OH YES!

i think folks just get frustrated with new developments taking so long. i'm sure fizzer and mercer are also in that boat but there is not much they can do about it except following the roadmap and hoping the game grows enough to be able to support hiring more developers.

regarding what knyte said specifically about open sourcing: i'm a strong advocate of open source, but it takes real commitment to make an open source project successful and it's a different way of developing a project, i don't think it fits what fizzer wants to do for warlight.

"Partial history : see what only one player could see" !!

awesome

(...) we know the clan system needs attention. But fixes to a system that might be replaced are not productive.

Correct me if I get something wrong, but should I conclude, that clan system will be completely replaced ?
Because in my opinion it doesn't work now at all.

Might be.

EDIT: I made this reply without realizing I was still on the first page! So I missed the whole second page of replies. So my comment probably isn't so relevant. I'll keep the text here anyway though.

I actually think knyte has some great points, if you step away from the details and look at the big picture. Fizzer has prioritized new features over maintenance and usability.

My personal main complaint: Fizzer's communication with the community with respect to development has been rather poor. Uservoice is a broken system: it's so annoying from a user's perspective that I gave up using it. The 2v2 ladder was ruined thanks to a hamfisted poll and implementation done in such a way that EVERYONE got pissed off, even the people who wanted the change. That Warzone fiasco (which Fizzer seems to have thankfully quietly backpedaled on). These were things that were *obvious* from a community perspective but somehow Fizzer doesn't realize these things?

When giving criticism it's easy to be overly negative, and I do apologize for doing this, I tend to do it in all aspects in my life really. :x But knyte isn't just being negative, he's offering tangible solutions. He's obviously being negative out of love for Warlight. And as a fellow developer I know how utterly frustrating it is when you *know* things could be so much better but there's nothing you can to do help fix it.

I don't think I really have a point, other than... don't dismiss someone's opinions just because they're negative. knyte has lots of great ideas.
