HTC Roadmap
« on: January 27, 2009, 04:29:41 AM »
HTC,

If it is possible, could you outline what will be released in the next 90 days or so? My request is only if you can do this and not hurt the necessities of your bottom line. I have enjoyed anything you have release since I joined the game 5 years ago. Over those years I noticed that the more communication you had with the players, the more excited they have been in anticipation of playing the game. Your teaser poll about WWI has created more questions than certanty as it should, yet stirring hungry anticipation more than I have seen in awhile.

Thank you for the preview of the upcoming terrain change. I can only imagine the magnitude of change you have soon to astonish us. I guess I'm being impatient, but, more teasers would be as much fun as vluching all the Muppets on a runway with a Lancaster................ :D

Thank You,
bustr - POTW 1st Wing

it's genius marketing IMO,

Keep everyone on tenderhooks, then work everyone into a frenzy by slowly releasing information then when the update does come everyone laps it up.

Would you rather they told you what they were doing, or actually do it?

Just think of all the time they have to waste patrolling the message boards that could be better used working on new developments.

For a software developer, having a time table is the worst thing they can do for not only their product, but also for their own health. When a software developer does set a time table and cannot meet it, they are constantly reminded of this failure (aka 2 weeks).

Sit back, enjoy the game for what it is now and enjoy the new content when it arrives. Writing code (coad for Hitech) isn't fast food and shouldn't be rushed.
