But maybe your dev team ideology is wrong, if so many people here against it? Personally I liked this mod because it was casual and relaxing. If I would wanted challenging gameplay there are a lot of other M&B mods and other games. I wouldn't really say there is an active ideology in the development team. We have a general game direction that we try to stick to, but we constantly view matters in an objective way. The majority of things you have listed are "problems" that I think hardly a majority agrees with. I think it is hilarious that there are a few individuals that want separate servers to be setup for their kiting goals, when they have never helped out by donating. As for all the servers; they are public and will remain public. Late joiners will always be part of the public server experience. I think you wouldn't want to be locked out of a server because you just launched the game for the first time of the day and are in for a casual run. As for the leechers; the majority of time someone is available, who can be summoned by reporting someone in game, to intervene in a matter. I can't see how infantry is overpowered. I think they are the most vulnerable class, seeing how their way of killing relies on close combat, which increases the chance of getting overwhelmed. I gave Infantry extra health to increase their survivalability, therefor being able to get some kills as well, rather then holding back and picking up a ranged weapon. The Boorish Commoner was a request by a donator, seeing how it was added to only normal mode I don't think it can cause a negative impact on the gameplay. If you happen to find a map where a scene prop causes a negative effect on the gameplay you can report it on this board; https://forum.nordinvasion.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=92 Please do keep common sense in mind when reporting a bug. We have released a couple of updates where trees blocked the visibility of players. I don't get it why the healthbar script would be such a great addition. Seeing that I think I finally managed to break it, I see no reason to implement it in game. While I do appreciate the effort of making a list of what you think is wrong with the game, I highly doubt we are able to do much with your requests sadly.

Killing Floor 2 was brought up as an example of co-op games where the rewards were purely cosmetic and did not affect any stats. I have only played it for 4 hours so I won't be able to confirm that it is indeed a brain afking game. The four hours I played I found the game very challenging.

We have a general game direction that we try to stick to, but we constantly view matters in an objective way. The goal is to make a good game, not good code behind it. Commercial successful and popular software has horrible code mess behind it more often then you think. Good game for majority. So as you proposed, make a polls on arguable matters like healthbar script and implement majority decision. Trees on Hell and Castleyard, holes in stairs on Bastion and Sw. Outskirts (stairs and wall at last corner nearby usual cading spot). Everyone who played this game long enough knows these spots, not standing at stairs on Bastion and placing extra walls to close gaps on Outskirts. Commoner is out of design context in Normal mode. He would fit into beginner along with housewives and such. He just feels like unnatural addition now, normal supposed to be serious. Infantry in NI has 2 roles: shielding and slashing. Implementing extra HP and forcing infantry to walk for kills is bad thing, because they block shooting and slow run down. The game goal is to kill Odin, not to get more kills. Game design should encourage teamplay, not frag contest. Somehow you think public server experience should be horrible. Late joiners problem exists and there should be compromise solution good for majority. Maybe poll only on wave 12 hard and 9 and 12 rag, and free for everyone on every other wave. You can't pretend this problem does not exist. Reason to have script is providing equal game opportunity for everyone. Until quests in the game focused on Boss lasthits the script is needed. Don't pretend it's equal opportunities now. Just believe me, guy with Cursed Deadshot has it. I would like to have public discussion on every game change. Game is dead because it was developing without touch of community for a long time. If your personal game experience is nice it doesn't mean everyone else feels the same. There are a lot of playstyles and some people have problems you don't have (like trees). So just ask community more often on these matters.

However the development will always have the final saying in matters. Think about the following: If we let the community decide about everything; Would the lootchance not be at 100%? (seeing how many people would love to loot something) Would stats of certain weapons be way too overpowered?

I think I have played long enough and yet still have no clue where these spots are. I would like to once again refer to the scene board in the help section if you would like to see them fixed.

He just feels like unnatural addition now, normal supposed to be serious. There are multiple half naked enemies that spawn in normal mode, would those be out of context as well? Or is it because beer is thrown.. either way it's still a game, it doesn't have to reflect reality (29-12-2018, 01:22 PM)Forward Wrote: Infantry in NI has 2 roles: shielding and slashing.

Game design should encourage teamplay, not frag contest. It's funny how you are all about forcing the development team to listen to the community, but when it comes to infantry they have to be forced to follow a directed play style. The purpose of infantry is infantry. People can play the character as they wish and should not be limited in their way of doing so. Oh and your game design should encourage teamplay statement is a bit odd when you are all against a support system that forces more teamplay on the players.

Adding a script will make this only worse as players with a Cursed Dead Shot can tell exactly when they should land the last shot.

If people are still playing the game is far from dead. I would like to ask you to be less negative and to have a bit more understanding that your own gameplay differs from a lot of others.

We usually hold an internal poll when it comes to some decisions. However the development will always have the final saying in matters. Think about the following: If we let the community decide about everything; Would the lootchance not be at 100%? (seeing how many people would love to loot something) Would stats of certain weapons be way too overpowered?" I think if you made it you need x things to vote. Don't think it wouls be that bad... Some stuff the community would go a bit over board with stats wise but saying stuff would be 100% from a poll from big group is ridiculous. "If people are still playing the game is far from dead. I would like to ask you to be less negative and to have a bit more understanding that your own gameplay differs from a lot of others." Something may not be dead but saying something is slowly dying or heading there is different.

If I remember right
There was a poll posted before the support overhaul I think it was 80-90% wanted a support overhaul and most of those who did not where part of the admin team (29-12-2018, 03:36 PM)Sir Baron Wrote: If I remember right That doesn't state we would be happy with this outcome when we had no knowledge of it would be.

Old system worked 6 years, no issues, I bet this mod will be played more if people wouldnt wipe every 2 times cause noone like the current system or undertands it... i mean, its good if u implement new stuff, but there was obv no reason to change it.. and u see the shitstorm now.
