Animations from 12 last week to 6 this week. Good to see that he now has final numbers. Statics are now fairly close to the episode 8 average. Animations continue to be the sticking point. 3.75-6.12 weeks of rendering left depending on if he can reach the peek of 12 again or continues along the average of around 7.4 a week. Presuming a 2 week beta period, we could see release on December 9th (Week 41) with the 23rd December (Week 43) being a possibility.

I do wonder if he might then delay until the new year. Or at least until after Christmas, as he seemed to do with the Steam launch.

Fingers crossed the animations to come are shorter and will render quicker so we can get the game sooner rather than later. Can not wait to bang Bella in cosplay ;-D

Don't think about it. DPC wants to make a game in tradition of college movies of the early 2000's like American Pie. There's no logic in those movies. It's all about fun. You all think to much about details.
I personally think the "fun collage romp" aspect of the game stopped a long time ago. He is relying heavily on plot twists and drama now.

Brothers, I have a question.

So fuckface finds Tybalt's phone during the Preps' a*s-kis**ng party and decides to take a D**k pic on it to "Freak Tybalt out". And the picture somehow ends up on Tybalt's public presentation slide which he displays during his presentation.

My question is: How does any of that work??
Tybalt didn't scan his pictures folder when transferring from phone to laptop the dickpic was auto-saved into the default picture folder where Tybalt had his presentation stuff saved.
Or, as I suspect, Tyballs paid one of the nerds to make his presentation, and they decided to fuck with him. He didn’t bother to check their work, and voilà! Karma’s Third Leg gets a public viewing!!!

I have a strong suspicion that the nerds are behind the scenes pitting the DIKs against the Jocks.

Anyone could guess why this drastic drop from 12 to 6 animations per week rate?
Bigger animations take more time to render. DPC has previously stated that in ep.9 the animations are usually longer than before. He could speed up things with a few RTX 4090s graphic cards, he's probably going to buy some if he wants to have a shorter release time. He can repay them in just a week, he has a really high income with this successful game.

He shouldn't be buying any until Nvidia sorts out the melting cables. If not, we are going to hear " I will no longer continue developing Being A DIK because of mental anguish due to the loss of melting 4090 gpus. It hurt my business because I spent a lot money upgrading the cards, therefore I cannot continue. "

Kinda wild we're waiting more than a year for a single episode. I know that if DPC were to ever hire additional people the quality would most likely diminish. But having to wait this long for a continuation in the story is excruciating. At this rate season 3 would be fully out by 2025. And he has plans for 16-20 episodes?? Dear God.. lol

Those idiots buying a 2k worth graphiccard and using the cable adapter to safe 100 bucks on a new supply which wouldnt cause any problems at all... :rolleyes:

well, you forget, he is putting more animations and renders out in a shorter time than before. And he planned to make the epsiodes a little shorter... well... this one will be the biggest episode ever so far. He didnt intend to do so, but it turned out to be the case...

Name one single game on this page that did more than 4000 renders and 250 animations in a year... 99% of the completed games dont even have these numbers.

The most succesful games around here put out about 2 updates a year, combined with less than 1000 renders and less than 100 animations. Most of these game are NOT a one-man-show like being a dik from DPC.

Overall... DPC is maybe the most productive DEV on F95. By far. and no one can beat his numbers, especially not with this quality in renders and animations combined with the numbers.

Does it bother me to wait so long for updates? Yep... but is there one game out there making the same huge amount of content in the same time? Nope.

And if season 3 is finished in 2025, and the whole game maybe in 2028... so what, at least iam pretty sure he WILL finish it... most of the projects here dont get completed at all. And very very few does have so heavy branching like being a dik... most of the devs cant even handel one branch.

IF he can restrain himself a little, lets say... to 3500 renders and 200 animations for an episode, with better hardware (which he will get soon, iam sure) he would be able to put those updates out about every 6 months. And we will get about 7000 renders and 400-500 animations a year maybe... which are numbers so high above everyone else it isnt even funny anymore.

would it go faster if he would hire a team? of course... would he be able to handle it to work with outhers on his baby? Not until the winter olympics will take place in hell.

Remains!

  • The rendering of the animations left should take 6 to 8 weeks.
    • If "planned animations have been posed" true, we can be done in 4-5 weeks at full speed.
    • Release Estimate: 38-42 weeks; Mid-Late December
Every damn friday update is always "animations left should take 6 to 8 weeks"... the Dude keeps adding "stuff": please someone stop him!

:eek:

Easy: next friday he comes up that he's adding a scene... et voilà, you get a January release.

I don’t think he would do it to intentionally push the release. As he always releases on a Friday, if that Friday is the 23rd he may think 2 things. 1. People won’t be able to play over Christmas weekend. 2. He doesn’t want to have to work on patches and bug fixes at Christmas. If he pushes to January 4th he avoids the issue.

If he’s done with beta testing to be complete by the 16th, which is possible then I think he’ll release then.

F95 must be one of the few forum sites on the net where "motherfucker" is a complement! :LOL:
Imagine ... your team scores the winning goal in extra time, while Mum's giving you a BJ. o_O
You are right, f95 is unique hahahaha, I put that in any other forum and it would have been a problem :LOL:

I just love this game of telephone.
The official statement was 12 to 16 episodes. In the forum people keep repeating 16, 16 and 16. And now there are people putting 16 as the bare minimun with a maybe 20. I wonder if the next year would be others claiming 24 or more.
