“Rip and Tear” you shall
Please, don't give up hope!
Put it this way, the DLC’s are only 4 to 6 bucks. Lets say only half the community buys one of the $6 ones. Comes out to $30k. Cut those profits in 3 pieces. Part goes to Sony, Part goes to Disney, Rest goes to Illfonic. $10k.
Do you know How expensive it is to to pay for programmers, to pay to keep servers going, to pay all your employees, how expensive it is to keep software updated? Especially on a massive scale. One DLC, if half buy it, only covers basically till the next one.
So, no it isn’t a endless supply of chopped up DLC Scheme. It’s literally what helps keep content coming. Chasing off players does not make it better. and $4-$6 for a DLC isn’t shit. They are being quite generous considering the months and countless hours they put into making it.
You have companies that charge you $30-$60 per DLC and literally barely dish out any content. So, considering how cheap they give it out when they could easily charge way more, you should least be grateful for that.
Again not saying they are perfect. They are still relatively new to the gaming industry, but doing fairly well compared to a good few other indie companies. And damn better than the people who made Cyberpunk and they are AAA.
Programming is way harder than you think and not always can they expect it to work as planned. There are times everything in theory should work, then a bug happens due to one number in a program being off or one thing they added doesn’t jive well with another program that’s already in the game and it causes a bug.
It also takes a while to find out what causes the bug in game, what causes the bug in the programming, how to fix the bug in the programming, and so on.
Shit, for everyone that complains about every DLC and $6 being so terrible and making them money hungry I would charge them $12 or $13.

Basically yes. They made the 4v1 game as advertised, not including the people requesting a plethora of features. Also have to be able to reliably replicate a bug in order to fix it but we do know they have a QA team.
If they were actually money hungry lootboxes would’ve been monetized a long time ago, yet these are free and farmable and you get free weapons every month.
Nothing nickle and dimey about $5 dlc that goes free the next month lol.

Have they been? I haven’t seen anything in the news section of these forums. That is where I get all of my info on this game.
Oh, my man, don’t rely on the forums for Illfonic info. Follow their Twitter or Facebook. Much as I’d like for them to use the forums for other announcements, they really don’t other than patch notes

Na I’ve given up
I like the community though
Lol you really expect them to change their way of dealing with the playerbase after all this time? Ha! Hilarious.
Well if the begging involves handing them more money? 🙄 it boggles my mind why after everything , people would be willing to throw more money at them for this performance? Thats a red flag in my book . Its rewarding them for a poor job , if a plumber does a shit job on my bathroom ? The last thing getting thrown his way is cash
I still think they can redeem themselves. But this is their last chance. They fuck up here and it’s over. But I’m hoping they won’t
Redeem and prove themselves , I can get behind , but only achieving that through getting more money from the people who have been here waiting ? They can go fuck themselves.
Respect and trust is earned
they should charge people for bugfix period! PC players will not have to because there are none.
PS players should pay extra surcharge and extra over charge with additional super charge.
