An Official Its Addressed in the Next Patch thread would stop the flaming; we would know the issue was addressed, not to mention it would make any statements claimed to be by CCP source able. Instead we get second hand information that can only be confirmed by being there, this is a sloppy way to disseminate information to the casual tester; which is now most testers due to frustration with instant battle finder and lack of feedback. |

I TRY to play Dust once a day but with all the reboots there is little point going on the IRC unless I have half a day to dedicate to Squading up, dealing with reboots/crashes/bugs(on multiple machines) and then maybe getting a little play time in. Free time like that rarely appears and I am damn sure not going to waste it mostly talking/playing a mostly rubbish build, with 3 other guys on the internet.
The forums are quicker and my phone can handle them easier, the IRC is just extra hassle in my mind. |

You don't even need to download an app as you can use the flash based client. Go here: http://www.dust514.org/chatDO IT!!! Cause I have a life and can't be on my kittening computer all day hoping to be in when devs decide to hand down their information from on high EVEn tho when im on the forums and playing EVE i dont want to have the IRC up watching potatoes argue over things and then watch them drool as a CCP dev turns up and then spew up some bad ideas Instead i would rarther have CCP make an offical weekly thread instead saying what they think about the current state of things

Cause I have a life and can't be on my kittening computer all day hoping to be in when devs decide to hand down their information from on high And the rest of us don't have lives or other things besides games? Yeah... There are work arounds such as chat logs and search functions as part of IRC clients. They are my friends. You have been educated :)
The point is we arent there to give our feedback not that we cant see what CCP said. The forums allow a dialogue to happen over time which in turn will grant a better sample size not who ever happens to be on at the time. HAV drivers on IRC sound like they are driving fiberglass go carts and that is obviously not whats going on with HAVS now.
I can gurantee CCP doesnt go line by line over IRC for the time they aren't on. |

All the op wants is a stickied thread with the info they are giving on IRC, it should have the disclaimer saying it is subject to change or what have you but that all he wants. My phone wont bring up the IRC so if I dont have a laptop right there its the forums for me.
IRC should be used for those kind of tests and I applaud CCP for taking advantage of IRC for that but it doesnt change the fact that if that info was post by a dev. as a sticky on the forum, in the manner of "This is what we are going to address in the next build, we appreciate your feedback." it would turn this forum into a more constructive place. As opposed to the "Why the **** did you do that CCP?" or "this game is a fail" threads. Its shows progress and in turn more interest will come from your casual testers.

I would rather that the info was given in the IRC AS WELL AS posted here,
I would also like the weekly feedback thread others are suggesting.
Its just complicating things, make these forums the focus and streamline it all.
Also the IRC is owned by a third party, its biased, my alliance mate got into a heated argument and then was banned from the channel because the mods didn't agree with him.
I dont need that crap, its a joke. If its gizmo then yea me and giz had a laugh about that, he messaged me and said he got banned because he was voicing his opinion on the core mechanics and the fanboys told him go back to MAG, last time i voiced my concerns there on core mechanics i got told to go back to a game i hate.....cod....so yea alot of fanboyism and ignorance at times on the IRC. Used to be there alot now i rarely stop by, waste of my time because anyone can see its mainly EVE centric ppl that congregate there and anytime u try to have a discussion from a console FPS perspective on what works for FPS and what works for the console community WHICH TBQH alot of them have zero to limited knowledge on since they dont have the in depth console community experience with how different communities on console work If all the info is being posted on IRC why even have forums? might as well lock the entire forum and be done with it. Got ppl in there sayin tanks are OK and AV nerf was fine when i was in there yesterday....my face was quickly introduced to my desk. There you go If you dont fit in or agree with the mods then you get banned, it is clearly biased and not the best place for CCP to get feedback on a game in development At least with these forums everyone who has the beta can have a say and express ther opionion even if its shot down Cut out the IRC tbh and give use the info on a sticky thread is all we ask so we dont get it twisted by some hack on an IRC
This is real feedback CCP; its honestly gold. |
