Status Update - 3rd April 2019

Want a real hunting sim, go play red dead

As great as RDR 2 is, a hunting sim it is not. That being said, what I wouldn't give to be able to have a horse/mule here in Classic that has that sort of bond/connection that you have with the horses in RDR2.

What do you mean by that that the service is 100% available?

We got used to getting new content all the time, however EW is not obliged to add anything. As long as the servers are up and running and we can play, the service is available.

Enjoy the game while it lasts.

Until people are fed up with the same and the nonsense they are putting as the copy and paste of weapons, remove memberships, stupid objects like the car scares animals ... etc
Until I see a new reserve or a new species, I do not intend to hunt again, because every time I play I spend money that I can use on things that are important.

It was a joke…

Hey Lenny!! Flying rat missions!! Woohoo!!

[TreeKiwi]

I think what you are saying is that you never look at what you post, after the fact, to see how it looks, or you would have known about it already. Another thought; I don't see any mention of 10 years, or 10 year anniversary on that t-shirt. Is there one?

Stan I think you should stop with the blind accusations... did you miss the part about it appearing on the PREVIEW page???
Yes, the back side of the T-shirt has some text that reads "Celebrating 10 Years of Digital Hunting".

Just chill Stan, one day you will work out I am on your side...

Why worry about stuff that you don't need. Simply disregard it and move on. Copying a weapon is very easy for them to do and opens a chance for a bit of income. Making a new reserve is too much of an investment for them at this point, there might be no payback. It is pointless for us to scorn their business decisions. They are a business.

Why stop playing? All you need to invest is for a membership. No other money required to enjoy the game at its fullest.

RE: Generation Zero - After having played the game... I have to say, it is very awesome!

It's worth putting a note in here for everyone. It is a totally different development team, separate from both the Classic and COTW teams. So production time will not be compromised in any shape or form

I hope you are having a good week, unfortunately due to the Generation Zero release, we are under the Pump and there will be no Status Update this week. However I will make up for it next week with double Trophy and Rare of the week competitions and a new competition for the community in general!
Have a good week all and again apologies, I can understand the potential disappointment!
Mat

Guessing this is one reason why no SU, it's huge. From Steam COTW - "Trophy Lodge - Open Beta Announcement Mar 29 @ 10:07am - TreeKiwi" https://steamcommunity.com/games/518790 ... 6325874439

... AC does COTW and Graham does Generation Zero. This has been communicated a number of times now.

(in the Status Update) - Apologies for last week and the lack of a Status Update, it was all hands on deck for Generation Zero and well… it was a crazy week!

Mat you are Classic's community manager & it doesn't sound like a different development team, separate from both Classic and COTW teams if you are unable to at least give a brief status update. Maybe the above is why a lot of people have lost trust in the forums and the overall communication from EW.

Anyway thanks for the update. T-Shirts look really good!

Hey Reggy thanks for the quotes. Sadly they are still true! The Dev teams are separate, I am actually part of the marketing team

You are technically correct, of course, but for most "devs" is equal to "EW". They don't distinguish between developers (e.g. programmers, animation and level designers) and the rest (e.g. management, HR/finance, marketing, sales). I can see where the confusion comes from.

I don't envy you for the tough job making sure every single post is understood, while having to avoid that you give too much insights into the company.
