to those of you defending illfonic.

[Fire]

Like I said in another post, the ass kissing needs to stop. Yes, theres no point in wishing death or anything that severe.

But theres also no point in defending them with how bad of a job they’ve done. All the bugs, demo or beta level content, no communication.

This was not sold as a beta.

So if people want to complain, its completely understandable.

You guys who just defend them, are just telling them that it’s ok, not to fix all the bugs, and keep the game in it’s current state, with no new maps or modes.

The pandemic arguement is also irrelevant.
If the pandemic was going to hinder development so badly, then they should just have delayed the game.

Yes, I like the game, but how they’re running it, is pretty shitty.

Hey you leave illfonic alone man. They’re clearly working so hard, day and night, risking their lives so we can get shaders you ungrateful little punk. If you think it’s so easy why don’t you fix the game yourself! 😤

I never say that Illfonic should not fix bugs or to not add anything new. While I also don’t wish any ill will on Illfonic; that doesn’t mean I don’t think they aren’t at least partly at fault for the game’s state. Previous Lack of Communication up to today was very apparent. Not to dog on the new surge of activity, just pointing out the facts of the matter.

Crossplay, Glitches and Lack of Content are still issues, but Illfonic is steadily working on these issues. If this were truly a cash grab as many do say, then they wouldn’t have gone through publishing Patch after Patch after Patch without break, regardless of Pandemic.

I can acknowledge flaws and mistakes while still being supportive of the things that I do like.

[madmardigan]

The backlash today is far more than we have seen since launch. People are sick of being patient. Buying DLC and getting nothing but damn cosmetics in return.

I’ve defended them enough. Now we need content. It’s not enough to keep saying it’s coming. This lack of communication just makes it worse.

Also. Nerf pred, buff FT.

I really do hope they got something planned for August.

Same man. I really do.

@Fire

the ass kisding needs to stop

You hurt my dyslexia. Joking aside… it’s not a beta, this is how modern games are released now. They get released and then they grow. A steady stream of content. (If the players are lucky, some games just linger for months and months before they get anything new.)

illfonic does do a poor job of communication and hype but they’re still learning these things. Screaming and whining is unlikely to teach them faster.

They have a production schedule, releasing a game is very stressful and personally I think them taking a break was a good sign. They must be confident in meeting that schedule.

It’s like I said, some people are going to far with the hate, but I see a lot of people shutting down valid complaints.

[Xenomorph_2099]

You’d think a game like Doom: Eternal, renowned for it’s Single Player Experience and high tension 2v1 Multiplayer would have had tons of Maps and Additions right?

Naw. Just one Balance Change and they haven’t gotten a Story DLC in months. They only got Free Grindable Cosmetics.

[Tykelley06]

I agree 100 percent

[Fire]

Thanks for calling out that spelling xD. My phone goes full retard.

I just feel that people shutting down those with valid complaints ain’t helping. They really arent doing a good job, and same with a lot of other companies. It needs to change.

As for me, I just want this game to succeed.
I really do.

[Fire]

Bug fixes and good balance goes a really long way.
I wish more devs and players understood that.

[Xenomorph_2099]

It does. What I meant by bringing up Doom was that, games can go without additional gameplay content for a good while. I feel like many factors are contributing to the outcry for Content Now, within and without the control of Illfonic.

[WhiteKala78]

You beat me to it fuck!

[WhiteKala78]

Illfonic to its consistent player base

[GrimmReaper]

Or what’s left of it.

Just gonna vent for a moment;

Honestly I just see a lot of bitching for the sake of bitching in this community and for that I can’t take much of the community seriously.

Feedback is important and balancing needs to be addressed but it’s only been two months and some change. Yes the community wants new maps but that isn’t going to happen within two months. Yes the community wants new game modes but that isn’t going to happen within two months. And for that matter the balancing changes and bug fixes are constantly marred by people being unhelpful in finding out what happened and nobody following up on it other than FIX YOUR DAMN GAME ILLFONIC and generally being unhelpful in helping understand and helping solve an issue. It’s really hard to figure out what’s going wrong when feedback is simply “optimize the game” without going into detail why and how. The community is a toxic cesspool that flips its shit at the slightest thing, I can tell why they don’t talk to us.

It just comes across to me as childish, greedy, and impatient because the game only came out on April 24th. We had no reason to think that a new map or game mode was coming in this update nor for the paid DLC and people had been asking for City Hunter. Turns out they deliver and we all screeched in rage because that thing we all knew was coming turns out is coming this month.

And Illfonic is not blameless, they need to speak to the community at some point. The forums need moderators and those to interact with the community. We need someone to not only be our point of contact but someone to reign us in. Because as it stands we’re all just on this forum with basically nothing to go off of aside from twitter which is only marketing and the occasional clarification of an announcement. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the only thing they use these forums for is bug reports and feedback and it’s constantly fucked because the community is a dumpster fire.
