Iron Wolf, if your the caliber of CPM members we have.. lord save us.
Your meant to have a point of contact with CCP and can give your 'whinges' directly to them.
If you see a problem, then dont just moan about it, come up with a constructive critisizm and give details and justification.
.... Seriously worried about the future of Dust seeing such crap posted by someone who is meant to represent the community.
(And no this is not a troll.. this is the honest truth... because i don't give a damn about any drama.. i just want to see the game do well.)
Also Iron Wolf.. i'm a professional game developer myself. I know that i appreciate it when people spot problems and give me details and possible solutions with justifications for them too.. as then if someone has a better outlook than myself, i can consider the better idea and improve the game as a result. Do this for CCP.. Use your contacts and make the points heard.. and give 'details' and 'justifications' ... not just pointless whinges. As that's the kind of thing we generally ignore. |

He is not your intern and he is not going to figure out stuff for you. That is YOUR job to make a good game, not the players. If you don't know what to do or what sort of standard you should be meeting, you should go fistburger youself. CCP already knows what sort of problem they have (aka the AIMING) and it is up to them to fix it or not. It is really the basics of basics of an FPS. To be able to aim. If you can't get that right... I don't know what else I can tell you to help you "fix it".
laughable.. :)
(1) Never claimed he was any sort of lacky
(2) He wanted to be a CPM member to have a voice to report to CCP, so he should do so, and not bother whinging about things here unless there's credibility behind it.
(3) Your assumption that i need telling these things is highly humourous. This is not about the company i work for as i do not work for CCP. This is about CCP, and they are new to the fps genre and are making age old mistakes because they don't have experience on their side. Give them time and they will realise the mistakes and correct them. This wasn't intended to be a game which would blow away all other shooters, they wanted something competitive which they could iterate on which is what they are doing. If you have critisims, formulate them effectively so that dev's can take note.
(4) As per the point above, CCP will no doubt be constantly refining the aiming and balance until such a point it feels natural.
.. Personally, i do feel that the game feels 'beta-ish' rather than a release model. They've done a lot right, but there's a fair few things which are problematic. We're aware of it, i'm sure they are also aware of it, and they have limited resources to fix, improve and develop. So give them time, let them know which issues seem to be causing the most problems with sufficient details and justification, and then that will help them realise what to prioritise. Though i'm sure they can do that without your input too. ;) Dev's simply accept the principle every little bit helps, so no CCP nor other game companies are asking you to do our jobs for us thanks.. we can do them fine ;)
