Disappointed Customer

[patspartyvan]

I love this game but the recent news has me stirred.
No CT is a blow to the AH mojo. I feel that loyal long time subscribers have been somehow wronged.
We get no CT. No mention of anything much salvaged from the effort.
In the meantime the game has grown old with meaningful updates a bit slim.
HTC in my opinion your customer relations are not great. I will not elaborate here.
But will humbly suggest that you keep subscribers more up to date on happenings and progress.
Long silences / no news then failure to deliver are annoying.
Please keep us informed at least monthly of progress on terrain upgrades, character animation, H2H and any other dated parts of the game engine that you may be ‘overhauling’.

I know that now begins a round of in posts. A few oh know how you dare say that type posts.
We shall see….will the thread be locked. What rules might have been transgressed?
Will this post remain here?
Might I get some kind of feedback from HTC or better hitech himself…….
Am I alone here or do others feel the same?

Yours in frustration and a little anger

people would show you a little more respect if you didn't post with a shade.

More focus on the game we all play is very much welcome in my eyes.  I'm sure Htc will make up for it IN no time.

[Furball]

I expect that we will see a big improvement over a short period of time.  I think and hope that the biggest improvement will be in scenarios.

I wish HTC had done this a year ago, because i will be unable to play for the next year or so when all the cool stuff happens.  I blame the bearded one.

I dont feel that HTC let us down in anyway, im just hoping these news means upgrades for AH2.

What i would like to see is, a major engine overhaul and new graphics, to bring the game up to date (and i dont mean top notch graphics, just some improvements to current ones)

To much time wasted on CT to be honest.

Who wants to shoot down AI, really who ? players vs CPU is so last decade.

[FireDragon]

Mabye yes Mabye no.........................I think running around shooting AI drones would get pretty boring pretty quick.... There is only going to be a few players who are really upset by this.. Any one new to the game wont even know the differance.....I mean what whould channel 200 look like. you cant talk to drones.....


<<S>>

Shotting down AI is no different than shooting down a lot of the players nowadays.  It would sorta suck to find out the great fight you had was with a piece of software rather than a human, but not knowing isn't going to keep me awake at night.. What matters is that I had a good fight.  AI is boring because it always fights the same, and there's no way that CT would've been like that (given the AI variations and humans flying in the mix) without actualy flying CT.

Yeah I'm pretty disappointed too but I dont feel the need to post in shade  
But it was a tall order in the first place wth so few people I suppose and constantly updating people on how it was going when its not going well would be the equilvent of are we there yet are we there yet are we there yet from the back of the car

In the end, nothing beats this line the OP posted.

Long silences / no news then failure to deliver are annoying.

Indeed.

Long silence, no news, people are asked to be patient and trust the developers. And then bam. Out of the blue, it's "on hold indefinately", which usually equates to "cancelled" for the most part.

Yes, having more time to develop AH2 to better the game is a good thing. But its an irrelevant point really. The OP is upset over what happened, not what will happen - and what has happened is a real disappointmnet and a shock to many, no denying that fact.

[PanosGR]

I wish for a more tough and stiff flight model

[uptown]

I got into this game in hopes of playing CT and really would have liked to have checked it out. But in the short 3 or so years that i've been a subscriber, the game has changed alot. Split arenas, new planes & GVs, killer ack , textures...etc, and I've always, always found the staff to be helpful with any questions or concerns i've had.
IMO 14.95 a month for game play 24/7 is outstanding! And I'll cut them some slack on this one. I never played CT so I don't miss it.

So...now that I sucked up to HTC, bring on that pony with cannons!!!

  I blame the bearded one.

dunno who ya really are, but i get the feeling you're just looking for somethign to whine about.

 if you've been a long time player, then you obviously enjoy something about this game. as for CT.....whelp.....we never had it, and we've all been playing without it, so i fail to see just how it is a loss?
 i've been playing for 2 or 3 years now. the "2 weeks" thing was old when i started, as i had read all the threads on ct. i pretty much had come to the conclusion that it had been years, hadn't happened, and thusly wasn't going to happen. i imagine quite a few others did too.
 
 now, htc's customer relations?  i've only needed to call them on the phone 2 or 3 times, and their helpfulness was nothing short of perfect. they were able to answer any/all questions i had, and took care of my small problems too.
 through email, i only contacted them one time......same result.

 just keep doing as you have been all along,,,,,,,,have fun.

[wipass]

cap he isn't complaining about HTC customer service. Which incidentally, I agree is pretty damn good.

As for CT, never had it so won't miss it. But ...... it was promised and was given as a reason why development of the core game was slow. I see his point.
