You know... Everybody knows Eleon is a small company. You do not need to repeat it everytime. They are people they can make mistakes like every other human beeing. This is why were are compassionate and forgiving. We see things differently, this is not a problem again. Wouldn't it be better to make an insite video every now and then about what is on the works? Somekinda Eleon Vlog... Some people dont like to read... This would help a lot in my opinion.
@Beasthammer this time I trolled you Wouldn't it be better to make an insite video every now and then about what is on the works? Somekinda Eleon Vlog... Some people dont like to read... This would help a lot in my opinion. It was stated several times that insights into their Plans could lead to disaster, reading alone makes the Situation critical and making a video of it is an Invitation for Disaster - for ELEON. Idea stealing Thief's working for greater Companies are scouring the Net for such Infos. Of course I would like to see what the plan for the Game in Future - But I also understand what is at Stake here.
Rule #1 of the Forum Gladiator : click the "like" button even if it's an insult. This throws the author off-guard and has him questioning all previous arguments. Then the target is softened for the next blow. Kassonnade, the Evil Developer (ch. 4, par. 3)
Don't get me wrong but what aspect of the game could be stolen before what? They can even steal it after it is released.. its only 18 euro... By the way there is really few things in the game which i haven't seen in any other game. Please mention some to refresh my memory...
Time to go to bed... I know Germanicus... suggestion forums... It is there! Somewhere! In the shadows... some day maybe...
@Germanicus : you can customize it ! The new "sleep" function @Track Driver and @Bollen have been asking for ?
I haven’t been around long, but I have heard at least once that the reason they shy away from releasing too much information about what they are working on is that for better or worse people will take it as the gospel and hold them to it. after all, they are just a small company with like 6 people...
I read that here: I am not 100% convinced because of the following: Many of the excuses they give for the state of the game and the development process is that they are a small team. Why not hire more? If you don't need more money why not hire more game Developers which this game badly needs? Why not hire a professional game tester to give professional game testing feedback? If they don't lack the money then why not do this? It doesn't make any sense when this game needs more developers badly. Theres like 15 types of developers, and in terms of type they only have like 2 or 3? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_programmer
That’s one way to look at it, but I don’t personally think that was the message they were expressing. It’s more that knowing their physical limitations on man power they can’t commit to certain things. It’s a matter of logistics and hours in the day more than funds in the bank. People sometimes have a hard time differentiating a “we would like to do this” and make it into a “bit y’all promised you would do this!” So if they came out with a long roadmap to detail what they would like to do and when, people will start to hold their feet to the fire (not necessarily a bad thing from a user perspective) but being vague gives them flexibility to handle issues as they arise and to work on their own timeline. I’d also imagine the team making this are doing so also out of a passion for their creation and don’t >really< want to expand and let more people in on their baby. This may change, and they may decide to go whole hog and hire a bunch of folks, who knows. But their past and current direction is to apparently keep the whole thing as a small group of friends building something their way.
