C'mon devs, give me some faith that you can follow through on what you say.

 

"Lastly, we have some more cosmetics coming in the following weeks - be on the lookout for the return of the Chinese New Year cosmetics on PC, and be on the lookout for more holiday cheer coming your way to consoles very soon."

Until next time,
c05

I'm a little disappointed, I was really hoping to get a physical update for once.

I've asked under that thread on the Chinese new year's eve, but the message was ignored/missed.

 

Maybe he means the next Dragon year, which is only about 365 weekS from now.

The amount of revenue it would generate versus upsetting our die-hard PC fans would not be worth it. We could easily flip the switch but haven't for that reason.

You know what, I'm upsetting right now (At least I think I should, but I feel peace, I'm just too used to this kind of BS), you suddenly decided NOT to release what you said you would, without ANY official notice.

I don't understand. What about releasing the Chinese New Year skins during the Chinese New Year would have upset the diehard PC fans?

Well, I think it's because they are for the Year of the Dragon, but this year is the year of the Rooster. I have no idea why this is such a point of contention.

They're exclusives from ages past. I think it would be better to have the year of the dragon stuff during the Year of the Dragon. At this point in time in 2018 we will already have PC relaunched and we can add brand new cosmetics based on the chinese new year of that year.

 

At any rate, it's probably better to just focus on development of the PC relaunch instead of debating this, so that's what I will choose to do.

Valentine cosmetics were also from the same "exclusive" event, and it gets release every Feb; As for the Dragon year cosmetics, were NEVER got released ON a Dragon year, just so you know.

According to https://www.facebook...378285068937272 The heart one is originally belongs to the V day's event. Although I bought that one during love wins event cos it was really cheap at the time, and I brought another one (KIS-MY-chass-LTD, also known as the Au-revoir) on the following V day's sale--I believe it was the last year.

What was it that we were supposedly going to get for Love Wins? Was it a forum title or something?

 

I was also stupendously amused by some of the responses to Love Wins. There's no better way to smoke a bigot out of the bush than by celebrating what they hate.

I see the non-implementation not as a sign of wishy-washyness, but as a sign not to create additional controversy and unrest amongst a global community. The Love Wins thread, whether you agree or disagree with the badge, with whatever, created the most political upheaval in the community in the 4-5 years it's existed, and that all happened within a day.  It's something I'd like to see not repeated because that was a goddamn shame to witness.

Turns out it was also an early warning sign of Tiggs' incompetence.

Political upheaval among people who might have been bothered by this doesn't concern me. Grow up is my advise to those parties.

Grow up isn't a valid dismissal because it clearly caused a significant amount of serious unrest in a global community with varying views and beliefs and opinions regarding certain topics.  It concerns me when it brought out more vitriol among the community than anything else in the past years (which is unfortunate to see from both sides), not to mention discussion of a decidedly political topic, which is, by the way, banned from the forums.  See the Official Hawken Rules 1A.

Like I said silver, if you or anyone was rubbed wrong with that badge you've got a lot of growing up to do. Seems pretty valid dismissal of a weak position. It's like when my kids throw tantrums over stuff they don't understand - it's important to them because they're children and don't know any better but to adults their antics are absurd because whatever they're hot over means nothing in the grand scene of things. Much like this issue. My original comment regarding the devs is still spot on - don't make promises you don't keep as it makes you look wishy-washy.

I will agree with allegedly adults know not to break rules... there are a lot of jails to prove this isn't true though. However, we aren't talking about rules here we are talking about living up to promises, with a small side of human decency and compassion. Stay on topic please. ;)
