That's still nothing more than an excuse. If you're developing an online entity for customers and your entire customer base is rooted in online entertainment and forums and a game, posting updates to those customers is not for your own personal entertainment. We're not talking about trolling facebook looking for a date friday night. We're talking about communicating to your customer base. How you can compare the two is beyond me.


Money. I see the results :P The proof is in the pudding afterall. PGI posting more updates daily most likely has a negligible impact on their monthly revenue stream.

Can you blame them?...

I know if I could stuff my face with fresh turkey, stuffing and pumpkin pie in a span of two weeks... I'd be all over it. :P

​That said, this damn compunction might have something to do with my "generous waist line"....

That's odd, I don't ever remember implying, asking, demanding, suggesting, or otherwise hinting at daily updates. I think I even specifically said I WASN'T asking for daily updates.

Darn near the whole month has passed without a CDU
With ATD, we would have at least hast three weeks worth of evasive answers to tough questions.
I've seen no updates on UI2.0
I've seen no updates on CW
I've seen Paul, Thomas, and Matt post, but seriously, who cares what they have to say at this point. Without some sort of new content this game is dead no matter what their teams do.

The creative team needs to talk to us, make us believe, string us along with more "soon's". Something. They had no problem releasing a CDU giving us a verbal spanking three days early. Why have we had none for this entire month?

Has anyone considered that the silence might be due to the completely hostile community?

Every time they announce a change there is a shitstorm of QQ. It doesn't matter what the change is either.

It's possible that they are just getting burnt out dealing with all the complaints.




That being said.

Customer server is all about dealing with complaints.

SUCK IT UP PGI!

I have to do it all day long, you can for a few minutes out of your day.

It's true, they can't even give away a free day of premium for an inconveniently large patch without some entitled neckbeard saying "Should be giving us a Hero Mech". Ungrateful mouthbreathers

Troll me if you wish, my skin is think. If you think that this game can survive on the stagnant gameplay that we have, more power to you. I don't.

CateranEnforcer: A lot of questions are about things with no ETA or otherwise very little to update us about. Is there anything you *can* talk more about that's not commonly asked about?
A: That's a big question. Yes. And the answer is going to come soon in the form of a new format for the CDU and ATD.


I guess the new form of ATD is Ghost Whispering

Yes, because what is now, is what will always be.

I swear, you Forumites lack the patience that God granted the common dog.

They just mentioned yesterday that another UI 2.0 test will be happening today or tomorrow. Patch up that test client!

I WANT IT NOW. NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW

God damnit, I've baby sat kids with more patience. Its okay though, everyone on mwo is over the age of 30 and all act like mature, behaved adults.

Maybe instead of piling on the hate we could you know... shut up as a community and let them do what they do.

They could be like RSI and do a twitch stream that shows NOTHING NEW. Same old ship being walked around in the same old hanger. Oh btw we finalized that ship model but its still incomplete. BUY IT IN OUR STORE NOW.

Good point. I'm gonna leave the forums for a bit and go take out my frustrations on some poor slob in the PUG.
Happy holidays hunting, everyone!
