Does the Ominous Countdown refer to the impending patch...

...or the destruction of the known universe? Which do you think more likely? Inquiring minds need to know.

 

It's much closer to the latter.

 

.... or it might just refer to Odin being released in Beta or Alpha.

 

It's most likely when the Diggle portals will activate to release these dangerous creatures into the wild. Be afraid

 

Are you kidding? There are politicians of all parties that would send an Dredmor either running to hide, or running to ask for an autograph. I don't think just because Gaslamp is releasing diggles into the wild is any reason for us to be afraid. Rather, we should introduce them to the basic functions of human society.

Then, they can go run off into the wild...to escape us.

 

I am guessing it have something to do with Project Odin. The patch will come and a lot of people are waiting for it... but there were pre releases in the forums for a 1.1.2 beta so it will not be a big deal when it updates.

It may be Project Odin.

 

There were pre-releases of 1.12? Are you sure? Because the two emergency bugfixes I downloaded only dealt with item loss in the portal dimension, and crashes. That's nothing compared to what 1.12 has.

 

The Countdown tells us how love we can live in our cozy nice world.
After it passed we will be teleported into the Dungeon (all of mankind) and a fight for survival with perma death starts.

Only if dredmor is defeated will the remaining persons be set free .p

 

I, for one, plan to be a Bankster and sell you guys crap. Good luck with that fighting stuff.

 

I know there were at least 4, but each dealt with only a very few issues--or so I thought. Since you know otherwise, can you point me to a lengthy list of what each hotfix solved?

 

I'll just throw in that the Wizardland geometry was changed quite significantly. A lot of rooms are now different.

 

I've already started designing my Diggbuchet,

 

I probably wasn't too clear. Fausto-Martense wrote, "I am guessing it have something to do with Project Odin.

I responded that I thought the 1.1.12 patch was a big deal, because the pre-releases were just emergency fixes for one or two major issues. So the Ominous Countdown (TM) could still refer just as easily to the forthcoming 1.1.12 patch.

 

Changelog: 1. Ravens no longer sound like Battys. 2. Insurance Fraud exploit has been nerfed. 3. Root of T'char is no longer usable on a serious run without getting killed at some point. 4. Cannonballs now make noise. 5. Exp, money and Lutefisk from Caltrop Eruptors decreased. 6. Social Healthcare nerfed to the bone. 7. Player debuff from sandstorm is unnecessary. The other nerfs to sandstorm are fine.(Higher cooldown would be a better nerf than higher mana cost) 8. The new daggers are out! Yay!

Edit: Seeing how Egyptian magic's main damage spell has been nerfed a little too much, I'm probably not gonna play it aside from the skill cap achievement. Then again, I rarely play Wizard builds.(Or any build with 3 or more wizard skills, unless it's a random skill run.

 

My bad! I just thought that the hotfixes were like a pre 1.1.2 since I read somewhere that it was called 1.1.2 beta... so I assumed it was a mayor fix.

 

You're just trying to tease us into going mad. Well it won't work, I tell you. IT WON'T!!!

 

The Eye of Ra is crazy good even without Sandstorm. Trust me, Egyptian Magic is still good even if you only call a sandstorm on zoos.
