McGimp

This isnt a court of law it's a court of public opinion. This thread is going places.

Maybe it would help if the devs added a mini game players could trigger to apply a buff, everytime a new predator spawns. Game needs more of those engaging reload minigames. High octane gameplay!!

okay bud. The game being unfriendly to solo players is TOTALLY the only issue here. Youre completely right. As to the negative review remark.. reviews only have value if there is some sort of dichotomy. What good would they be if people could only see the positive aspects of a game, especially when there are so few positive things to talk about with *some* games. And for the record, whether players who are unhappy with this game are good or bad for the gaming industry is irrelevant. We are here, we arent going anywhere, developers need to adapt or watch as their profits find their way to another game. As far as i see it, i ahvent been unreasonable with my complaints, i havent been aggressive or unfair with my critiques. The devs arent children and i wont speak to them as if they are. When i feel they have screwed up i am going to call them out i refuse to pander to what you feel is their delicate ego. If they dont want to be called out they should probably start listening to the community("toxic" or not) and stop condemning them.

They mentioned a few times in the QA that they wouldnt comprimise their, “vision of the game”. If what ive seen so far is a reflection of that vision, im guess based on the reception of the majority of player - this game is doomed to fail. its a shame, the devs im sure are working very hard on this game. If only they would be a bit more open minded with player feedback.

The devs dont yet seem to realize - they can release as much “content” as they like. Good or bad doesnt matter, every issue with it will be amplified do to the core mechanics of the game feeling like dog shit. Fix the little things. Make logging in something to look forward to. Make the basics of the game fun and rewarding and stop putting out “content” that only large groups of end game players can attempt to enjoy.(and even that ends up being a corpse run zerg fest). Get back to basics devs. Combat is clunky, ai is busted and tedious(whether it be npc friendlies or pred/alphas). Fix the balance, no one likes dying 40 times a play session just to complete one task. And no matter what you log on to do, thats the experience for the majority.

Yes, those of us too simple minded to realize the true genius of this gaming masterpiece. We should be thankful the devs even deigned to grace us lowly simpletons with the opportunity to give them money for this game. shame on us really guys. Shame.. shame..

Sure, me and the other 75% of players who have quit i guess. Once i quit its not a problem for me any longer. Still a problem for the game though. As the player numbers keep ticing down. But hey, maybe its part of the devs “vision for the game” to create something undesirable to the majority of players who try it. how is ultima online doing these days by the way?

Walt disney didnt have the imagination that is needed to make this game enjoyable.

They just happen to be doing things that favor BB and are detrimental to anyone opposing BB. Makes sense, im sure people are just paranoid or delusional on a mass scale. Yep, everything is just fine.. nothing to see here.

But towards what destination.. who knows. Theyre moving in a thousand different directions but cant seem to get anywhere desirable to the masses. Keep moving though i guess, maybe youll stumble into something successful.

Given the games track record thus far, its a safe assumption lol. They did there best to make the game enjoyable for megas, while casting solo and small group balance on the back burner. We are now seeing in real time why that was a mistake.

The game is dead. They spent too much time making changes to keep megas interested. While completely ignoring small group and solo players. Now we see the result of that ill advised development decision. And thats setting aside all kf tbe hacking and exploits. Which would be more forgivable if the game was fun. gg atlas, gg.

Stop...

Man, youre way off base on almost every point other than the fire arrow issue. Which is just a side effect of some bigger problems with the game. Given your diagnosis of this games ails, ive got just one question. Do you work in game development? Because that would make a lot of sense.

People cant be convinced to do something they werent already willing to do, or thinking of doing. You give him too much credit, no one on these forums has the power to cause someone who enjoys the game to quit over a comment.

Its not hard, its boring. And the numbers reflect that. Its not hard, its tedious. And the numbers reflect that. The constant stream of complaints directed at this game can be almost entirely attributed to how punishing every mechanic and function in this game is, without any reward most of the time mind you. If the goal is to make a game for the very small number of players who enjoy having a second job to log in to when they get off work, then theyre doing a stellar job. They may have over done it with the 40k player servers though.

In what way is he fucking it up for anyone else?

Okay then dude.

He hyperbolizes peoples arguments and poses it back to them in the form of a question. Thats trolling 101. example: So, you think anyone who disagrees with you is a troll? Followed up with some nonsense double speak and possibly an insult. He also contradicts himself, not is seperate threads but in the same statement. Maybe he isnt a troll, my gut says he is.

He is a troll. No point engaging with him. So yes, i say to him - Stop...

I havent played this game in two weeks brother. Trash i may be. But this is a forum deicated to discussing Atlas, not McGimp.

Then melee needs to be fixed. Given that its an issue, not only with Melee itself, clunky, slow, no defensible enough. But also an issue with the npc AI and the absolute shit physics in this game. My guess is it will be months if not years before melee is viable.

Have you ever actually eaten a meal in real life? If you eat two steaks in one sitting, you die AND if you dont eat fish every 6 hours...dead. Have you ever Fired a cannon in real life? The cannon balls just magically appear in the cannon after every shot. Have you ever sailed on a raft in real life? Have you ever fought a 30 foot croc in real life? A ghost ship? A SoD? Come on man.. realism is sacrificed all the time for improved game play.

The problem isnt TTK alone, it is also the players participation in that kill. Being that melee is a shambles in this game and will be until the physics and AI are completely overhauled, the best way to keep players engaged in a fight isnt a 15 second minigame between every fight.

Stop...
