Agreed, they have made promises before and delivered. They said they would focus and improve upon the melee system and they have, in fact I think it's one of the best 3rd person shooter MMO's with a comprehensive melee combat system. Sure it needs a few tweaks here and there but so far it's pretty damn impressive. Sure I'm heavily disappointed that we didn't see what we wanted to see, but they have shown a lot of progress today, with the voices, new sub faction additions and a new improvement on the Combat/weapon system so in my eyes it was an okay stream. We're all 40k fans here, we've waited for a 40k MMO and here it is, in the making and we have a hand on making it. So lets be a bit more patient and yell at the developers what's wrong and buggy so they can fix it! And soon we'll have the features we wanted, the more we complain about bugs the more they'll fix and the more they fix the more things they can add into the game smoothly. Right now we are about to have a brand new faction, there will be massive amounts of bugs with that, and then we will have War Parties, then a new massive map and other game modes and such. So let's be patient and keep doing our jobs as the community so they can do theirs, not pout but to complain and suggest.
Voice Acting, Eldar and LSM/CSM Sub-Faction Updates! Highlights for this Stream can be read here. Imperial Fist and Alpha Legion: Some GIFs for the durability system in action:
They also said they will be in before Christmas. Then they said that they will be in February. Then they said that they will be on Founder's server this week. True. They also made a lot of promises that were broken, so this point doesn't hold much. I can easily see where everyone is coming from, after all only Eldar community really cares about Eldar, the rest don't really care much about them. But I hope you will be able to see why I and other members of said community are pissed. So, if devs are reading this, let me get this clear. The time when people wanted concept arts and model sheets was 6 months ago. Now you either show us the Eldar in game, or you just don't show us anything at all. DO NOT hype us for no reason. So if next week you still can't show us them in game, then DO NOT put them on schedule. It's a 40k game, people here are very passionate about their factions. Our faction was delayed multiple times already and we've yet to see a single bit of their gameplay footage. We waited for long and we can wait for more. But when you mention the word "Eldar" in your stream schedule, we get very hyped. Not showing us actual Eldar in the actual game acts as an insult to injury, and leads to this kind of reaction. So please, do not hype us for no reason next time, it's enough that you delayed them multiple times and still can't show a single bit, there is no need to rub it in our faces.
So this stream showed us that we can get anything but new factions textures. You are asking why we are so pissed of? Cause most ppl don't like when somebody give their word and then take it back. Devs don't even say what is ready for now... No release dates, no progress...
No I didn't miss it, but maybe you missed the part that said "basic set of classes" "before christmas", meanwhile months have passed and we didn't really see anything yet. I was expecting Eldar news to explode after the christmas teaser (that's what it was, we didn't really see it in detail). Smart wording or not, saying "hopefully" before a sentence doesn't justify months of postponing for such a major feature everyone has been waiting for. Hopefully we'll see something next week, maybe in summer though, 2017.
Woot! I heard there was Eldar on the stream *Reads thread* We'll that felt familiar. Refund justified. Enjoy battlefield 40k: spez mehrine edition people. I'll check back again in "summer". P.s. like the way they've ended the Founders program whilst there is no trace of anything but mehrines about. Really makes you feel confident about the way Xenos players and their experiences are valued by the Eternal Mehrine team.
Wont lie..that eldar "reveal" was terrible imo. Doodles a reveal does not make. I mean they could have gave us 3d models sitting in UE4 with UV Maps. Just showing all the eldar in texutreless T-pose models would be neat. Instead we get vague doodles lol. I dont think i can handle what they will do for Ork reveal.
They didn't make any promises. At all. They were estimations and hopes. They didn't SAY they WOULD, they said that they would LIKE to. The simple fact is that they weren't ready. You can't put stuff in when they aren't ready. You're holding promises against them, which is rather ironic: Everybody asks for estimated dates when they cannot promise, and when they do, they're immediately blamed for it if it doesn't go our way. Such is why they rarely make promises, even if we ask for "estimations" because then stuff like this happens. Frankly, this is much ado about nothing. We'll get Eldar, if not this coming week next week. How about them voice actors, huh?
You are protecting wrong things. We are waiting Xenos too long and they cant show us ANYTHING. So stop protecting this shit please.
I guess what we see here is ready This is about something else, this is probably some corporate bullcrap behind the scenes. Pretty sure devs would love to show us fruits of their hard work, they're simply not allowed. It's a real shame, but doesn't change the fact that we feel cheated everytime the hype train crashes.
