Honestly, we can be absolutely brutal if we are allowed to be, so that the thread is locked is understandable, even if it may not seem morally correct.

Everyone complains about lack of updates and say they just want to know the team is alive and that they don't care about the details, just a sign the team is working.

 

A maintenance is announced and completed without incident yet people complain about lack details and want to know more while making sarcastic posts.

 

And people wonder why the team doesn't say anything until they actually have something to update everyone with...

There has been numerous complaints about the EU server perfomances, no reply to support tickets, no reply to the thread, then comes a note that there has been server maintenance without any details but it is treated as if the problem is solved and yet the issues are still there and you ask why people are making sarcastic posts? This is just one example.

 

Why is it so difficult to post something like:

 

"hey guys, we know that you have issues with the servers, but we currently super busy to maintain our schedule. please hang in there we'll take care as soon as we can but that still may take a while. we wish we could give you more details on what we are working currently working on as we know you guys have been waiting for a long time to get new stuff and a final release but unfortunately we are just not allowed to talk about it yet. we might not be able to give you much new information for the next two or three months but you'll here from us anyway."

 

this post took about a minute. It's customer experience 101. Maintain a line of communication with your customers. Don't let them sit in the dark.

You do realize that we are no longer the customers that reloaded should be catering to?

I understand that server performance issues impact both noob and vet alike, and that any noob with a little bit of experience with online gaming will notice the problem, but reloaded will only put out minimal effort to keep the current playerbase on board.

I'm not saying this as a jab at reloaded, but someone who understands what course of action reloaded should take, with the business of the game in mind.

Catering to our every whim whilst trying to get a release out as soon as possible is not the way to get this game solvent again. Ignoring us and putting noses to grindstones will create solvency.

I know that we are the customers reloaded should be catering to in regards of us whishing for more communication.

Helping companies get their customer experience right and strengthen their brand and long term revenue is a part of my job.

I agree with you that catering to our every whim is not what reloaded should be doing right now when it involves fixing bugs, server issues, banning cheaters etc., but if you look at the example I gave there's nothing about fixing anything. It's just about communicating. Spending a few minutes every week or so.

Who cares about what the maintenance entailed? I'm just happy to know my and some other community members skepticism of the devs being gone can be put to rest.


  

What if we just give some bacon paint, some bacon holo-emotes and change Bunker from snow to bacon.

 

This way, everyone will be happy.

What you should really do, is replace your parts with bacon, so you can cook games and eat bacon

Obviously the wallpaper would be cooler if bacon was incorporated into it.

It's just about communicating. Spending a few minutes every week or so. 

 

I will give you the fact that reloaded needs to be a little more communicative with the state of development even if some wierd aversion to violating IP law keeps their statements ambiguous at best.

 

but we aren't the ones that the news would be given for.  Reloaded cannot make a ton of money off of vets.  we have bought the cosmetics that we want. we have paid for private servers.  we spend money every week on codes to give away at events.

 

all of this is a penance compared to a new pilot, who has done well in their first few matches, and decides to stay past the three week mark.  These are the players who will spend money on the game.  if reloaded jumps the gun and tries to do something before they can get good player renention, and lose more money on the game.

 

I think reloaded is working hard and fast to get a release of hawken that generates higher player retention in order to make money.

 

tl;dr: the current player base doesn't give enough money to hawken. only noobs who like the game will do that, and that is who reloaded is going to go after. not us.

Funnily enough, all servers are lagging like heck tonite, and then I got a message saying Meteor Servers Unreachable.

Like I said before in another thread, we need to get rid of 90% of the servers which are unused and empty at the moment, and focus that money/resources on a smaller number of better quality servers that aren't usb powered potatoes. I too, am sick of the lack of any real updates, but then, we expect nothing less... or more, I suppose...

We have to build a wall... around the scrubs. We need to keep the scrubs out. And we'll make the scrubs pay for it. It will be yuge. The scrubs come over to us, and not all of them are good people. Some use scanners. They bring their extractors and their repair kits. It's totally true. Totally true. I've heard this from a friend, who happens to be a very famous MLG. Believe me. I've done a lot of business with scrubs. I understand the scr.ub mind.

 

And you know what? The scrubs, they are taking our noobs. They are! We don't have any noobs left for ourselves. We need noobs to make this game great again. And the scrubs want to stop us. You want to hear about my plan to take care of the scrubs that are already here? It's going to be amazing. Believe me. Someone is taking our noobs, and it's pretty obvious who it is. Someone's doing it. I'm just saying.

 

(I find it hilarious that "scrubs" isn't a filtered word, but sc.rub is. fuzzy bunny. See?)

if you have a wind energy startup, try alberta out, we got hella wind. This is probably the only place in the world where it can be -20 C and +25 C in the same day. We even influenced Leo Dicaprio's oscar speech/beliefs about global warming even though chinooks are a regular occurance. Ontario is super humid too, so why not move out west?

Ok...Maybe Montreal is pushing it a bit, was probably thing of Ontario  (we get a lot of people from Quebec  down here in the winter).....Go to Hollywood beach here and it's over run with French-Canadians wearing speedos ...ewwwwww...not a pretty sight  :ohmy:

I grew up in upstate NY and we always would frequent Canada in the summer, use to take the boat up there and go up and down the St Lawrence Seaway.... great times. If it didn't get so cold up there, we would probably move to somewhere in Canada.

But cold weather I and I don't agree anymore...if it gets below 60 F I'm in trouble, though I understand it's really beautiful out there.
