Thread: If you're looking for TH
He cant be everything. And hes trying to be an artisan to. Give the guy a break. He only has 24 hours in a day. And people yell at him for playing to.
Sorry he has had breaks, he has lied repeatedly to us, Says he will do things and doesnt. He has no credibility what so ever. And earned that ranking. He had the oportunity to show he actaully was doing what he said he would. HE has done none of it.
Frankly he can stay there cause when he does bless us with his worthless presense its nothing but lies.
I always ask this question when i see a reply like this.
Why do you pay monthly? Why do you continue to do something that you so hate? Do you want something to complain about? Or do you think it will be fixed in the end?
The mans covering all of our professions. Hes trying to learn the game now instead of just talking to the correspondents. It will make him a better representative of us. If he faces the same issues, the same lag and the same problems as we do. Maybe there should be two people in his position. One for fighter types and one for artisan types. (leaving out the option for a doctor side). But we dont have that.
Its a game its not real life.
Fodder your absolutly right, its not a flame, nor do i have any issues with everything you post about what he needs to do. What i do have an issue with is saying he will do something and totally ignoring it. Saying we are number one then totally ignoring us.
You see i dont have any issue at all with him saying this is what i need to do to solve what ever issues arise. I do however dislike lies in every fashion. I didnt say we were number one or i will post whats going on 3 weeks ago, he did. So as in life or game live up to the expectations you set and all will be fine.
Heck just come here and admit he was wrong and it will take alot more time ANYTHING at all other then ignoring us after making promises.
Unfortunately Sinnare is correct, TH has zero credibility as he has proven himself a liar several times. He promised DEs and other classes an update two weekends ago. Everyone waited excitedly all weekend for his post, when Monday rolled around he posted a lame excuse about deciding to play the game all weekend and went to the movies and went hiking and whatever.
He lied to us then, we still have not seen that update.
As a side note, JustG is rapidly approaching THs level of credibility, he also promised us an update "as soon as everyone signs off on it", that was several days ago.
This has happened to us for months, you are unlikely to find anyone willing to still cut them slack.
Im not happy with DE either. My one account is a Master CH/Master Rifle. And Rifle just saw some small fixes that made a huge difference. My second account is a Master DE/Novice Politician/Grinding Chef. At first i couldnt understand why people hated DE. I made a lot of money after mastering it in 7 days. I had happy customers. I was making droids and living the star wars life. Then some bugs in the DE tree smacked me in the face. The battery thing is so annoying that my fighter account doesnt even use his pre-nerf probot to fight anymore. Only to get higher level missions. And as someone proud to be a Master DE this is depressing.
I think what amazes me is that there are a lot of long term DE's in here who want the best. And i think i was trying to defend them. I chose to be a DE because i knew its future would be good. But for all of you who have been doing it since July. I feel for you. I don't think i would have had the patience you do.
My background is someone who worked very closely ina lot of ways with the WWII Online Devs and i know what they go through. And I think he has the best intentions. I think he just bit off more then he can chew out of the gate.
Thank you all for not turning this intoa flame thing
I'm going with the majority here.
The only way it should take this long to get 5 questions answered for each proffession is if the entire studio is in complete disarray.
It's *really* not that difficult. They should have a vision of the game that answers those questions readily and quickly. As it stands now, it's pretty obvious that there is no vision, and there is not a whole lot of effort going into getting those questions answered.
Even with the number of questions to be answered, it does not take 4 weeks(Which is ~when our State went up). One week. Max. It's not like it's rocket science.
"Hey designer bob! DE's want combat droids. What's the overall plan for that?"
"Currently our intent is to implement combat droids at varying levels with certifications gating them."
"Great! Next!"
It's obvious to me that there is no real intention of addressing any of the states. If there were, it'd have been done 3 weeks ago. Information collection isn't even that hard. Ctrl c, Ctrl v. Print.
Further, Thunderheart doesn't *have* to understand the questions. All he has to do is ask them. We understand them. We worded them the way they need asked.
Personally, I no longer have faith in Thunderheart. There's several issues on the backburner for a month or more now. State of Proffessions, State of At-St, Creature level changes. At this rate, nothing's getting done.
And personally, I thought it was *really* bad form to say you were going to get something done & posted on Sat, blow it off to play the game the whole weekend without explination, and be sitting here what? Two weeks later? Still without having gotten it done.
I know I'd be fired for the kind of procrastination that goes on around here.
You know, some people rant and rave that we're being fed the same lies over and over. And that's okay. Others choose to maintain some sort of (currently blind faith) hope that we really are making progress. And that's okay too.
So far, the mild attention we've gotten in words only gives some of us hope, and the absolute lack of organization and follow-through makes others of us furious. Either is okay with me.
