    Just messing with ya, but, it was really nice to see you write a paragraph.  Well done!  While I dont agree with the first half, the second half seems pretty reasonable.   Haters and fanboys coming together... I love you, man!

  • If this is the best we are going to get, then I guess I will just have to wait until open beta or even release.  Will we ever get any end-game/advanced feature info in the time we have left?  And until the server gets loaded during open beta, my performance questions will also go unanswered. 

    Hey, I believe they have a game already.  We need red meat!

    I get that you stopped playing shooters...but how is TF2 always going to be vapor to you?   Just proves that the term vapor is just tossed around loosely.

    Sorry buy a company delaying the game to make it better is not vapor.

    
     

    Of course TF2 released.  Sorry I waxed a little poetic back there.  But my point is that these things do have a shelf life, at least to individuals.  Things can change for you in 10 years time.

  • Aventurine's biggest f-up can be traced to the point they took control of DF in 2002/2003.  They knew the game wasnt worthy, and knew it needed significant upgrades/enhancements.  If they had just TOLD us they were going to take some serious time to make the game right, I would have cut them more slack.  If they had said in 2006, the game just isnt ready for the clan beta we announced in late 2005, I would have given them points for integrity. (yeah, I still would have been pissed)  They have done a very poor job managing thier game.  I hope they code much better, because their ideas have always been great.

    I played TF (and other team shooters) heavily for many years, and waited long for TF2.  Eventually, I just got to the point where I didnt play team shooters anymore.  TF2 will always be vapor to me, just another "could have been".

    No, they call them liars when the updates are misleading.  My biggest problem with Aventurine is that they refuse to give out "bad news".  Part of being honest, is telling it like it IS, not like how you hope it will be.  That includes informing us of setbacks or changes to plans in a timely manner.  If Aventurine had just come out and said "we are enhancing/expanding" the game in 2003, or in early 2006 explained to us why the clan beta was scrapped, it would have gone a long ways toward maintaining their credibility.  After all these years of half-truths, it is no wonder that some call them liars.
