Yes.

Conspiracy theory: Both Richard and Micus' release schedules have been dictated in the Death Note.

I think the wait will turn into a bigger parody than it already is if nothing happens next year. It'll be Boc Nukem 5never ;)


By 2024, if nothing happens, this thread will be nothing but memes

Given that we're dealing with two obscure dudes from across the pond that have a penchant for sampling, I think we're looking at a "Limboards of the Canadost".

Holy Eris, I just realized TCH is older than that game. I started high school before that game came out! WTF that feels wrong for some reason :|

What if Valve can’t release HL3 yet because they’re waiting on BoC to finish the OST.

Theory: They have engraved the next release on the metallic surface of asteroid 16Psyche which will be revealed when the NASA Psyche mission reaches it's destination in 2030, of course the data engraved in DVD fashion with DRM encrypted using advanced Twosfish-Serpent ciphers, the key to which has yet to be revealed but has been rumoured to have been cast by the RT-70 radio-telescope in Yevpatoria, Ukraine in 1999 (Cosmic Call 1) and 2003 (Cosmic Call 2) to various nearby stars.

Of course due to time dilation and other relativistic effects like frame dragging and interstellar dust, the crypto key might have been garbled beyond recognition and will be unusable, leaving us with a transmission not worth a slug's turd.

As the movie said... what if this is as good as it gets?
Molest me not with this pocket calculator stuff.

I'll be long gone from this thread by that point. :wink:

In 2024 if the results are the same, I want to see (as an social experiment) what would happen if this topic was locked for a whole week. Users having to fulfill their twoism life elsewhere just for that time period. I do think the results would be interesting. :)

Holy stromboli, I thought I was the only one around here who knew about that game! There's something strangely compelling about it in spite of how it completely and utterly fails in just about every aspect of game design. Or maybe it's directly because of that :P

In any case, at least the new BoC album still hasn't taken as long to finish as Limbo Of The Lost did yet!
The Crappy Games Wiki wrote:The game had been under development for 13 years (since 1994 to 2007). Due to this, most of various elements and gameplay mechanics were horribly aged at the release. (source)

Also the main character even looks a bit like one of the BoC brothers if you squint hard enough lmao

That game belongs in a museum. I still can't believe it got onto store shelves and am not even sure if the fact that 99% of the game is made of stolen assets is out of laziness, frustration, or some form of artistic statement. They can't all be Barkley: SU&J Gaiden or I Wanna Be The Guy :lol:

I first saw that ending on some YT compilation video of weird video game endings (the game had to be brand new at that time, unbeknownst to me) and later got to see the game in full through Vinesauce. Mandalore Gaming did a great review/overview of it if you haven't seen it:

I feel your pain man. Now that MDG officially announced the new album and the BOC Twitter stopped liking tweets, there's been less signs. This is probably the time we gotta buckle up for the long grind til next year! :D

Yes that, but also the seemingly nonsensical replacement of HI’s profile and banner pic… maddening! Lol

If I’m not mistaken the Facebook page had an all black banner / pfp, but they changed it to all black again for seemingly no reason
Ooooo, it's pink!
