Where is our transparency?

I mean everyone was begging for the release of the game and now everyone is questioning why they released it.. Not easy to please everyone.

I wonder if you read my post properly.
We were just asking for a release date. They could've told us exactly 1 week before the release that it is coming. Instead they didn't do that. Instead the release came out of nowhere.

It seems like a pointless argument. Can’t change the past. Besides, it’s only the Beta, I’m sure there will be more time given when they plan to release rather than day of.

Yeah in my eyes the 'begging' was more like
"LET US KNOW THE GAME IS COMING SOON PLEASE WE ARE SO HYPED"

No matter how much we wanted the game, that doesn't mean we want to SUDDENLY read

"Okay it will open in 2 hours"

I know plenty of people who quite literally had to rush home because they were so sure

they could go out safely without the game suddenly being under their noses in 2 hours.

I mean yea sure its rushed but we are the third day into the game, imo we should just wait and see how it turns out, right? They already said they're working on it, lets see how it is on fri/monday. Id honestly rather play the game and crash one or two times a day than not play the game.

Is it a pointless argument though?
In the case of 'no wipe' which gameforge is seemingly aiming for this IS the official release.

it’s not the official release until it’s stated to be. You can believe that if you want, but it’s not true.

One or two times a day? how long do you play the game? One hour a day? lmao

To be honest I think that the replies from the Moderators and Community Managers are more frequent than in other games. Also the response on Twitter if far better than I have experience with Destiny 2 for example.

I actually regret not applying for a moderator role because I think that I would've liked to be part in this active community.

Also and I cannot stress this enough: It is an Open BETA. Not a launch, just a test. And a test that was indeed very well needed. And there will still be fixes and other moderations before the actual release of the game.

So I cannot agree with the statements that the company lacks transparency because I do not agree with you that there had to be a huge announcement for the BETA anyways. The are pretty honest.

Regarding the wipe - I hope there is one. I am using this time to test, to report and to try out things.

You are joking, right? If you are, Best meme I laughed really hard! If you aren't I have a question... Have you ever been part of other mmo Stress tests and/or beta tests and/or alpha tests? I can understand the game has trouble atm. And i do believe they try to fix it asap. However they do not given us a game plan at all...

I am a game developer, and a game tester. Now I ask you what experience you have.

You just explained my situation with the release

I honestly hope they'll wipe. Half the playerbase is not even able to login, while the other half it's already level 20+
Maybe some dont care, but i care about not to "fall behind too much"

I will leave this here.

and be gone

There will always be people who fall behind in games, like the people who join a month later. Progress alone wouldn’t be a very sound foundation for a wipe, at least in my eyes.

Hello!

I can only repeat what I said yesterday: I can understand it can be frustrating but saying “yes” or “no” right now will just lead to misinformation. It’s not that we don’t want to be transparent, at the contrary.

We need to be sure that we don’t have any issues with characters, shop functionalities and other features regarding players’ accounts. We still need a little bit more time to give you a fixed answer (to make sure that everything is fine and wipe is not needed). I can't be more concrete than that.

PS: still working on current issues - we will keep you updated!

I hope you say (Everything is fine and wipe is not needed)..

You're right if we're talking about ppl that actually dont play the game for whatever reason. But this is a real issue that prevents users from playin the game even if they want to, so for me it's enough for a wipe, but hey if they dont, whatever i guess.

Hahahahaaha an even better meme... You're on fire today, maybe you can add a full-time meme maker at 9gag to those.

But to answer your question, I have played a lot of games during stress tests so I know how it is. I know there are a lot of bugs. And i know they need to take the servers down for maintenance a lot. However They normally give you a notification in-game telling you the game will be down in 15 minutes or 30 minutes or anything like that. This way people don't waste time and EP into going into a dungeon to then just lose it all.... So the community stays happy and supportive, and posts like this wouldn't even exist...
