‘Happy’ would require Fatshark put in a lot more effort in constant and sustained comms and content.
Would I be satisfied? Yeah. They’d have done the correct thing.
I never thought Hank himself was a play tester, and apparently the entire charlie foxtrot that is Darktide’s balance and lack of patching is the devs themselves since all the playtesters can do is offer feedback, which, fair.
Let’s not get derailed here with needless hostilities.
They need to word these things more clearly. Even with corporate talk, it can be done. Inaccurate wordings contributes a great deal to all these misunderstandings.
Fatshark said if it ready in time it will be released, if not, then it will not be.
It is confirmation they are working on it and it has got to the point of play testing which is far down the development time, probably requiring some fine tuning.
That’s how I understood it without Hank’s context. Like the itemization mention was a reassurance it’s still being worked on and there will be more info later and that they hadn’t forgotten. I didn’t get any more than that, but I’ve also seen weirder speculations arise!
At this point better to treat this communication as no news, but news coming. There is no news here. It really is one word. It got people excited on potential but best to set the bar lower - So at least it can overcome your lower expectation otherwise lead to disappointment of when expecting more and it didn’t happen.
This isn’t me being negative or cynical on this update. Means “Don’t count the chickens until hatched”
Ah shame. And here I thought something interesting had happened.
But it seems like this thread has run its course. It’s mostly running in circles from what I see.
Still neat little insights here and there. A lot of interesting things confirmed heh
No. There is news, they are working on it, but it may or may not be ready for release with the rest of the update.
And seeing as they stated they are doing it in accordence with the mission statement of moving away from randomisation and repetitiveness, this is only a good thing.
People just need to be patient and let FatShark do their thing.
So no, don’t treat as you say, take it for what it is, a positive move in the right direction that a lot of community is calling for.
Yea too vague. I imagine someone walking past my office and saying Azure servers are responding slow and people have trouble logging in. Then I reply with one word “Optimisation” then they’ll say “OK” and carry on walking.
I think the most interesting thing is that I’m still out here as a mere Basic, after I was too rude for FS at some point and got a week vacation, but Mr Woke Wars is still out there rocking free! lol
Alright I’m gonna use my very limited topic rights to close this thread because we’re at 760 replies and devolving into strange segues. Time to close up shop and move to a different thread.
