New patch without new content

  • Really, gf is a company crap, well done until December, weeks of boredom and waiting for content. If there are still people playing this.


    How difficult is it to do things right and get to work?


    if they are going to take so long, better close the game and leave this for peace gf.

  • wow... i just can not really put it into words, how long the Content bubble gum is pulled, until it's replaced with some new Content chewing gum. For my part, i hope that something is going on there and as much as i want to chisel hope in Stone, i confuse it with a balloon in which hope simply bursts.

  • im disappointed, its so annoying how gameforge destroy this game... lets see if they dont release any content until january im out.


    really sad that bsw closed

    Server: Candus [EU]
    Main: Rayheart [Haru Estia]

    Twink: Yuiheart [Chii Aruel] | Aiyheart [Iris Yuma] | Kyeheart [Erwin Arclight]

  • There is no better adjective to describe the current state of the situation. Back in May of 2019, we were finally closing the huge gap between our server and the original sever; we were closer than ever before, 7-6 months behind(Yes, I know it isn't close, but this is the closest we have ever been). This was done after they implemented Skyclock Palace in May 26th. Skyclock first came out in September 2018 back in KR.


    Here I thought we were finally closing the gap, but guess not. That was our closest we ever had been. But here's the punchline: We gained 6 months of lack of content adding up to almost a year behind of content if the recent released roadmap is correct this time around.


    Dipluce Horizon was released back in 2018 in December.

    We are apparently getting Dipluce Horizon in 2019 of December.


    I've been not been saying much about this matter due to multiple reasons one being that I don't have a single clue of what's going on inside GF HQ. However, At this point, none of the excuses you've previously made will ever justify the lack of competence you have showed us this time around. All changes made with the excuse of faster content seem to have ended up in vain.


    I won't exclude the fact that you added Chii Aruel ahead of the time; however, those who do not play the character have been paused in content ever since.

    dddd

  • Honestly, at this point I've already resigned myself and can only hope for a miracle for this game, or for a better publisher to take this game, and let us keep our progress.


    Or, at the very least, give us some concrete dates! I'm fine with waiting with a set date to look forward to. But now, I have no idea. First, they said end of October/start of November. Now it's middle of December (when I'm on my Christmas Vacation mind you, so I won't even be able to play the game until January). And that's apparently even not a concrete plan. What's next? End of January? Middle of February? If they don't set a concrete date, the players will have nothing concrete to look forward too. And even the developers may not be motivated to work on it. "Eh, they'll just delay it if we don't finish, so it's fine to slack".


    I hope that when they said "timeframes might be slightly altered in the future", they mean that they might release the updates earlier than planned. But I might be giving them too much benefit of the doubt. If it does happen, I'll gladly eat my words.

  • It has been over 6 months since our last true content update in May (Skyclock Palace). Yes we did recently get Chii but she's really just another character to play old content with, not content itself. She also released in KR way back in February but since there was no voice acting involved in porting her (unlike JP) and GF cut half the language support we should have easily had her early summer. There's really no explanation for these extreme content delays other than the deliberate withholding of easily ported content or maybe there's an issue with the Lion Games dev team? (yet they can crank out a ton of content for KR in the same time-span???).


    We were told to expect Time Attack in October, but as of now the only information we have of what happened was a vague German post (Chii Update status & Boost events!) no English announcement of the apparent delay announced in that post (Why not?), and then today a roadmap (Roadmap – Upcoming updates) telling us there's no estimated date of when to expect it anymore. WHAT?????


    Speaking of today's roadmap there was also the other 2 points that raised some serious eyebrows.


    1) Dipluce Horizon mid December

    Dipluce Horizon was released on December 20th 2018 in KR. That means we're going to be an entire year behind them with this. So what's holding things up? JP had Dipluce much earlier this year. They even got Hidden Hideout months ago!!! On top of that they also got VOICE ACTING. All our version needed was some text translations and copy + paste of code/content from Lion Games. That's it. There is no justifiable explanation for why we're AN ENTIRE YEAR behind KR now. In reality we should have received Dipluce over the summer!!!


    2) Chii's advancement first quarter 2020

    In KR, Chii's advancement was released only about a month after her initial release in February. There is no reason we shouldn't be able to follow this time-frame as well. It's very little in terms of code changes (just a few new skills) and such a small amount of text to translate that it just makes no sense why we should wait any longer than they had to between her initial release -> advancement.


    Worst of all there's no mention of any of the other new content we've been waiting on either. As a refresher here is a rough list of features/content we're still waiting on. Almost everything in this list was released in KR during (and even before) the same period of time that we only got AoV, IDD, SCP & Chii:


    -Corrupted Records (SERIOUSLY WHERE IS THIS!?!?)

    -Time Attack

    -Level 65 cap, level 62 new skill for all chars

    -Dipluce Horizon: 1st 4 zones

    -Primal Hero

    -Chii Advancement

    -Dipluce Horizon: Hidden Hideout

    -Abyss Lounge

    -Innocent Daydream pt 2

    -Desire Worker

    -Lily, Jin, Erwin (and Stella?) re-balancing.

    -Level 68 cap

    -Dipluce Horizon: new zones recently added in KR

    -Equipment refinement overhaul

    -Energy Converter rolling overhaul


    This is no small list and continues to grow bigger and bigger every few weeks. Towards the end of last winter it almost seemed like we were about to catch up but now we are so far behind that the content gap is worse than it has ever been. Why is this happening??


    Remember "We're removing support for half our languages for faster translation times"?


    Remember "We're doing a code merge so we have all the latest features available"?


    So why are we at our all-time slowest pace of content releases while KR is turning out new content almost once a month now? Does any of this make sense? Will we ever even receive half of the above list before this game shuts down?


    Seriously what is going on here? I can only see 2 possibilities:


    A) Gameforge is deliberately withholding content beyond any reasonable release schedule as some kind of marketing/cost 'strategy' and it has nothing to do with the effort involved in porting it to us.


    B) The Lion Games dev team can't handle porting content yet mysteriously hasn't had much difficulty helping JP get their content much faster than us.


    Dropping languages and code merge excuses were obviously lies so what is it? Can we get the honest truth as to what is actually going on?

  • As a side, there's also the Soulworker audio episodes. While it's not gameplay related, they're pretty important to the lore, which to me is one of the biggest reasons why I'm playing SW. If it wasn't for GCC's writing being much more interesting, (and looking at the KR content) then I probably would've lost motivation to keep playing. And while they've been translated by Kyaru (I appreciate him and his translation a lot, though it often makes be envious of KR and their content XD), it'd be nice to see them have an official sub.

  • i expect no response from this shit team and nobody else should. i think it's almost time to just give up on this version of the game.

  • For those who did not know, by the end of November, Soulworker KR will have:


    -A new Raid, Luna Fall, or LF.

    -A new soulworker.


    I dont really got much to add other that what I've said in my thread. However, I can say is very unlikely for a company to deliver a truth that could potentially affect their business.


    Perhaps, if they somehow can manage to add Dipluce horizon entirely instead of first part in mid-december, then I think we'd be good. I lowkey was hoping they would pull that before the announcement today. But that's just hopeful wishing.

  • You did forget to do this or else they may not see the thread: threea


    I'm disappointed too. That's really slow. I remember the interview they made last year where they told us "they will catch up KR as fast as they can" .

    This game don't need any hardcore-gamers and even slow-gamers should be max geared by now and ready for new content. That game right now is lacking content so hard. Doing Primal makes literally no sense and I'm wondering why ppl still doin that raid. Why?! Running AoV 1000000x is enough, same for SCP.


    Carrying people is my mission right now. I think 70% of the playbase has the same mission. That's it. Even carrying people is boring after a while.

    Playing Main Chiihehehe!

    This my drawings of SoulWorker!

    Carry me pleaaase! :<

    I occasionally do Primal just for fun. It's a good change of pace. Also helps out newer players with the Primal quest.

  • I guess most of gameforge team working on Kingdom Under Fire II right now. That would explain those infinity delays :/


    Publishing a game, which already was closed everywhere including Korea and officially dead by now ->:thumbup:
    Support already existing projects-> :thumbdown:

    doesn't matter. new game hype is good for milking whales. it's their business model
