Im still looking for the dev blogs from last year have you deleted those too?
Which ones? Any dev blog that was released should still be around... or are you trying to point out that we promised some dev blog last year and never released it and I am too understand your point? If it is the latter the... I have no idea. >.< |

Yes, I am honestly confused. Not sure if dev blogs are missing and I should poke the web team or something else... |

So you're implying that when you write DEVELOPER blogs, you are not actually aware of what your company is doing/going with the game? So you are implying that you write stuff which are still on 'maybe, not sure' - level? This in a DEVELOPER blog. Call me crazy but I thought that DEVELOPERS would know the state of the game. Is there lack of information between the departments and if yes, why? Yeah I know, but FoxFours post just sounded... I dunno. Stupid.
Not sure how to respond, but I shall try one line at a time:

No, not at all. What I am saying is that while we are working on a feature that feature can change. Sometimes we will develop a feature and in the end find out it is not very fun and so we don't put it out. Or maybe we work on a feature and are unable to solve a massive defect with it. Or maybe we develop a feature and are just not able to get it done in time for localization/code freeze for that release.
What I am saying is we work in an agile development environment and that means while we set some goals at the beginning of a release saying "feature X, Y, and Z will be ready by date A" is incredibly hard.
Quote:So you are implying that you write stuff which are still on 'maybe, not sure' - level?
It's a development blog, we try and write about things that are still in development not things that are out. As I pointed out above this means that sometimes we are unsure if a feature will make a specific release.
Quote:This in a DEVELOPER blog.
Indeed.
Quote:Call me crazy but I thought that DEVELOPERS would know the state of the game.
We do our very best to, but that does not know we can predict the feature. Problems come up, things change, maybe we realize things are not fun, whatever the problem may be sometimes we are not sure if a feature will be ready for release.
Quote:Is there lack of information between the departments and if yes, why?
It's not about that. We only write dev blogs about things we work on. You won't see a dev blog from me about the balancing of equipment/modules or about level design. I don't work on those things.

I guess, most my posts sound stupid. /me shrugs |

I guess, most my posts sound stupid. /me shrugs and to be honest, SoxFour, as one of the first to champion your 10m likes for the name change, i couldnt bring myself to like that post of yours... i have enjoyed your sarcasm and witty banter many times before, but that post came off more childish tantrum upon initial glance... the lack of voice in text makes it hard to distinguish at times...
My apologies. I am trying to make up for it with this thread: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=86799
The original point I was trying to make, and you are write it was probably lost in the text, was just that at least in the case of my dev blog we just needed to wait a bit longer for confirmation that what we were talking about was going to make it in. |
