?

it's actually a fail, cause they changed the provider for downloads. if Thalia would please post the full release in one time instead of splitting, it would be great.

@gabrihel Google translate

@gabrihel Google translate isn't that bad if you're good with it.
"I am not that desperate to use google translate in any case, it's too stupid, that program." Is the first line of 31 that I got through google translate (Plus additional punctuation) as proof.

...Don't know why I decided to go through all that, I just felt challenged by foreign languages. Anyway, on topic...

YAY! Apparent faster downloads! I had slight trouble with that. Nothing much else to say.

And..

That's what I got inserting your translation in english "I am not that desperate to use google translate in any case, it's too stupid, that program.":

"Io non sono così disperati per usare google translate, in ogni caso, è troppo stupido, quel programma."

Toooo much punctuation and wrong preposition which lead to a misinterpretation.. Not talking about the plural mistake...

The translation for my first italian sentence was: I am not so desperate to use google translate in no way (even if I'm not so sure of this syntax), that program is too dumb..

It's not only dumb to make mistakes one time, it's so dumb it changes the meaning of the sentence every time you reinsert the same translated sentence..

IT:
But is Thalia an It(h)alian GM?

when I filed support requests, the first person to give me answers was always hyperion, so I guess they switch us to french for no apparent reason.

I found a change, actually. if I am not mistaken, when comparing a weapon before, different damage types didn't show on weapons. now they do. split damage or damage UVs incoming.
