Even in individual experience this "team" is sorely lacking.
Honestly I swear nobody trying to flaunt the experience of CIG's public figures ever looked them up.
I'll be ever so slightly fair here, and suggest that CIG may actually have some relevant experience on board, but that it will never be flaunted. Taking CCP as an example, the guys that did the truly revolutionary stuff — much of which hasn't really been surpassed in the decade and a half since — were complete unknowns. The maths wizard who figured out how to create a world sim that could handle the kind of large-scale battles they wanted for the game wasn't really made public until years after he had left, and the back-end DB gurus that made the rest of the game work were just a couple of silent guys in the background in a couple of videos. They had
one guy with the (apparently) strange combination of knowing the deep code wizardry and also having an interest in interacting with the community, and who consequently shot to immediate stardom (before being sniped by Riot Games) once they started rolling him out on stage, but that's it.
So it's not so strange as one might intuitively feel that the public figures don't have the experience you'd want and need. Those skills are found behind bushy beards hidden in some out-of-the-way closet.
Still, that's the experience that you'd actually
want to see them flaunt: the network and DB guys without which the game is completely .
Rockin like it's 1996....(it is literally page 1996 in this thread I mean).
Pff. Only if you haven't set a more sensible page length, like some kind of forum nubbin.
It's page 599 over here.
