Developement

[pbhuh]

I am not here to tell SS how to develope their game, I am here to say that there is something wrong with it.

The First year of PG, new star systems appeared pretty fast. Graphics were bad, storylines could get some attention, but it was enjoyable.

Then the second year of PG you made the new conquest system, you made the new vega system, you made draconis, a new bp system and ended with another new conquest system.

You see the pattern?

SS created 5 star systems last year and ended this year with 2. All you did was adding new stuff that many of us didn't like.

Please SS, create this year less of those "new" systems and start working on new star systems so people can keep playing this game instead of being frustrated about new updates.

To save time they could reuse the old Vega 2 and old Lyris maps, slap some high level mantis on them and you're done.

Those planets probebly really look bad and SS will never use those kinds of graphics. Way to low.

They could touch them up a bit, not to Draconis graphics but maybe to Antares/Gemini graphics.

I miss the old Vega 1 / Axiom-Map as a normal planet, no conquest-planet. It would be great, if Dante could turn into a normal planet, because only one CQ-planet is used.

they won't use old maps for a new system, that would be boring.

Not for a new system but for Vega. I miss old Vega 1, it was a nice planet with the temple in the south and and and.

It wasn't that nice. Aurora's ruins looks better.

No offense, but who is "we"? I don't think that you can speak for the whole community.

 

[Primeus]

I think he can, if you see how much posts there are about what 'we' the pilots wanna change back then you know that he is right.

"we" is the people that didn't like the updates. ^^ ^^ ^^

 

[SlasH]

I see three people posting here so far, imho this is not "we"...

thats a lot more then 3. I don't agree on them all, but this does mean that people are unhappy.

I would like SS to make an ingame voting system so people can actually choose what they do and do not like.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, Slash.

Go back and read the forum, please. I don't always agree with Pb.. and don't always understand him, but he speaks volumes for most of us with this post.

But keep in mind please when going back to read the forum that a great deal of forum posts simply vaporized when it changed... I know a bunch of mine disappeared. So, the volume of unhappy posts does not reflect the actual number of posts on the forum.

People have just simply given up posting because of the lack of response. I personally have - and I know many pilots who once posted are no longer doing so. Why bother unless someone at ss shows that they care enough to respond regularlly and make needed consistent changes? And many pilots no longer post BECAUSE THEY NO LONGER PLAY THE GAME.

It was quiet on the forum for a long time. But... apparently not any more. Your customers are fed up and not happy. What is the problem with giving them what they want? Really.. I want to know.

Excuse me? You have a lot of nerve to post that. Try actually reading the forum. Take one example of the pirate mode poll. 80% of people said you messed up.

You give me any of your other updates and let me create a poll on them and you will eat your words.

Go on. I challenge you.

Or, here's one better! How about an in game announcement or poll? You already know that the results of that would totally and utterly destroy what you just said.

Again, I would be very impressed if you even considered that.

Don't say that to slash, slash is the good part of SS (SL) ^^ ^^ ^^

He probebly doesn't know the PG forum and thinking of the community, he comes from a happy world were the Devs are still mighty gods that created a great universe.

But here, SS are the devils, creating Chaos and War, Destruction and Havoc...

Anyway, I know Slash is also part of PG, but he does a good job on SL so I got to praise him for that.

Also he looks at 4 forums at a time, DE & EN PG and SL.

You have to take into account he's the highest person on the SS ladder we can actually get a response from. Nothing personal to him, but proving a point is only worthwhile if you can prove it to the highest authority possible.

But he*s right.... u should ask the players who played this game for about 2 years. but most of them are gone
or tired to talk to split.

Agreed Lool...why post when "in space, no one can hear you scream"! The only time i visit the forum now is during server down-time or to report a bug. Ranting will take place during server downtime, not because I think that anyone will listen, but it passes the time. Seems a little pointless to have divided the current forum into sections covering suggestions/ideas etc. Much better to have a section called "Wish List". And we all know wishes rarely come true. Visiting the forum and posting anything remotely connected with improving the game (and by that I mean minor tweaks) is a bit like going to church and expecting your prayers to be heard. Naive in the extreme.

 

[Starchaser]

I rather see that SS would cease the developing of new things a bit, and read the users opinions here at the forum about the now existing ones, and step towards players wishes.

After all without us players this game wouldn't exists, nor continuing existing, now would those Euros flow in for SS to pay the costs with.

SS, you have to start listening to the customers, and to the players, and smoothly start making some changes what would be of mutual enjoyment, not only for the part of SS.
Listen to the players, Work together with the players, Forget new ideas, and start to model the game the way we all would have the fun back.

CQ system has improved more towards our wishes, now look at the other points allover in the Feedback threads. I think it would be more satisfying for all off us, and we really would feel we are getting something for the real money we have been investing in this game.

I for me, I have been using lots of Gold here, even against the best justice of my real life costs.
I am not commenting much anymore since SS took over and we have this new forum, but in the old times I was always commenting at the forum.

I get somewhat annoyed when I read many posts, cause I can see overall the players are NOT happy about how things are, I get always depressed after reading this forum.

Once more LISTEN to the players, after all we are the ones using this game, and not SS who are sitting in that ur office somewhere in Hamburg.
