At the risk of being called a kiss $$$.
« on: August 27, 2009, 11:01:39 AM »
Not long ago I got flamed in the beta forum for dumping on folks who were threatening to leave over the update.

I had chosen some inflammatory terms and should have been more diplomatic.

I am now getting a little concerned over how some of the criticism is affecting the game developers.

I see them understandibly getting a little frustrated over the combative nature of some of the complaints.

It seems like patch 6 made the game playable for most people.

Patch 7 seems to have caused a few unexpected problems. I haven't tried patch 8 yet.

I understand how software development isn't an exact science and weird things sometimes happen.

I just want to give Hitech a vote of confidence, I hope he knows the vast majority of his customers are behind him.

I'd also like to ask those who are having issues to PLEASE post in a constructive and respectful manner.

Some may feel the eye candy isn't worth it, but the advancements may allow some future things to happen that we all will appreciate.

I'd hate to see the game development stop because the work isn't appreciated and becomes not worth all the complaints.

When the new version came out, i thought it was all over for me.  Since i am at the lowest end of video card, i barily could do anything even with the detail effects are off.  Now with new patches  (escecally 7 and 8)  i am better with the game with a FR around 20.  May not be smooth but i can adapt to it.  But I am glad that they are trying to help ppl like me with a weak system. 

The only issue i am still trying to fix is all my guns automatically fires when i OTR. the only way to stop them firing is to put up my clip borad.  Skuzzy has gave me suggestions on to fixed it and it still dose it.

I don't think there is much of a possibility that the development will stop. The number of complainers is so small as to be unworthy of anything more than a cursory "FU love it or leave it". The HTC staff knows there are some issues to work out for those who patiently wait for a fix and who will remain loyal long term customers, and they will address those issues as fast as possible.

I'm not sure if you can see it but you made quite a short sighted statement, to say it nicely.

To illustrate, a complainer can be a loyal long term customer, as a long term loyal customer can be a complainer. This was demonstrated in many posts over the past couple of weeks.

With your logic, if someone is both, he deserves 'FU love it or leave it' and also careful consideration as a long term customer?

Don't take it personally, but..

Fail

    :aok :rock  I hope I dont sound like  "Richard Cranium"   but here goes any ways.


I have not needed any of the patches except one.... AH has run great on my system.... These patches are for those having issuses... I think HTC is doing a fabulaous job patching so this will run on a wide range of computer systems.

And I will further say I dont mind downloading and reinstalling all the patches even tho i dont need them. So the rest of you can play also. :devil
