TLOPO has come a long way since Alpha, and now has 50,000. All of this voluntary. We have to appreciate that before we even talk about this just remember. Don't ever forget that. We really need to be extremely grateful. But now to the topic at hand.
So at this point we really really really really need more communication and word on whats going to happen and what has happened so far if we are going to keep the players from losing their minds. I personally don't care either way and fully respect the staff and all that they do but by now 70% don't share my views.
And again, keep up the good work and never give up!
- In version 1.3.2, Land combat didn't lag heavily like it did "post 1.3.3"
- We currently have the basics. Combat. Sailing. Fishing. Islands. Cannons. Weapons. etc.
- Ever since 1.3.3 players have been getting more grumpy
- 1.3.4 Rolls around and players assumed incorrectly that the next update would "hopefully fix what went wrong in 1.3.3 patch that caused the land combat lag" (Since there was no real announcement from staff or communication as to why that did happen in 1.3.3). So naturally players go to forums acting entitled, complaining about the Muertos Moon feature even though it was a original feature (Probably driven to that point due to lack of communication and playing land combat under lag, and their own assumptions)
- Day before 1.3.4 is over and a big majority of players are getting annoyed due to no actual answers because they have no actual patience so they continue to complain about Murteos Moon event moreso then they normally would. 15 Minutes until Update message rolls around ingame today and they were excited because they figured it was something major or something with substance that they could grasp onto.
- 1.3.5 Rolls around and from what I can tell so far its pretty much to add a redeemable code and to remove the Friday the 13th events. No refinements to sailing AI. No fixing stuck player ships/fishing boat issue. No fixing Foulberto. No fixing Land Combat FPS issue. No fixing the occasional land compass derp/sailing compass not working at all. No fixing every other bug pertaining to the core gameplay
The reason why the players tolerance is very low and why they keep complaining so much is more then likely because no one knows whats going on with the staff or the developers, no one knows what the plans are, no one knows what the upcoming plans are, no one knows your priority list, no one knows the content of the update until two days after. Players then start to assume, which leads them to be let down, and it begins to make people entitled and expectant. Which is definitely what you don't want since all of this is being done for free to begin withSo at this point we really really really really need more communication and word on whats going to happen and what has happened so far if we are going to keep the players from losing their minds. I personally don't care either way and fully respect the staff and all that they do but by now 70% don't share my views.
