A) MK2 Reads the forums everyday, Vick although not SDE also is on the forums everyday and brings concerns directly to SDE. You can also send your concerns via support ticket. There is always the thought that SDE is not trying, but what I see from GMs is 100% effort all the time. I'm not in contact with them about their business plans, or game development of course. All my expereince is based off of going to GMs with customer service concerns and events.

B) I'm not intimate with the testing so I can't say.

Pathfinder, I appreciate your attempt at an honest answer.

However GMs can put 100% effort into it, but that doesnt make any difference to the fact that SDE are probably only doin about 20% on stuff that *needs* to be addressed while 80% on stuff that is irrelevant but will bring in more thigns to become bugged. Not these token gestures which are used to make it appear they are actually doing something when theyre really not. 

@ Tappo
We all know what really happens with useful suggestions... Nothing until perhaps 3 years later when 1 semi decent suggestion gets handpicked and gets buggily implemented.... 

A) You said they made the patch. They didn't.

B) Because guns take a long time to actually get right, and we are waiting for the test server to be sorted. Read the test server forums. There are a number of bugs we need to get rid of first. 

While it would be awesome if SDE had delayed it and let us fixed the guns before hand, I feel that the only reason SDE did it because every week you would have people whining about wanting the new nations.

The community whines about broken new content when its released, but whines about the lack of it when its in development. The community needs to branch together and get its direction aimed at.

You've even got some players making suggestions for even more new nations and ships... 

 

Do i really need to reiterate myself again? 

Do they not look at these things before releasing them? I mean come on, a BB4 the size/hitbox of a small CL, speed of a BB5, shell strength of a BB5 (regardless of because of its angle or not) and practically the same range as a BB5.

How in the hell did they not see it was going to be an issue? must be cos theyre spending soo much time putting effort into doing their job properly....

Yes the community whine about broken content, but your making it sound like they bring out new things every 2 months or so, and that they can't keep up because of it.

Uhm, No. SDE leave a huuuge gap inbetween.
As for the players making new suggestions at nations, thast fine, but did that ever make SDE listen and immediately take action? No.

They usually drag their heels. Theyd be stupid to listen and take action while thigns are broken, heck stupid to even contemplate thinking about it. 

Like I already said, If they fixed what they already got, then people would generally become more happier rather than feel like they have to go grab FotM each time something is released...

To be honest, they've put themselves well into this situation all by themselves. What with the huge amount of exp gain already available, its no wonder people zoom right up the trees and finish ship lines and want more stuff.

Fix GB/shared exp first. Then the problem of people wanting more stuff already would fix itself.

But that is too long sighted for SDE to even consider. They only do things for the short run. 

No you don't if you don't want to make yourself look silly again. TNF don't do the patches. Don't blame them. 

Then direct it at SDE. To be honest, they have listened more in the last 2 months than the last 2 years. Things take time. Instead of raging, actually make decent suggestions and try to help, now that SDE are actually listening.

You yourself are blaming TNF for things that SDE have been at fault with. Which is something SDE is trying to improve. 

Really? I mean seriously?

TNF are the reps.

When people have issues, they go to the reps because thats what reps are there for. Reps pass on the info and so the rep job is done. TNF is at the forefront of communicating between SDE so like I said, Ill direct it at him while he can then go direct it at SDE... Or ignore it...
You can get nitpicky about such things all you want, but m points still stand.
So rather than make yourself look silly, how about ignoring this and letting me carry on? Because im going to, regardless of what you say, or how stupid I look, because there are people feeling this too. Its nice n everything that you got your own suggestions arranged with TNF and they managed to keep you happy and strung alongg but how about accepting the fact that they are dragging their heels more than they should be?
