No cosmetic shop rotation today. Probably why we don’t have a ‘hotfix’ rn.
Apparently @FatsharkStrawhat has time to hang around the Discord to tell people things, just not the forums.
To be clear, I don’t care about the cosmetics, they’re usually garbage.
I care because when one studio is releasing massive balance patches that are carefully explained and published through multiple avenues, the other can’t be bothered to keep people on their own forums posted about anything.
EDIT: Though it would be funny if Fatshark did finally conclude ‘oh hey constantly issuing hotfixes with the shop rotation makes people mad’ and instead of focusing on making more content and fixes they instead decided to stop making updates to go with the shop rotation.
Yeah. Just looked through the very detailed and carefully explained patch notes for HD2. The sheer volume of balance changes, of fixes, and oh yeah, they’re also releasing a warbond later today.
The output really shows how hopelessly inept Fatshark is in comparison.
not gonna argue that the way of communication or rather the lack of it isn´t something that creates a positive vibe, the content (correct me if i´m wrong) in question would have been cosmetics and perhaps a small hotfix.
if they blunder the 25th main event i´d be up in pitchforks and chainswords, but not getting drip ( again, no excuse for poor communication ) isn´t affecting my week in game much.
True, but in addition to the lack of hotfix, I’m worried that we’re not going to see anything at all. That the ‘main event’ is going to be delayed because the only thing they have to tell us for weeks on end is emojis on Twitter.
The complexity of it all. The 28th one is sure to be a premium-er revision so I can see why they didn’t even have anything ready (again) or had issues (again).
Yeah the premium store can run dry for a couple months for all I care. The vast majority of things released are either of bad quality, overpriced, stupid looking or some cursed combination of all of the above.
Technically unfeasible. We all know cosmetic pages cap out at 3. Even 4 was pushing it.
They’d have to a hire 3-4 extra teams and take 8 more weeks of vacation for that.
We would also have to buy every cosmetic they sell to ‘keep the lights on’. I can’t imagine that working.
Since something has gone wrong with their prized FOMO store, I bet the Darktide devs are working harder than they have been since before launch…
When they worked hard to make sure the FOMO store launched in perfect working condition, in a game that was completely and totally broken and unfinished.
I bet it’s all hands on deck now that something untoward has happened to their biweekly whale fishing.
