What the community is up to - Vehicles ;)
- Thread starter Blitzk.-Bob
- Start date
That's the problem. In almost any game where 'the people' decide to do something big it comes to a stand-still after a while. Also, RO2's player count isn't exactly a big morale booster at the time.
Nevertheless, I hope you guys do stick around, just don't put too much hay on the fork.

Gameplay before shinyness, exactly. I'd love it if it were released without high texture/completed insides originally, and then those were added in later. The functionality of the vehicle is the main thing here.

I am not so sure, I think that part of the functionality comes with the interior of the vehicle.
I mean, consider if they released tank with no interior, what happens when a crew member dies? Do you just instantly switch to that position when you want, or do you have a timed delay to be in place of the time it would take to move to that position?
No one has to answer these questions, I am just thinking out loud, but I feel the interior of the tanks brings in a whole new element that we did not have before and taking it away just because we want more stuff sooner, idk.
I feel like if TWI is going to make tanks this new way they should stick to what they set out and go big.
*edit* but for these guys doing the vehicles they can do whatever they want
it is their project.

A few posts have been made where people tell that projects like this often come to a halt. Well one of the reasons why projects like this do come to a halt is because of a less constructive attitude from some people outside the project. If you work on a project like this, then it's often hard. Need to find a balance between work (or school or both), family and the project. Often it's the family that gets the worst part of the deal (meaning less attention). If the project members then read posts which don't sound to positive, and if they see them too often, then the next question will pop-up into their mind "Why and for whom am I doing this?". That's one of the reasons why these kind of projects come to a halt. So please be more positive and constructive. That will be a much better motivator for the team.

I wonder if anybody has tried doing a Kick-Starter campaign for something like this. Good way to get some donations in to at least buy the community devs a bear!

Well thankfully only really one post in here has been negative so we are kind of good so far.
I also agree with the interior thing, right now the important thing is getting them in game and making sure they work well and such. So I'd say maybe early on they could release it without an interior then after everything goes fine in how it works and such then the interior can be added later. Well that in unless they just want to release the whole thing done right then and there

I hope you mean a beer...
Maybe that's what I originally meant, but wouldn't a large ursine mammal be much cooler!

Devs are always looking for bears, especially free ones. Our lead programmer's wife has been telling him no for several months now

You have to look at the Pros, Bears are great for PR, advertisement, and bragging right "hey why should I buy this companies game?" "because they have a ****en bear" boom instant sale.
Also keeping a leashed bear in the office increases the efficiency of work to maximum where as if something not done on time the leash gets a bit longer.
Bob I think I should be hired as PR for the mod, hype levels would be insane lol
Anyways you said last week we might get some new screens this week? any ETA on those?

This isn't coming to a halt. I've seen/been a part of many projects go tits-up, but this has too much talent, and too much good work already put into it. It's very exciting, and I look forward to our releases.
