TWI is winning. In just a short time we've hit what is it, 8 pages talking about the Next Big Thing?

Now if only people would stop WHINING...then all is well?
Spoiler!


Just take a FREE update and like it. You don't? Hey, you didn't PAY for it. :IS2:

I always appreciate new content for KF however I just wished you fixed all the bugs and improved the game first.

A good example of this is the slow bug that still exists after all this time, can't see why it's so hard to fix, just join a server, leave and then join another server and wham - the slow bug has got you and won't go away until you restart the game

So am I Impressed or Disappointed?

+5 = Impressed with the new content as always - high quality stuff but.....

-10 = Disappointed that as usual improvements are left on the back burner

While I was pretty impressed with the new models and skins,but I'm still waiting to see if anything really significant is added to the game. Ultimately whether they added a handful of guns, a new perk or new zed type, we would still eventually become used to the additions as the dust settles and be hungry for more content once again.

It would be nice to see some of the fancier zed and weapon mods making it into the game proper (or at least the whitelist) at the very least, though the only ones of high enough quality I've seen are Ivan and carver's weapon set and the brute.

This is not and never was a thread dedicated to moaning, so stop being a kiss-*** and open your mind a little.

It is a mere discussion on what people think of the content released - REGARDLESS OF PRICE -

I'm the same as others, very excited about the new content, and very grateful. But don't kid yourself that TWI did this purely for the community.
They will make a lot of money on KF sales, which may branch out into RO2 sales and much more. People that already have the game just get a free-update to play around with.

My ultimate point is that since they already did the twisted christmas event, I thought the next big thing would be something different, a permanent release. As it is not what I expected, I wanted to ask others what they thought.

Never meant for anybody - including a TW member I've seen posting to be offended by it, so look at the bigger picture before claiming people are just whining for the sake of it.

Cheers

I think the idea in general is that people are free to explain that they would have prefferred something more permanent, but there is a line that can be crossed. I'm not saying you are crossing it, just that, due to the distribution of rescources in their projects, TWI felt that it was impossible without harming HoS, and therefore openly scolding and assaulting TWI for it is crossing the line into whine-dome. Simply saying that you are hoping for more permanent additions, and would have preffered them, seems alright to me though.

Or, at least, that's my view on it.

Can I get confirmation that the game will be offered at a discounted price during the event and that there will be character pack DLC to purchase?
Part of the press release:
in keeping with the whole Victorian-era, freak-show theme, we thought we would go all Steampunk, with a Steampunk Character Pack. This time, our artists have taken some of their favorite perks and re-imagined them as Steampunk heroes. So now you can have the Berserker, Firebug, Medic and Sharpshooter - all in a way you've never seen them before!
As far as the discount... well no one but TWI and Steam know for sure, but KF has historically been a participant in Steam sales and it's widely anticipated that there's a second annual Steam Summer Sale coming quite soon.

I would have liked a new Zed or weapon but I'm certainly pleased and looking forward to what we're actually getting. It's not unreasonable to have expectations and to be disappointed, I would have liked these things but I'm certainly not entitled to them. I'll enjoy what is being given and look forward to anything else they may do for us in the future.

Well, i dont see why ppl cry about, Black Ops sells ****ty expansion maps at the same price of KF for example. Personally i can wait to play in the new map and kill the circus bastards. Pukey the Clown looks really awesome, and its even more awesome that Tripwire put this stuff for FREE.

Thanks a lot and keep rockin!!
