People will take breaks as they get burnt out.

My SC2 friends list looks like a ******* ghost town, by contrast. Many of my real friends put SC2 down a few days after WoL and never picked it back up again. Sometimes that's just the way it goes.

I've been playing War Thunder last few days taking a break from this.That game really does well getting newbies like me started with a flight sim,PGI could really learn something from Gaijin's tutorials(luv the free in game money for doing them)and the way War Thunder has three level's of play Arcade/Semi-Sim/Full-Sim could be a good idea for Pgi to look at trying to work in Casual game play ie: 3rd person.

It could have been when they first started instead of trying to jam it in now.

PGI can't even get rid of the WWWWWWWWWWW-designation bug or make a working machinegun for their machinegun-based mech. Adding major new features is a little outside their realm of technical ability. That's where everybody went, to games that have working features.

"Being designed" and "promised it wouldnt be" are two very different things. Man you really gotta work on your reading comp skills bro.

I guess u missed the part where it says it is 100% First person shooter/view only.

First-person shooter is a video game genre centered on gun and projectile weapon-based combat through a first-person perspective; that is, the player experiences the action through the eyes of the protagonist

All the recent BS with the coolant and the 3rd person view nobody wants has driven many of us away, temporarily or for good.

Theres no point in arguing with that guy. He'll never admit they EVER were faulty EVER. Id almost think he was being paid per defending post
Its less missing that part as much as ignoring that the entire post even existed because it means the devs were WRONG and that just cant happen

Just a friendly reminder, as this topic is also heading down a dark path.....

Insults add nothing to your arugement and do nothing but cause you grief in the end. PLEASE be respectful to one another.

Remember the old adage "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all". It appears many of you have forgotten it. Please don't feed into the negativity, be the bigger person.


And for those of you who are able to discuss and even "argue" without debasing yourselves, I thank you.


Cheers.

But the PGI defence force is only teaching the rest of us (the "core community"?) good English and semantics by saying we don't know what we want... because we don't know what we are saying... because we dont' remember the things we've seen/experienced.

THAT can't be insulting or even argumentative in the least, right?

Name me a very popular sim that doesn't have 3rd person, then name me all the ones that do.
Then realize how bloody stupid this statement is.

Well most serious sim players play in games that require no external cameras, because you can use those views to check blind spots in your aircraft... Hmm sounds like a competitive advantage, just like 3rd person would provide in MWO which is why we don't want it.

This apparently is what the defense force prefers.

Which is NOT a promise that they wont add other modes of view. Are you unaware of the point im arguing or did you just not feel thr nred to deal with logic?

I like how people like you are literally arguing in favor of being lied to.

They didnt lie. Thats what you guys dont get. Im so embarrassed for those who cant figure that out.

Will log in when some interesting additions are made, like new game modes etc.

If saying they absolutely won't do something, and then later on saying "that was our position at the time, things change" isn't lying and you're defending this behavior then you're the fool here, not I.

This effectively lets them weasel out of any promises they ever made or will make in the future, they can just say they changed their minds, this is exactly the sort of behavior politicians use to weasel their way out of delivering on campaign promises

Show me where a first person shooter cannot possibly have a third person option? SHOW ME ONE POST WHERE THEY SAID "We will never have third person view" not something you can attempt to twist into appearing to say that. The literal words "we will never have third person" and I will admit defeat. otherwise youre just crying because you assumed.

Heres the thing. I pretty much gave up trying to take most people here seriously.

If I have anything constructive to bring up, il just post it directly to the devs. If I see someone who I can have a great conversation with, I will converse.

If they can't give you that much, then you can either ignore the post or give it the non-serious reply it deserves.
