Crowdfunding / kickstarter ressurection of EC

?

Would you spend additional money on a potential crowdfunding for EC?

  1. I would

  2. I might consider it, depending on how serious/impactful the additons are

  3. No, i would not

Results are only viewable after voting.
  1. -Only if ALL of the undelivered unique, exclusive items that Founders originally paid for finally get delivered.
    -Only if the aesthetics system is 100% totally overhauled. Current aesthetic options aren’t even scratching the surface of what GW and 40k has to offer.
    -Vehicle loadouts. Tracks, suspension, ammo type, main gun, extra armor, extra ammo, faster reload, longer range, acceleration or faster top speed, various turret traverse rates. There are hundreds if not thousands of potential customization options not being tapped into.
    -Vehicle skins.
    - “Pay to look cool” meaning just that. The forced, unwanted aesthetics that we see in EC is a broken and outdated concept. Gold and silver trim on our armor being forced is unacceptable.
    -Only if we truly see a virtual, semi open world environment with territory, resources, factories, fortresses exchanging hands.
    -World zones that are virtual territories that can be traveled from zone to zone like Planetside.
    -Only if the toxic state of community forums and the toxic in game behavior and all of the types of griefing stops. Dehumanizing someone because you simply disagree with them shouldn’t happen in any community. Certain guilds Tking individuals an entire match just because they can. Some guilds votekicking individuals they just don’t like just because they can. Only if all of this trashy, repulsive behavior is once and for all directly addressed by Behavior Interactive and properly policed. We report this stuff for years yet nothing gets done and the unacceptable behavior never changes.
    -Game modes and level design that properly represent aspects and recognizable events from the 40k universe. Count down timers in every single game mode we have now that count down to nothing is cheap and heartless game design.
    -squad leaders and inner squad synergy between the classes having the kind of impact that you’d expect to see a squad leader and squads to have in a 40k game.
    -squad leader/Sergeants/Veteran Sergeants as a playable end game class with special war gear, equipment and abilities designed to help the squad get around the battlefield and or assist the squad in taking or defending objectives
    -use the codices guys! There are a billion and one concepts for Faction specific, squad leader specific, and class specific special abilities.
    -total overhaul of the melee system for all classes.
    -stop vehicle griefing once and for all. This is lazy game development. Random Bozos stealing a squads vehicle and intentionally destroying those vehicles is unacceptable. Battlefield V is finally making their vehicle system “squad only” and vehicle access tied to the player that takes the time and effort to spawn the vehicle.
    -a complete overhaul or just totally scrapping the current Elite, Hero concept. All of the Heroes are just bad and a waste of a spawn. Elites should ONLY be available via requisition via in game currency or reputation that’s gained via game time. More than one life per elite for sure. Heroes should be Terminators, Captains, Terminator Captains, Warbosses, Warboss retinue, Dreadnaughts, etc. all Heroes Avail via Requisition or similar to how vehicles and Hero units work in Battlefield games. The only thing paid as far as Hero and Elites should be special skins for the Elites. The only way we spawn Elites should be by requisition that’s paid for by in game currency. This currency or reputation we would earn should ONLY be earned via time played. No PTW.

    The devs have a half-finished project JUST LIKE THAT lying around. Nathan showed it in the last or second-to-last Twitch. But Jbregg thinks that making yet another map will finally do the trick.

    Miguel called. He wants his ridiculous, unrealistic, overly ambitious vision for EC back.

    I have personally come to the conclusion that the devs CANNOT implement complicated game-modes, because that would require underlying changes in the code that were never taken into account in the beginning. Mission-style game-modes would require a massive overhaul of the code.

    Abilities also requires parameters in the code that represent these abilities. Anything more complicated than what we currently have, with auras and spells influencing character-stats, would require some serious coding that takes time and money.

    The time for such massive changes is in Alpha.

    That would be one of the best ways to bring EC back... If EC had devs who could make characters. It took them AGES to just deliver the four Elites they had originally promised. (And even then they switched the Eldar Ranger for something else.) When did the fourth one come out? Spring 2018?

    Not only does MWO have better maps thanEC, but have you seen the maps of the upcoming MW5? They are GORGEOUS! The maps of EC are absolute shit compared to that.

    Just imagine a WH40k-game with the technology and game-features of MWO but the looks of WH40k.
    * NPC-dropships that fly and shoot
    * combat-drops onto the battlefield
    * NPC-turrets
    * a siege-mode more complex than throwing bodies at the wall
    * fog, rain, sandstorms
    * rivers and lakes
    * biomes of every shade

    ohhhhhhhh fucking hell i loved those, they were long yeah BUT WE WANTED THEM LONG!

    I'm going to say no. I took a long break and poked my head back in from time to time but it's been pretty obvious that EC is a dead/dying game with no real future. I had more fun discussing things on the forums than I ever did actually playing, zero confidence in these developers. I'd rather my money to go a new game that isn't anything near behaviour.

    What is crowdfunding ?


    Its where people with Low intellectual capabilities spend 100o's of money's on snake oil products and vaporware.

    My all time favorites include a device that extracts water out of thin air.
    And a device that supposedly filters out water molecules and lets air through so you can breath underwater

    Got to love kickstarter for its shenanigans.

  11. This game is an amalgamation from both a bloated mismanaged game design and misconceived notions of what 40K is. They don't deserve your money, this game is a zombie that will only eat your money and shambel around in ignorance. The only language they understand is money so do not give them none of yours. In this age of game developers who shit out substandard prompt upp abortion products, bE in just more of the same. Let this game die and be forgotten and bE go bankrupt. They promised us a game and gave us a polished feces. Take Fortnite and stip it of features and slap a 40K theme on it and that is the essence of what Eternal Crusade is.

    I gave them my money hope and imagination and they failed. I am a angry white straight male and i am DISAPPOINTED!!!!! :)

    And to all those who defend them, you are a dying breed of circle jerkers who loves the sound and smell of your own farts.

    This game is not salvageable. There are no further avenues of evolution to expand this game.

    - We have Space Marines without Codex Astartes, geneseed, brotherhood and all that stuff. We have Chaos Space Marines without Chaos. We have Orkz without Waaagh, without Oddboyz, without Nobz, without any cultural traits that make Orkz orky. We have Eldar without scheming and without prophecy. (Yet more evidence that the devs just muddled along and never had a long-term plan for this game.)
    And those things cannot be added NOW because that would alter the whole metagame from bottom to top.

    - Terminators cannot be added because they would break the class-balancing.

    - Bikes cannot be added because that would make a redesign of every single map necessary.

    - Walkers cannot be added because that would break the vehicle-meta.

    - Scouts/Imperial Guard and all that stuff cannot be added because they would break the class-balancing.

    - Flyers cannot be added because that would make a redesign of every single map necessary.

    - Larger maps? Not possible because TTK is so short and you need spawn-points everywhere.

    - Large-scale tank-battles? Well, the devs balanced the game to make tanks rarer.



    The only future game-content that realistically still is achievable is cosmetics. And who would crowdfund that.
