Did the zerker community give up?

Couldn't the balancing be unofficially accomplished via a mutator? I'm not a coder so idk but if BlackCheetah was able to allow players to play as specimen it seems rather feasible...

I like the sound of that. If it got white-listed i'd be even happier. Best yet just remove the Xbow entirely and give them what a Sharpshooter should really have. A true sniper rifle, like a PSG1 or something. It makes more sense to see a sniper bullet pop heads than a *@$*!@#$% arrow.

But it is true, TWI is not really known for releasing news regularly, which is a "problem" with many game studios. They usually release info if the content is almost finished and close to release. I think they do it with good reason, because nothing is worse for them than telling their gamers that something will be changed to awesomesauce and then it turns out they couldn't implement it or it is not really awesome because they had to change it.
I'm sorry but avoiding making promises they can't fulfill is not at all an excuse for being so distant from your community. Unfulfilled promises are disappointing, but leaving your community completely in the dark is outrageous. People got annoyed by the delay of the Heavy Metal update, but at least they knew it was coming (although the fact that TWI took a very long time to give any info on why it was delayed didn't help) Here the only info of a future update we have is a few random people claiming they saw TWI announce they were releasing a balance fix "soon" without any evidence behind their claims. If TWI really is close to releasing a patch and has the time to tell some random people about it, why don't they make a thread about it in the Announcements section where everyone can see it?

They have no excuse for being so distant. End of story.

Sorry, but where are coming from?!? Few random people with no evidence? Read more threads in this forum! You'll find posts like those:
