So no community update today?

Hey, at least aqshy is prepared to stick her head above the parapet and actually say something even if it is non commital.

That’s yes. Yes they are focusing on the Console. Not SOLELY but yes. Had the answer been an actual NO, then it would have been. “No we’re not focusing on the Consoles right now, we’re focused on fixes and content being added.”
I’m not trying to pick on you Aqshy but that’s a yes. I am adept at doublespeak and you confirmed and denied that in the same sentence. Nicely done.

True, credit to @Aqshy for ending the 2+ weeks of complete blackout on the forums.

It’s what happens when you’re forced to defend decisions that, deep down, you know are bad. Thanks for the update though, Aqshy.

True, that “I have no information” was more communication then we’ve had for weeks.

We all have different expectations and feelings of urgency. However, as some others have pointed in other threads, in any reasonably large organization there are processes and they are there for a reason. It’s not like all the actors involved are just sitting behind their desks and waiting for this issue to be discussed. They all have numerous responsibilities tasks, many of which are interconnected, and any decision to make any general change of course, let alone a significant one, will take time because a lot of people have to give pros and cons.

Each and every one of us believes that he/she knows what would be satisfactory communication and what would be good enough. I can guarrantee that even our expectations differ and that even if these expectations were met, for each piece of information at least a portion of us would ask for more details - which cannot be divulged for any number of reasons.

Basically, if you want the full, uncensored story, consider signing an NDA and asking to volunteer at Fatshark.

Yeah, they’re doing the same thing they did for their other games. Support for the actual released game is dropped to near zero or actual zero while they work on getting the console version out. They’ve already got our money, so they don’t give two f*cks about us. All that matters is getting sales from a new group of people.

In fact, since their server rental is scaled, it saves them money the more people they drive away.

Combined with the design of all the in-game systems, which are truly mobile gacha F2P hellhole personified, it really goes to show the priorities at FatShark management. Uncontrollable greed.

This is a long comment that essentially says nothing but “communication in an office space with differing departments is hard sometimes”

Yeah no sh*t. I work in an office with different departments, deadlines, and directions, we still have regular firm meetings and discuss the issues currently at hand.

This lack of communication is pathetic. Caping for it is worse.

Pick one.

I want the update quickly.

I want the update to be accurate.

Not that it’s a big risk, we still cannot tag targets behind parapets.

Probably not big enough or with not big enough projects/customers if you cannot understand this.

Imagine ur job is to excuse this trash company and lie constantly to your costumers. Coming up with a new excuse every new week. You guys would be best friends with the scam company which made mortal online 2 since ur both from sweden.

Your game died nearly within a month and in 2 days you arent able to put out a single hot fix within a month but hey, at least the devs needed the DESERVED vacation. Holy sh*t. Do that in any other industry and you can say good bye to ur costumer.

Not even a single Sorry that you couldnt deliver the promise feature in december. Guess theyre to busy laughing at all the ppl who complain and give good ideas.

Lol if only we were as wise as you, we may be able to keep our clients not informed and angry instead of informed and happy with our service xD

I am not sure “quickly” is even in the equation anymore.

Sadly modern games are rarely done by devs who are gamers themselves, mostly by “effective managers”

I have no idea about your place of employment, but I do have some experience with decision making processes in both large organizations and projects involving numerous internal and external factors.

Where one person sees potential for improvement, another can point the risk involved.
