It's great to finally hear from them!

Too bad he didn't actually say anything.

I do think "the transition to Sega went fairly fast and we're working on the beta" does constitute 'something'.

It's not very much though, I'll give you that.

Nothing new in this letter. Just some excitment and news that they are working on it. Nothing solid.

Very nice that they remembered that a beta was going to happen, at least.

Just lots of words saying nothing, really.

Although I guess it's nice to be sure there is actually going to be a beta.

Lots of words and nothing solid. All we know is
1. Beta will come out but when? where? and how?
2 Game will be released in 2013. Ok that gives us 10 months to go
People there is nothing to get excited about apart from the fact that Bobby is back alive and willing to get everything sorted :)
Bobby if you are reading this. Feed us with more details.
BTW good to have you back it was mayhem here without you ;)

they provided me with enough info.
i'm happy so far.

if they take a long time to start the beta and/or release the game that is fine as long as we are kept in the loop.

Lynx also added his own comments on the 27th as well.
its not a great amount of detail but it is enough i think.

also, Lynx didn't dodge anything in his post either... he acknowledged "Hell, its about time" etc.
and also admitted the relic forums are in a mess and need to be put into better order.

Duffy is on the forums all the time and he ain't stupid ... he sees what is going on.

let them "do their thing" and let's see what they come up with.

well Blizzard managed to get a CoH CM to post up their own cinematic... which was also used by Blizzard in the same self deferential way for the long awaited sequal to SC1

Blizzard cinematics and storylines are top notch

Christie Golden may not be the next Ayn Rand.. but that woman can spin a captivating tale.

wait what??? blizzard storylines are topnotch?? are you joking? :D

ok diablo1 and starcraft1 had good stories.. diablo2, diablo3 and starcraft2 storylines could be written by a 10 year old. The only good part of starcraft2 story was already established in broodwar.

I dont think we need to mention wow storyline.

uhhh the "story" told in SC2:WoL only forms about 0.2% of SC canon.

as i alluded in my post
for a more complete story check out one of the books by CHristie Golden

Greg Wilson is adequate :)

how big was the settlement.
ya. 'nuff said.

Christie Golden gets all her story ideas from Games Workshop. She uses the plastic models as inspiration for plot points.

Games workshop gets %50 of every book Christie Golden sells due to the big court case she lost to them.
ummm ya.
reductio ad absurdum.

in "Devil's Due" Tychus is really just a young version of Indiana Jones right?
ummm ya.
reductio ad absurdum.

OKSpitfire: I do like that they made the Stuka more expensive instead of nerfing it into the ground though. Found it pretty unsatisfying to use before that buff a while back....

aerafield: USF already is by far the shittiest faction in terms of countering blobbing and turtling, now they supposedly have one overtuned tool locked behind a BG and it's immediately a massive problem?
Yesterday, 13:33 PM
Lady Xenarra: I think post-2.0 Whizbang buffs, the price is too low esp since the Stuka got nerfed in cost too. Speaking of which, how exactly is one supposed to successfully dive this Sherman in disguise? Med tank spam running into SSFs?

Lady Xenarra: WTB Whizzbang for DAK instead of Stuka, 5 fuel cheape, 60MP more expensive and next to impossible to dive. :rofl:

Rosbone: It is also hard to expect Relic to help Coh2 when they cant even make working menus in Coh3 yet, 2 years after release and at full price+ for DLCs. Thats like asking a fish to do calculus.
Last Tuesday, 02:58 AM
Rosbone: But this last patch has made good progress for grabbing players. All we can hope is Coh3 gets to Coh2s quality level before everyone abandons the franchise. Its Relic so they will completely f*%k it up as usual. But its a hope/cope.
Last Tuesday, 02:55 AM
Rosbone: Relic wants Coh2 to fail so players will migrate to Coh3. It is hard to blame them since Coh3 sucks so bad. It needs all the help it can get.

OKSpitfire: Well... going to be seeing the Pershing a lot for a little while, that thing is a monster.
