@Citytrader - I understand and I do agree with you, but I am one of the few who doesnt take the baited carrot and stick routine [wink] thats why I try to make a fuss about DLC when I can, because I know this game could sell a lot more if it catered to a more casual crowd.
I am a hardcore gamer. I play many games, some at a highly skilled and competitive level. There have been many games I have played where fans of the game get upset when developers try to make a game newbie-friendly, such as with multiplayer shooting games. However, PlanCo and/or RCT games are not of that breed, this is not a competitive game. And therefore, adding more casual friendly toolsets are a big deal for a game like this, which is why I constantly bring up the fact that we need to bring back the old school terrain grid with cubed 90 degree walls of terrain. I know I'm beating a dead horse at this point, but sooner or later, the game needs simpler better easier tools especially for terrain as it would bring in more players and reduce the amount of tedium people see with this game
Maybe I'm going off topic but, I'm sick of debating the differences between marketing strategies and hearing about communication. Its obviously clear that frontier has quietted down a lot on these forums, which I guess I understand why, I dislike their DLC so far, I have high hopes for the game in the long run still. and so I'll just keep repeating my main points of topics and suggestions for this game/genre/series/whatever [heart]
Every update does have good stuff in it, every update we see the game grow and thats great to see! but I also see ach update as missing big things that should have been in the game from the start. Maybe you are right about the legal aspect, I dont know anything about intellectual property and how it effects the way frontier programs this game, I mean it's really lame that these big companies cant all just learn to work together for the benefit of everybody zzz lol yea o well
Anyway, I know I request a lot of things around here, and slowly the devs have checked things off the list. Theres still so much more to go, but I really hope terrain tools are just taking a long time because of how complicated the voxel stuff is. As I say all the time since many people dont get it, but I am not asking to remove the voxel editor, just simply add the option to enable a grid for terrain walls and easier angles, and it would really help people who want to make darker indoor rooms too!
