Is this the first video game you've played or something? The devs released the game, they're listening to the community, and they're balancing the game. You people have really gotten to a point where you will complain about anything, even good things.
The point was not about listening to the community, which regardless I think they need to do less of, it was about showing us a clear plan for development. It has been too higgledy piggeldy up until now and that is why there are reams of threads on how everything is unfair and unbalanced. |
The past few weeks I have been trying to pinpoint why this game seems so...lacking.
Beta, so much fun. Winning games with both sides was interesting EVERY game. Pity those glory days didn't last.
Forward, people start complaining. Fair enough, some kinks to iron out.
More complaining. No way! The game is great, what we need is moar GUNS, TANKS, UNITS!!!!
MAPS!
Panther is SOOO OP. SU IS OP!!
Flamers!
T34 useless? Germans, no way t34 is OP man! so cheap. Soviets, but it sucks, armour is shite!
Grenadier vs conscript analysis, Soviets can never win!
Soviet patch. SOVIETS OP!
MAPS!
New german units. GERMAN OP! Pay 2 win, ftw.
MAPS!
More patch, useless patch, oh now my shit doesn't do xx damage, fck this!
Amongst the din of OP this and OP that, I started to notice a pattern.
I refused to see it though, call it ignorance, what you will, I believed that the game would come good.
I am starting to doubt my optimism.
The problem is not the community, not maps, not OP units, not new units, not pay to win.
The problem, imo, is this game never seemed to have had a clear development process.
This game is like a tree in the wind. The devs seem to bend to whomever has the loudest and most annoying voices.
Appeasement. Never. Works.
Please make a plan and stick to it.
I would challenge the dev's to provide a plan for improvements and make it transparent.
Cheers.
