Tevye Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 One thing that has been bothering me in the forums is how often people take a swipe at the dev's when discussing almost anything. Recently I've seen people make absurd claims like "if de actually played this game, they would know that". I've played a lot of online games, and very few of them have developer teams that actually routinely talk to the player base, let alone have so rapid a roll out of new content. I get being frustrated with something not being the way you want, and bugs happen and power imbalance will come and go, but why does every thread have to degenerate into rants and bashing? If these people actually hated the treatment of the game, well, no one is forcing them to play. So why not try to keep it constructive? Is anyone convinced about your point by a good burn?

They don't listen to the DC any better then anywhere else. DC just gets thrown a bone and gets to vote now and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drlathe Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Listen to the design council? They dont ask us anything, at most we get to choose a weapon that comes out before the others, mostly we simply get 'sneak previews' of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like joining DC is a waste of money and time. Makes me glad I spent my money elsewhere. Edited November 12, 2013 by Anarties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freelancer27 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I think we are the ones who are bashing in the forums. Since some of us are already spraying profanity all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PsychedelicSnake Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I have come to the conclusion that this is a flame bait thread. Any thread related to the Devs is, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KvotheTheArcane1 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 One thing that has been bothering me in the forums is how often people take a swipe at the dev's when discussing almost anything. Recently I've seen people make absurd claims like "if de actually played this game, they would know that". This is normally used when talking about things that were PAINFULLY obvious, i.e. synapse's cost was 15 muta masses and like 3 forma, or the OD's key cost which was like 3k circuits, 10k salvage, or other painfully obvious things like that (or, atleast that's when I see it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They dont ask us anything, at most we get to choose a weapon that comes out before the others, mostly we simply get 'sneak previews' of things. I wish we'd be more involved in things. I mean, c'mon. We see sneak peeks, at most. When I joined, I though I'd be getting to vote on different upcoming features, and I'd see more updates from Digital Extremes. It's not money wasted, but I would like to see more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123Olympian Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I don't know, who else do people have to blame it on? No one can make all happy. Devs do great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xGryphus Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Thing is they only listen to the Design Council. The rest of us are wasting our breath. Then you know nothing. DE implemented many improvements suggested by plain users however this is their game, they have a vision of it and they have the ultimate law to decide how much player base can influence that vision.

Blatantfool Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 -snip- Pessimism and, more importantly, frustration is a horribly contagious thing in a Forum. Without really thinking about it someone will read a pessimistic or frustrated post and mirror that feeling right back, or mirror it to someone else. And it just keeps going. There are a lot of people - the majority of which actually give a damn about what happens to the game - and they are ALL speaking at just about the same time. The forums is an endless, deafening chorus of people with a huge number of backgrounds and ideas all mirroring the tone and feelings of what is around them while simultaneously trying to explain their feeling or opinions about how or where to go with the game next. Such is the way of a Game Forum. The pot shots you see taken at other users and at DE are just a tiny part of that and honestly should be completely ignored. Instead you should look past that sort of drama at what the person is actually trying to say. What his point is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tevye Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 It may be a flame bait, but my motivation was from having to wade through so much rant in legitimate threads to read the good ideas people are posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123Olympian Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Thing is they only listen to the Design Council. The rest of us are wasting our breath. Yeah, no. They even made a hotfix when a small handful of players could'nt play due to that password thing. They do listen to all of the community, unlike many. Warframe devs are unique, whom listen too all the advice they can to ameliorate the game exponentially. Yet to me, warframe is not a game, yet an experience.

CheekiBreeki Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Some of us see potential in this game and we are frustrated with the ridiculous decisions that DE makes as the continue to drive nails into the coffin containing Warframe.
