Please cool it down a little regardless of your opinions on the console ports and Reloaded in general. I am definitely guilty of making useless snarky posts myself, but we're fracturing the community and reaching a point where everyone is going to end up hating each other over pointless fuzzy bunny if we continue. I don't even care what Hawken ends up turning into, but let's not ruin the memories we have of each other and the game because of petty drama. This is getting kinda stupid.

It did need saying.

This community recently seems to be full of self-centred whingers.

You are not the game. I am not the game. It will be what is has to be to meet the market.

Post constructively or GTFO.

But people do need to stop whining to actually speak out their complains. Many complains ARE constructively.

 

But since we have suggestion section ELSEWHERE... Regarding you last line, we are the player not the dev. 

 

Your last four letters went too far, especially the other option is not very...General.

I imagine things will cool down now that initial shock and anger has faded. The main take away here is to try and provide your criticism in a constructive manner and cut out the snark. I know I'm guilty as charged

We are a small part of a market.
Some complains are constructive, then there comes a wave of butthurt whingers to derail the constructiveness.
my last four probably should have been STFU.
better?

As in: If you don't have something nice to say....
I'd be surprised if most people don't know the rest of that saying.

Well... In some way, worse, more like heading to the other extreme. From my perspective, you're becoming the same thing. Ofc you might have your own thought about everything, so let's not waste another one more word on our little disagreement.

Add: Dont have nice thing to say, so don't say at all? We'll it's not the other extreme yet...Truly there are always a better way to address things.. but world actually getting better through some expression, or fight. *some*

Some days you post constructively.  This is not one.

 

(and neither did I just now)


Did I say Call Me Ishmael?

 

You should call me Luna.

We're a couple hundred players at best.  We aren't going to make or break Reloaded in any way.  They have to take this game in whatever direction they see fit.  they own it.

Even if there's a lot of negative posting going on, it's still a sign that there are people out there who are invested in and care about Hawken.  I'd think Reloaded would be more worried if there was a collective response of "meh" to what they've been doing rather than an extreme negative or positive one.  Those already in the "meh" category likely make up the what.. 10K+ number of people who've already moved on to better things.

As someone who is typically pretty much against all forms of shitposting I have to say the current situation isn't a surprise in the slightest and probably is only gonna get worse.

 

Offering up opinions, ideas, feedback, and constructive criticism seems to have gotten this community absolutely nowhere. Considering Reloaded doesn't seem to have a clue on how to interact with the community and keep them in the loop. After months of being ignored and now that we've seen (and some have played) the new console build of Hawken it's clear Reloaded hasn't been listening and that they don't understand where the community is coming from in any regard, or at least that's how it comes across on the forums, Steam, Twitch, and all other forms of social media where Reloaded won't touch or engage the PC community with a 39 and a half foot pole.

 

What the PC community is seeing though, especially here on the forums, is the more outrageous and negative people get the more of a response Reloaded seems to give which actually leads to the community learning about things that should have been included in updates or at the very least someone over at Reloaded should have had the forethought to go "Gee I bet this community who has been around playing a dead game for like two years probably wants to know what it is up and where things are heading" instead of applying the mindset of "It's on a new platform so it's a new build thus there are no change notes cause nothing changed."

 

Maybe this is just me but Reloaded's response since Hawken for consoles was officially announced has readily demonstrated how disconnected they are from the PC community and a decent chunk of their audience. And the only thing that seems to get any worthwhile information and any kind of a response from Reloaded is shitposting. It's clear they didn't listen at all to us before now so it's clear that approach of trying to communicate with them did not work in the slightest.

 

So unlike Reloaded which seems intent to keep information vague, leave the PC community in the dark, keep communities isolated from each other, and play the internet version of the game telephone with information and isn't really doing anything to change this the PC community recognized their message wasn't being received and thus adjusted how their message is being delivered hoping someone at Reloaded will start paying attention and actually putting forth the effort to come off as caring.

 

Until that happens the fuzzy bunny posting isn't gonna go away or get any better. This is a direct response to the piss poor job Reloaded has done communicating everything and it's on Reloaded to adjust their message and delivery of said message to get everyone to calm down, back on the same page, and to get things back on track. When we learn that customization is coming back to Hawken later on down the lines because someone had to screenshot a Twitch chat message and a post on Facebook then others spend half the thread trying to figure out if it's real, fake, photoshopped, old, a joke, or whatever there is a serious problem on Reloaded's part.

 

So yea kind of all for the fuzzy bunny posting right now cause clearly going about things in a decent manner got us nowhere yet being a rude jackass who is incredibly negative seems to get responses in threads. Gotta go with what works and Reloaded sent the message loud and clear that this is what gets their attention and gets them to answer our questions.

 

Personally I'd rather things go back to being handled decently but right now that is up to Reloaded.

I really don't know any other game with a few hundred players that has survived for so long....there must be some kind of official prize for that ?

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 has survived with a small yet dedicated playerbase.  Fuzzy Bunny is that game fun.  

 

But yeah, the problem with all the doom and gloom stuff spreading all over the forums now is that some of the more inarticulate rage-infested posts are the ones most noticed, and therefore are used as scapegoats for the entire community.  Hopefully, Reloaded takes some of the suggestions (demands really), and make some level-headed fixes before the update comes to PC.  I honestly hope they do so, because some of the decisions with pay-walling G2 mechs, decreasing mech customization overall in every area, and some communication problems with their existing community, have really damaged their credibility with us veterans.

 

I just hope they do listen to our collective experience; we are willing and able to offer up any information regarding any aspect of HAWKEN they want.  All Reloaded needs is to ask.


CRT master race... No questions allowed.

 

Period.

I mean, frustration and venting etc. are all understandable, and I don't really think all posts here need to be constructive, but we'd all probably be better off if we stopped being such huge dicks to each other. I don't have a problem with unguided negativity toward Reloaded in principle as they do deserve it to some extent, but the overwhelming amount of it lately in the form of useless posts is getting us nowhere. If we could be negative exclusively toward Reloaded as a company I wouldn't even care, but that's not how things seem to be going down. So in the interest of not destroying what we've spent years building, I think it'd be best if we toned everything down.

Definitely agree with you here, there is no real reason for anyone on these forums to be a fuzzy bunny to anyone else. I'm definitely all for directing hate exclusively at Reloaded until they figure out how badly they screwed up and how to properly communicate with their audience instead of getting upset that we're not understanding their message or realizing things are happening behind the scenes (like customization supposedly coming back, but I think this is more of a response to the overwhelming negativity they've received from everyone including console players than it is Reloaded had planned to include it but just couldn't get the functionality into the game despite this port job or whatever you want to call going on for over a year now) that we had no way of knowing was happening.

If you got hate in your heart let it out... on Reloaded.

I definitely think that restarting the Streams Reloaded hosted before the second silence could help with "soothing(probably not the best word but I hope you get the idea)" the neglect that the PC community has been feeling, along with answering any questions that Reloaded can.

Take these construction paper cutouts, get some double sided tape, and stick them on your monitor in the proper position in your cockpit. Its the only way it will happen. You owe me 1450 MC.
