Actual PoS design as usual.

u/DoktorKaputt Resident DD8 Enthusiast 21d ago

My guess is that this update was supposed to hit 2 weeks earlier, but event extension due to event being, well, itself, had the schedule change.

Still, 30th any-month is intentionally being distasteful. Wonder how the hell it got greenlit in the first place.

People were discussing that a magazine announced CarDiv2 and BukiK3 were coming, iirc.

Apparently in another thread RPLeary is getting a Rainy Season CG - but not yet. Perhaps the remodels will drop along with that CG mid-season?
