    The only thing that they seem to be working on is cosmetics for the shop while sticking everything else on the back burner. Nearly everything that was announced as coming is now on hold with the only thing that we know of coming is cosmetics that they can sell to get money.


    Anyone else feel this is coming to be ?


    And no this isn't a the game is dying as much as a this game is going on hold.

  2. They are definitely moving at a snails pace now(not that they were necessarily screaming fast before).

    I mean...he mentioned getting animations done for the Elites being another 3 months out? They've been working on Term Equivs for even LONGER than Elites were mentioned to be a focus and those animations aren't finished.

    They also basically said they don't really know what exactly they want to even DO with elites for special abilities/weaponry.

    Saddening for sure but whatever I guess, I'm still having fun for now. Time flies when you're having fun at least.
  3. Puzzling and disappointing.

    The pace is certainly glacial for something that was a "flipped switch" launch to continue adding the tons of stuff to the game.

    Copy from other thread: Terminators effectively postponed to 2018 (lol?) for now? The cycle continues. A few short months ago: "Here's what we are working on... terminators. No wait, a big tank map. No, that's on hold now. Now it's elites." We will see any of this stuff? o_O

    I like how they dont even hide the fact that they have a barebones team anymore. When someone asks on the twitch stream if something is being done, they are like yeah Noah is working on it. Im just sitting here like .....wait, do you guys only have 1 developer? I thought Noah was the lead designer who had a team working under him. Is the only one there? If they actually had a team working for Noah, he wouldnt say Im doing it, or Im working on it, or I did this, he would say they are working on it, or we are doing it, or we did this.

    I think bE's staff literally consists of Noah, Katie, Nathan, Mathieu, that stats guy who posts once a year, the composer guy who was on todays twitch and then maybe 4 or 5 other short term contractors who will leave once their project/contract is over. The rest of the work, it seems to be done by outside companies that they buy services from (like the voice acting, the modeling of weapons etc.) Theres probably less than 10 people in the bE office working on EC right now. Thats like super barebones
