Completely agree... A little bit of commu ication goes a long way. I don't need a exact date. I don't need a reply that tells me what the next dlc is. I would however like a little feedback. And I don't need a "we hear you" reply that has no feeling behind it as well. But actual communication like we used to get.
Hmmm. Devs haven't posted here (other than announcements) since very early days, when all they got was complaints from a highly vocal minority. That was long ago and I've killed many brain cells since then, so I can't remember which side of that you were on, or if you were even here then. But anyway, the complainers and trolls ran the devs off long ago and they're never coming back, so give this up. A simple "your issue is noted" is the best we can expect, so deal with it.
I know I seem angry.. (well. I am.. But thats besides the point) I know I may seem hostile.. and apparently some people think I troll.. but more and more people are seeing things the way I do. And more and more people are speaking up.
I disagree. The reason I hardly ever post in this forum is the same reason why the devs don't post here. Nearly every post is a whine, a rant, or a troll. And everything positive is shouted down by "you're just a fanboy" or "yeah, that's OK but it would be better if PC had X feature so you wouldn't have to do Y to compensate."
And I'm by far not the only person to come to this conclusion and leave for less toxic fora. So, over time, all the players who are happy just to have what they've got have dropped out of this forum, and all that's left is the trolls, whiners, and complainers. So yeah, over time, your opinions become more of a majority view, but only due to the process of elimination.
I am extremely passionate about this game. I guarantee I have more hours in this game than anyone else here.
I'll give you a pass on the 1st point as I'm still undecided whether you're one of the complaining trolls or not, but I highly, highly doubt the 2nd of your points.
I will, however, put this target up for you to shoot at..... How many folks in the recent 200K Workshop video have you ever seen post here? Those folks are passionate enough about the game to make such great stuff, yet they're not whining and complaining all the time. They take what the game gives them and do wonders. And there are countless others who've contributed to that 200K total whom you've never, ever heard of or seen post anywhere, and much of their stuff is brilliant, too. Strange you think the game needs so much improvement and yet these other folks are going on without complaint.
The best planco updates and support we had was before JWE was announced. Thats when things went downhill. All support from Frontier pretty much went downhill. After that. They are rarely active in these forums anymore. When someone does come in to say something it feels so dry and void of any actual caring than whats the point.
And guess what? That's totally natural. If you knew anything about the game industry, you'd know this. Every game release represents a huge sunk cost in pre-release dev time. And once the game hits the market, it only has a limited shelf life before it stops selling enough to notice. If you're a LUCKY dev, these sales make enough to cover the debts incurred during development and make a bit of a profit. But that's ALL you ever get. Subsequent DLC sales are never enough to keep the lights on. So the devs have to move on to other projects.
It makes no difference at all to the devs whether you as an individual think an earlier game is the best thing since canned beer and hate their new project. You are but 1 bit of data in global stream and it's that stream than dictates what devs do. And the devs have bills to pay, which they can only do by selling a new product and riding its short-term wave of popularity.
That's life. Welcome to the real world. Start dealing with it. Which for starters means, enjoy what you have, be thankful PC is as good as it is, and accept that it's probably all it's ever going to be. Maybe a minor tweak here and there, maybe some more DLCs, maybe even a PC2 someday, but for the most part, what you see is all you're likely to get. Just enjoy the game. If you spent as much time building stuff as you do complaining, not only would you have more fun, but this forum wouldn't be as toxic.
