DUST Search - Why the IRC?

I didn't even get past the first few posts in this thread.

At the end of the day you all need to grow up, you're here to test the game. The Dev's and CCP have invited you to help them test, getting to play the game early, prior to release is a privelige. You shouldn't be complaining that you "have a life" and can't spend the time on IRC to keep up to date with things.

If you don't have that level of time to dedicate to you're participation in the beta event, don't go on IRC, i don't. But to sit there and criticize how CCP are running the show is very disrespectful and show's just how childish a lot of you are. They are doing the best that they can and you can't ask any more of them. If they spent more time on the forums or even on IRC you'd all be bitching about how they should spend more time fixing bugs and less time chatting with the community. They can't win no matter what they do if you're all going to be so immature. Maybe if you all grew up, started talking like adults and working together to test the game in a more mature fashion they would make more of an attempt to interact with people on the forums.

A large portion of you can't even use grammar or even spell words correctly and all you do is troll and flame or sperg and cry when someone you feel the game "NEEDS" or "MUST HAVE" is not implemented because it's not the direction that CCP want to take the game.

What you all need to remember is that CCP have a road map of this game that spans years, a lot of what you've said may even be on that map already, it's just not on the plan for initial stages of release. They are doing the best they can and are spending as much of their FREE TIME as they can on the forums to keep us in the loop. This forum is for Beta Testing feedback, not crying like a child.

You don't even need to download an app as you can use the flash based client. Go here: http://www.dust514.org/chat DO 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

Don't need to listen to a bunch of kittens in IRC argue about random crap or post their tank boosted KDR, 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.

Shouldn't the IRC be under direct CCP control? Shouldn't we be getting more information? THE SIDES: 1. This is ridiculous, the info should be posted here first. These forums are the most important tool and resource. 2. CCP can post in IRC, but we would like them to also post said info on the forums and give more direct weekly feedback, as well as continuing to have live interaction on IRC. 3. Whats the problem? Get on the IRC if you want info! THE SOLUTION: # 2 is the most moderate of the 3, and would make both sides more happy, or at least equally unhappy. "A good compromise leaves everyone angry." Although I would prefer CCP had their own directly controlled IRC.

Typing errors are a result of using iOS at least for me. So your argument is the typical its a beta argument. I am so ** tired of hearing that. All we want is for CCP to be more active and communicate ON THE BETA FORUMS THEY HAVE SPECIFICALLY FOR BETA TESTERS TO GIVE FEEDBACK. Saying "go to IRC for info" is stupid when they have a giant tool being misused right here. And when you throw out the words "immature, childish, etc" that is largely your biased view that dictates what you think is immature. Its easy to label things you disagree with. Long story short, a big part of this community has some kind of stick up their kitten, because the members who feel passionately about it get bashed if they disagree with other passionate members. Many of my friends have already left this game or given up on it because of the constant ** we go through. God, we ask cor the simplest of things and it sparks a huge debate. CCP needs to learn a lesson here. Its actually a hidden lesson. People get pissed off hearing second hand ifno that should be firsthand. We are asking for more communication and feedback on these specifically appointed forums for testing. Yeah, go tell me to GTFO. The more I see of this whole thing, the less I really want to be part of it, which is a shake considering how much potential it has. And I am not the only one who feels this way. The only reason I get on these forums to wade theough kittens 3 feet deep is to try and make this game better. If crap like this continues though... :-/

Thats really my main issue, and I beliebe the ofhers as well. IRC, fine, if you use t you use it, but make them equal at least. You will always have to deal with people taking official quotes out of context, but thats the price of game design and a beta. Don't make promises, just throw around ideas for consideration.
