DayZ lost a lot of its players, funding, and developers so it makes sense - iirc

BlueBarren

like a good example of early access is Killing Floor 2

they had the core of the game done already but they wanted feedback on tweaking classes, maps and enemies while they added more of that content to the game

Kevin van der Velden

@badp RIP @badp's headcanon

BlueBarren

and it became "fully released" within a reasonable amount of time

it spent a little more than a year in early access

April 2015 was it's early access release and November 2016 was the full release

DayZ came to Early Access in December of 2013 and is just leaving alpha now

So how are they measuring tetris sales? Because those can't all be the original version's sales

Avery

@Beedrill yup

@BlueBarren it was released on a ton of platforms

BlueBarren

> We have 425 million total paid mobile downloads. That’s all just on mobile. We had 35 million on the original Game Boy. Boxed products, I think altogether we sold something like 70 million.

@Avery I think they're going by "mobile downloads" whatever that means

I mean I bought Tetris on my phone...

Yuuki

@BlueBarren To be fair, there are tons of Tetris clones.

I wonder if they're counting those.

BlueBarren

This is why I'm confused by the number

because then you should be comparing franchise sales not single entry sales

but Mario Kart Wii is on that list

@KevinvanderVelden true

Kevin van der Velden

That's a general "Well, when we wrote down how to do this shit they didn't expect people to be so clearly in it for just power and don't actually care about the people so they didn't make it illegal. Apparently there is now scum in power and we need to make it illegal for them to do this scummy thing"

Separated by grid of water, 10 wide

Unionhawk

With trains bringing things in now that the island is depleted

Kevin van der Velden

19:30

More in the modded minecraft sense, with ex nihilo

fredley

you get landfill research for free, initial island has very limited resources, but all of them, the rest are single patches

Kevin van der Velden

mods.curse.com/mc-mods/minecraft/221696-ex-nihilo

Yuuki

@fredley Minecraft skyblock maps work off of building everything using a single resource.

Unionhawk

@KevinvanderVelden I'm imagining something like you place down a drill on landfill and it generates random ores and you have to sort them or something

Idk

Yuuki

Like, you start with a single tree usually.

Kevin van der Velden

19:31

I'm thinking disabling every spawn thing except biters, water and trees, then have trees sometimes give you bit of stone. From the wood create some kind of sieving thing where you get ore from the stone?

Yuuki

And you build from there.

Kevin van der Velden

Then get automated stone miners that just "dig down" (i.e. don't need a resource patch)

Then like plants that automatically try to extract resources from Stone

A credenza is a dining room sideboard cupboard, particularly one where a central cupboard is flanked by quadrant glass display cabinets, and usually made of burnished and polished wood and decorated with marquetry. The top would often be made of marble, or another decorative liquid- and heat-resistant stone. The credenza started as a rough table with a cloth draped over it. In early 14th century of Italy, it took on an architectural form with column and pilaster decorations. In modern times, a credenza is more often a type of sideboard used in the home or restaurant.
