Last chance IllFonic

Better to tell people you can’t do something than say “Haha wow interesting, why don’t you post it in the feedback section” for the 9293848th time.
It’s not bad PR, its just a matter of not intentionally misleading your audience.

no ones asking for weekly dev blogs.

It’s better than admitting that you are incompetent or that you don’t care. Silence has an aura of mistery and gives some hope, as they actually do fix certain things.

I would take admitting incompetence over lying indefinitely. Maybe i’m just used to the way games used to be made before the hardcore corporatization.

You can look at any early access or kickstarter and see that people prefer transparency to set their expectations instead of scammy PR bullshit.
Hell look at cyberpunk or NMS, should they have kept up the facade?

Cyberpunk is not a dlc based game. I think the situation is different in that respect.

With cyberpunk you’d get refunds right away, while PHG keeps milking it

Literally as long as they say their working on it, and actually are, that’s enough until they fix it.
Half the time though just seems like it all gets ignored.

Poor @REYNOSO_FUA11 will never hear again.
Btw the audio bug isnt Just on excavation.

It was supposed to have multiplayer.
January, this year lol. Remember?

In fact they were planning on putting out scrapped content that didn’t make it into the launch build as DLC and additional zones but it appears to have fallen on its face unless thats still happening.

What if they are not working in certain bugs cause they are not priority or whatever other reason?

WHAT?!!!

Kass finally gave me an answer regarding the audio bug which is more than any of the other mods can say. Essentially they can’t recreate the bug on PS4 but they’re still working on it. This little bit of info is more useful than staying completely silent for a year and a fucking half or just non stop forgetting that it started on PS4 and not the PS5.

Godspeed.

We diffrer on our outlook at this. Would’ve interesting to hear from an actual PR person what’s the better option.

PR people aren’t people

Ok, a PR AI or sheep

There could be a possibility of continuous fail bug reports that lack details and references that would cause Illfonic (PHG Team) not to have priority with existing issues due to moving forward with content, it could also be a possiblity that with better quality bug reports there could be better quality bug fixes, feedback is beyond the call of duty but you would rather put extra effort into demonizing something rather pointing out specific details you’re frustrated about

Still goes back to o communication. They could tell us which bugs are being worked on and which can’t be replicated or are unclear.

I’ll just say that I answer everything I possibly can. I’ve been making a big push for transparency with you guys, the only issue is that whenever we make a statement about PHG, we have to go through approvals internally, with the publisher, and with the ip holder. Unfortunately not everything makes it through the pipeline.
