I hear you Roadbeer. I guess you could consider the new consumables as features. Ya, I take back what I said.

Sigh...

They fix bugs they get yelled at for not providing enough content... They provide more content and they get yelled at for not fixing bugs...

I recall a similarity in this with my ex-wife... Nothing I ever did was good enough.

They have to be able to do both, and yes even if they do people will still complain, but I'm talking keeping the player base growing, not clamping the complaints. If you release lots of new content, but because of bugs people can't play or new players get frustrated and leave that's no good. If you fix bugs but it's the same content every week (btw, it's been 3 weeks) gameplay gets stale. This coming patch on Tuesday has almost no new content unless the patch notes surprise. That means it will really be 5 weeks (21st) for any new significant features. How long will it have been since we got a new map? By the 21st around 7 weeks or so? And the promised content list for this year is a mile long and none of it is making an appearance this month. I know there are die-hard fans that never ever say anything negative, but I for one won't pull my punches in regards to the sloth-like content delivery. I have never complained much about bugs, because I don't seem to get them often, but the lack of content for a game that has been in Open Beta over 6 months is disturbing.

Sweet, could you help take up some of the slack by preaching truth to stupid in those threads where people want the modelers to drop working on content to fix bugs.

That'd be great.

Nah, that's why we have you Roadbeer

[Koniving]

So the hero mech is a stalker with a Gauss Rifle.

Who saw that coming?

It's almost too much for one person.

I did not mean to single you out and I do know you are supportive of the game... my apologies.

That said, thay have provided both (albeit the recent one also brought some bugs) and when they try to strike a happy medium, the community still doesn't think it's enough.

I don't care what comes with a patch or what bugs they fix... there is always a contingency that demands more.

[Stingray Productions]

i hope you're right about the 12V12, i think that's the next upcoming thing I'm looking forward to the most.

much better. That would be strange if we got 2 hero ravens named Huginn and Muninn. I would like citation for that... sounds like Garth trolling

It was. Someone said that he should worship the norse gods earlier in the thread and those two names are Odin's Ravens.

no 12v12; no new map; most of yuor predictions were overly optimistic

[Belorion]

I thought 12 v 12 was slated for June.
