Obviously, you did not saw a lot of EA dev teams in the past. Check out “Factorio”, “The Universim” or “Star Citizen”. Also, check out the first post in this topic (it should be interesting for you too).
Also, rememer that this was different in the past.
please cite an example. I didn’t saw any “bending over” in the past. Anytime the discussion gets “difficult” they just “disappear” like it happens a lot in the past (side note: I need to appreciate @luke-turbulenz and @james for their efforts anyway) . There are also no “final results” about a lot of open topics. This is just my opinion and please prove me wrong with examples and cites.
Creatures are not really new and have been promoted for a long time… eg. we saw the first “ground basher” art more than half a year ago (sorry I can’t find the original source, this is also an “old” one so the first appearance should be even older than half a year)
Emotes are also long promoted too and did not found their way into the game (at least some - most are already ingame). Noone can tell me there are other “complex dependencies” for a simple emote. The same belongs to “visual effects”.
My question here is “Why haven’t they published in the past ?”, “Why did it take over half a year for items / creatures / effects to come into the game ?”
Again not saying everything is bad … but why are other teams able to do so - even (better) if they all started from a comparable initial situation ?
Please read my post. I already wrote an answer to this particular question / point.
You are wright. We should let them their time but we (as a community) should be worth more than a lazy 2 liner. I only liked to mention my concerns and “people” misinterpreted them (as this always happens on the internet).
This is always only 1 click away (thanks @discord) … if I see a “new name” why should I not do this ? And in this example it shows that this particular person wrote only a few in the past … is there any problem mention this ? I see inactive players / users as a problem, yes.
I also saw that he is a “roommate” of you so I don’t see why this is adventitious.
@Northwind: I like your attitude and please read the start of this topic and the related topics. As you can clearly see this was not from the start. The community (espacially I) fought a lot for more updates and more communication.
Again … for all the fanboys out there (I’m a fanboy too BTW, otherwise I would be long gone) …
I’m NOT saying everything is bad. I’m not saying the devs do a bad job in general. I’m only like to point out that the communication is getting worse at the moment (like this happened before).
Gosh, I’m tired of this …
