Why would you be sorry? I'm opened to constructive, argument-supported criticism. I'm not denying I don't sometimes go "over the line" with certain phrases and statements. Some people might not be emphatic with us whatsoever, and we don't go around stating the same and blatantly complaining. That said, you can't really expect professionalism from some of us, for which this is the first bigger project with this amount of people. Understanding can be achieved from both sides, but frankly I'm at the point of trying my best to talk with different minded people the argumented way. If I feel people are too stubborn, I may sometimes overreact or just simply stop responding (it's usually the latter).

Yet again, whatever I say, people will find a way to make it negative or draw out unintended negative parts. My posts have no intentions of harming anyone's feelings.

Yes, that's true, and it backfired on us - no one's denying it I went over the line with hype build-up.

It's not our own fault that EA failed miserably and had to shut down this game. Is there any other alternative to playing this game? No, there isn't, so I guess you'll have to wait a tad bit longer for this to come out, whether you like it or not. I've been working on this project for almost 3 years now, and still getting bashed by "people" like you. We don't owe anything to anyone, let that sink in first! No one is a passive aggressive b***h, I don't know how you people making psychological assumptions based on a single sentence. Also, better watch your mouth, you're certainly breaking forum rules.

So you're bothered by the whole communication we're having with you as a community? That's the impression I got from your statement, just as the hype part you got from mine. Weekly dev posts are not enough? Discord or forums' private messages anytime as well? Streams also? Out of everything you can and could have quoted, you're still tied to those two words "no time", which, as me and you said, have different time frame in everyone's point of view.

QUOTE: "When bugs like "accepting group invites causing the crash of the world server" got fixed just now, then it seems like there is still a very long way to go until the game is ready for an OB release." ANSWER: There is a lot of context missing from those kinds of changes, because I tend to simplify and generalize those changes for the public so people can read nice changelog instead of the one few pages long, which is pointless and boring, both to write and read. QUOTE: "The "in no time" line was already a month ago." ANSWER: So? "in no time" is not a valid period/interval of the time itself, thus can last anywhere from 1 month to 1 year (in my point of view). QUOTE: "I'm obviously not a programmer but to me it seems very possible that it could very well take another few months until the game is ready for an OB release. " ANSWER: Yes, sorry for trying to make this game as bug free as possible. Rather have a stable and working game with satisfied community than unstable and crashing one with people raging for the inability of having servers up for consistent 12 hours. QUOTE: "Statements like the above cause unnecessary hype, and when hyped up expectations can't be fulfilled there will be disappointment and ultimately hate. " ANSWER: That statement was not intended to create any more hype, I just can't see how you got that feeling out of it.

I saw something on this, could you elaborate more? What is that exactly, and doesn't that concern the items that are bought with real life money?

Good meme

@LeSighduck Our excuses are not bullshit, other than that I'd agree with your statement.

"Changes" part, point number 2.

Minus the Anticheat reason which @Volin described, we will give you daily BFP to compensate the lack of quests and similiar post-match rewards. This is unfair for the players that will join after the Open Beta, as Open Beta Testers will have accumulated big sums of BFP much faster than the players that just started will. Plus, the economy will be entirely different in case of daily BFP distribution opposed to case of daily quests.

Damn, some fine pieces of art here.

Wait for Open Beta to find out - if you can login, you're not blacklisted.
