Thread: Player Correspondent Opening: Smuggler
ideas is the best to present to the devs. If you are too soft
and ornate... however vigorously presented, get ready for a useless
minigame
Quite frankly, if we get a correspondant WHO CAN PUSH FOR OUR
SIMPLE VISION of what we want smuggler to be, then i'd be happy.
That vision, of course, is player smuggling. I could have Jawa
junk dealing skills, broken pistol specials, crack-pipe cleaning
IV, and the ability to smuggle for players and be happy.
To hell with defense mods, poison resists, super-smuggler weapons...
I want player smuggling.
Player smuggling, player smuggling, player.. smuggling
Oh yea, put me on the BH terms when i'm extra evil
Dr Evil: Player smuggling!
Scott Evil: But what about poison resis...
Dr Evil: Player smuggling!
Scott Evil: Hijacking shuttl...
Dr Evil: Player smuggling!
Scott Evil: Saba..
Dr Evil: Smuggle!
Scott Evil: Tel..
Dr Evil: Smuggle!!
Dr Evil: I've got a whole hidden cargo bay full of Player Smuggling,
biznatch, where that came from!!!
Our one and only smuggler vision is player smuggling. After the devs
say yes... THEN hit them with all the sprinkles and glitter. All
the frilly-dills you want - those that the community agrees to.
I wish you were running electricnomad.
What the next correspondent needs to do (whoever it is)is get some hard facts (yeah, I know, like anyone on the dev side will do that) about when we're going to get some good attention.
State the facts - "onX date, this was stated by X, and on Y date this was stated by X, and on Z date this was stated by X. None of that came to pass, but in the mean time, we have taken X, Y, and Z setback with no gain whatasoever. The smuggler community is frustrated and is absolutely in need of help. Paying customers are reporting that they are leaving from the bad management. What is the situation on your end? When will you get to us and fix us? What publish number are you looking at for the smugglers?"
Now, I know that them responding is a pie in the sky idea, not to mention that they could just plainly lie (like they haven't done that before). But all the other things are meaningless until we actually know what is going on.
Discussing what we want for a revamp will only keep us busy for so long. In fact, it looks like we've exhausted most, if not all, of our topics of conversation. We're now looking at publish 8, and the reality is there will be nothing in there for us. Publish 9 is doubtful as well. That is 2 months more right there, getting us into June. So is 10 the magic number? Or 11? Or... We need to know.
