@Chosen

What are you talking about, Artix and the team stay up way past midnight. It could be the other way around cuz we never had a "weird" LQS yet.




Nexus... -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:07:14)

Lets see here...

I completely agree with Frogbones...

This is absolutely insane. Its time for the developers to cut the crap and start giving us some answers. As Frog said, there is NO WAY they work 40 hours a week (full time) on this game. This release was due for last friday, and what you forget, is the previous week we had the release on wednesday, after waiting 4.5 weeks for a few measly balance updates which didn't even change the biggest balance problem in the game. Now it takes them 2 weeks to get out a couple of weapons (which NW has had 7 weeks to design), and even worse, its looking like it might take yet ANOTHER week.

The ED team needs to stand up, and tell us the truth. These excuses and lies of when the releases will happen, are just not okay, and as of now the developers reputations have been absolutely wrecked in my mind, and rightly so.

I can't believe this is happening again. Where does it end?

I really cannot stand that they lie to us every week, and yes it is lying. Its not like this has happened once. This has happened so many times, I can't even count all of them, and they have done nothing to fix this problem.

Pathetic as always. Never get your hopes up. That should be ED's tagline.

Im pretty sure titan works like 12 hours a day. Pretty intense for a game developer. He is actually really attached to this game, as all of us are. He is out there, and he does care.

Remember that he also has to deal with other issues, such as the control alt death thing that happened recently. The devs are busy. But they are always here.




edwardvulture -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:12:58)

Thats funny chosen, because they wouldn't ever have to push an update that far. But yes, I'm really impressed with their efforts as well.




aqwshadowking14 -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:13:35)

@Nexus

Ikr! How come every bug comes last minute? How come DNs are almost always posted on the day of the update? Idk what to say, but you guys had 3 weeks and you get a bug on Friday EVERY week. Quite a coincidence, I'm not saying it's not true, but it doesn't seem to make sense at all.




Chosen 0ne -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:17:24)

I have never said they arn't pushing the update, but remember that many games dont update at all.




frogbones -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:25:21)

^ Most games aren't as screwed up as this one. Don't pretend this game is even close to being "finished." Frankly, it needs MORE updates than one per week. It's been over two years and they're still in development?

No, no, no.

You can be an ED apologist all you want. Just know that some of us prefer to call it like it is.




Chosen 0ne -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:26:30)

Ive decided to be nicer on the forums. I am going to defend this game now. :P




Retrosaur -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:28:27)

you'll ragequit. Trust me.




InceptionAE -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:31:21)

@hype

Agreed, so many tried to be respectful but ended up ragequitting.




Chosen 0ne -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:31:58)

Ill try my best. :P

Wish me luck.




Lord Nub -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:33:14)

Is the game unplayable just because they don't add new features?

Sure we'd like more updates and tons of peeps are sick of the excuses and what some are calling lies but the devs want to release new things as much as we want them to as that equals more cash in their pockets.

If they take time off and have real lives then so be it. I doubt they ever claimed to work 8 hours a day on this game and their full time could have a completely different meaning than your "Full Time". This game keeps producing cash whether they do anything or not.

If your unhappy with the results, try taking a break from it and find something else to do. It will still be here waiting for your return.




Chosen 0ne -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:34:33)

Im gonna go, hopefully itll be updated when i wake up...




Celestine -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:37:34)

Honestly, I'm not too happy about the recent delays and specifically because they have been constant.
Nevertheless, I'm still here hoping they will become more proficient at managing releases.

Many players are angry, yes I get that, but try and step into their shoes.
It isn't just work on updates and content, they may also be working on account issues, bugs, etc.
Let alone the whole Adobe Flash issue. They also have families too, they aren't robots ya' know.

Communication is also a problem, mainly on their side. I'd like to know, and I know many of us would, how they are progressing on a release.
Posting the day of the release about what is going to happen is inconvenient for the players.

I'm in no position to ask this, but I would like to see better communication skills and management from the devs and better understanding from the players.




Retrosaur -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:39:48)

So many promises, not enough work to back up their claims....

EpicDuel may talk the talk.....but they can't walk the walk. Classic saying, but ever so true in the present.

Don't make loud claims.

Tournaments won't probably be expected until 2099 because the developers are too busy listening to their video game music. Unfortunately.




frogbones -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:41:40)

@ nub: Thanks for the suggestion, but no thanks. Next time I need advice on how to spend my time, I'll be sure to PM you for ideas. Until then, save it.

If you think your time/money is being well spent on the product ED/Artix is delivering, that's great for you. As they say, ignorance is bliss.

As for me and many others, we will continue to speak our minds until we get a product that's worth it.

Lord Nub -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:43:18)

@Hyped, LOL

I wouldn't look too forward to tournys anyway. I'm not sure how they would make bracket tournys work and will more than likely be something with whoever earns the most wins regardless of losses.

Pretty sure we know those few peeps with no lives whatsoever or any interest in taking care of themselves or contributing to society, would win every one of those.

Agreed also on the music thing also that stupid pony vs pony nonsense.

@Frog,

Lol bro ignorance? You need to find another game apparently because this ones been like this since day one and won't change because little frogbones wants to cry.




Darkeroid -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:44:10)

I have been staring at the screen for almost 2 hours from 8:45am to 10:45 am

I hope the update is worth the wait :D.

EDIT:nightwraith said he is still working.See his Twitter




frogbones -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:50:57)

Perhaps it won't. But why should that stop me and others from voicing our opinions? Maybe the real issue is that negative feedback makes you uncomfortable---you know, like when mommy and daddy used to fight at dinner ...





Retrosaur -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:51:50)

@Lord Nub
Talk about low immaturity. You need to stop flaming others. What you say is true, however, there is no need to go further and call Frogbones a "crybaby".

Also, disregard Pony vs Pony. It's another game, to cater to another player base. Nothing to do with ED. And there is no ignorance. It is simply the fact that we have been waiting on new content for the past 7 weeks. Even Call of Duty Black Ops DLC packs come out regularly.




drinde -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:52:06)

@Bove
You could have finished reading a book with that much time....




Lord Nub -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 0:54:08)

Lol comparing a flash game meant for 13 year olds to Black Ops?

That's what were resorting to now?

@Below, What's a rating got to do with anything whatsoever? Your new to Artix Entertainment perhaps? You truly believe there's peeps of legal drinking age spending much time on flash games like these? I'd be willing to bet there's very few and those that do have some crazy reason.





Retrosaur -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 1:02:43)

@Lord Nub
It's 13+. Meaning you could be 75 and still play the game. It's not JUST 13 years old, and based on your statement, it seems as if you have some stereotypes towards 13-year olds.




Xs4ntaX -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 1:08:03)

1:07 AM EST time, still no update.. which was SUPPOSE to happen 9-10 EST time!? shaking my head!




Nexus... -> RE: Update Time (8/27/2011 1:18:50)

Boys, boys, calm down.

Lord, you need a time out. Now go to your room.

We have all the right in the world to voice our opinions. How long have you been playing? Since mid-Gamma? Maybe even late Gamma? If so, you can continue to talk, but nobody will listen. However, the real point here is that this is a forum, and people on this forum have opinions. You want to know why their is a large amount of discontent in this forum? Because people paid to play this game, and put money towards it, hoping that it would continue to grow at a constant rate, and that one day there "down payment" would pay off. Well, today is that day, actually, six months ago was that day for me, and that money I put forward into a once "fun and evolving game" hasn't grown into much. In fact it has amounted to very little. Furthermore, I have taken your advice, although it was not by your word of mouth that I did so. I left ED behind me, and found new games, and let me tell you, they are SO much better at all the things that the developers fail at here. However somewhere in my heart, there is a little ache, knowing that the money I once put forth for this game, never really paid off. So I come back day after day after day, hoping that some time this game will become something that is worth the money I shelled out so long ago.

Its a poem of sorts, and its all true.

Have a nice night.

Prophet
