I think Frontier should do a live stream this Wednesday (29th January) anyway ...

I accept that the CM's might not have the info they want to present, ready for the 29th, but I think missing this month's stream will do more harm than good. They spent a year rebuilding goodwill in the community, it hurts to see them take that for granted now.

Even if the live stream is Arthur and one or two others streaming from their homes, like they've done in the past, just talking informally about things, reflecting on the last year etc it would be better than no stream at all. If necessary, quickly make a list for themselves on things not to talk about, to maintain NDA information.

While I would also prefer to have a FU stream this month, I agree with Frontier to not have one if there's nothing to talk about.

My vote is a definite NO for the return of filler streams. Looking at community screenshots while explaining how Arx and paintjobs work gets real old real quick. Those streams were painful to watch and I assume also painful to host.

Eh, 50 minutes of streaming PC then 10 minutes of streaming ED?

It is very interesting that you argue that the interest in playing the game by fdev employees can be measured in the amount of streams done by the community department.

Imagine working professionally on a game and also putting in 1000s of hours of free time into that same game.

To what point ? If there isn't any news to share then would you like to watch the CM's" play" ?? Err no thanks . The problem is people expect new stuff and then moan when there isn't anything.
I'm going to assume they are busy fixing whatever game needs fixing as the Customer service tickets are taking longer to clear , so they are probably still catching up from Christmas .
