Something is ending but does something begin?

Who cares? Leo hasn't been into this community for months judging by every time he posted, "DURRR COMMUNITY IS DED, GAME IS DED."

You'd think he'd try to mend the community instead of posting a thread about hating the game and the community once a month.

 

I'm not talking about the "consistency fixes" he did a while back, I'm talking about fixing KAG in general, everything he thinks is wrong with it. You're talking like you're defending him without reading any post.
If you don't know what you're talking about don't talk, you're goddamn annoying

 

so i do not know what i am talking about because i think it is the developers jobs to fix the game and not a tester. I am grateful for what he did period; whether it be consitency fixes, or all the inventory re-working he has done. He seems to want the api fixed(as im sure alot of server hosters do) and your response is "why dont you do it they'll probally pay you". That is not the point; people, like leo, have been wanting the api fixed for months. I didnt understand how hard it would be to do it til asumagic explained it(like other things), but that doesnt mean im wrong for still wanting it fixed. It doesnt mean i dont know what i am talking about when i ask for a feature to be fixed. Anyway, skepticism about the importance of mechanisms, over bug fixes, does not merit a "if you dont like it why dont you fix it".The point being made is that the api shouldve been fixed before mechanicism, and that is a valid stance. I honestly do not care about any of this, because it doesnt really affect me, but it annoys me that you are putting the blame on the customer(fuzzle) and not the manufacturer(developers).

 

I had an update ready. I had rewritten almost every script to perfection, with a changelog of nearly 20 pages. Problem is, I've become demotivated AF at the worst possible time. I had exams so I had to leave the shizz' for a while. In the meantime Verz and Leo left. BD's gone. My connection is shizzly AF, and BD was the only server where I didn't get insta-banned. The competitive scene is dead. Then there's the boulder "fix", the slash animation, the drowning shizz', and now trap blocks with door-functionality? Wtf.

 

"BD was the only server where I didn't get insta-banned."

You might wanna look into that, that's probably more telling of you and how you act in game than how the servers on KAG are shit.

 

thebonesauce, I solely stated my reasons for being demotivated.
I never called the other servers "shit".

Okay you two if you can't keep it down in public then move to a pm to bitch at each other, nobody wants to see you two getting this worked up over stuff. Gonna hand out infractions very strictly from this post on.

 

You can hand out an infraction if you like, just sayin' that dude shouldn't act like he's entitled to say what he feels like.

 

>freedom of speech

 

Well sure. Just as he has the freedom to say stupid shit, I have the freedom to tell him he's stupid for said stupid shit.

No matter, I won't keep generating an argument.

 

That's why you should just make KAG 2 after Trench Run and fix and improve everything that's not working in the current game

 

Too late: Chivalry

 

If you wish fixing everything etc etc and optimizing everything, they'd rather make yet another new engine (as it happened with Beta) and this would take months and I'm ready to bet the community would have left already.

Supporting a game for 3 years is quite good for an indie studio having other projects, imho. I never did regret those 10€ I did put in this game, since I've played it for around 1000 hours, most likely more. Let's hope THD creates up some new creative and nice games; and they're quite on the way.

 

Be grateful for the developers for what they have done for you. They made a great game that we have all at some point enjoyed. They're not entitled to keep up KAG updates this long after release, as already said, 3 years is pretty good for an indie game. The game is essentially founded on faulty hardware that essentially cannot be fixed. THEY CAN'T HELP THIS. So would everyone stop complaining about it. They've done what they can with what they have and they can't make it better without breaking everything else. I get that lots of people may be ignorant of this, and thus bash the devs for their perceived laziness and stupidity, but I hope that you get it now. Instead of saying "Fix this", ask "Can you fix this?" or "Why hasn't this been fixed?". It's called manners.
I'd love to see KAG2 with a completely optimized rewrite on a better engine, and that quite frankly is the only way to 'fix' KAG, to rebuild it. But I understand that that's not necessarily a direction the devs want to take. They probably want to move on to different things, especially after all the negative experiences with KAG (eg. this thread).


"Dead game is dead"
Ok. So what? All games die. We had our fun while it lasted.

 

(no, this only did happen once or more, the problem is the shitty api client code)

They can but it'd be too long for nothing, and I understand them. Hey guys there, if you're coding in C++ you can rewrite it yourself and submit it to Geti. Suddenly, no one is left, right?

They already did this with Beta, I doubt they wish to do that again.

 

The issue is with the API, which is a software issue that can be fixed, albeit with quite a bit of work.

KAG is not dead, nor is it dying because someone posted a thread about the game dying after some guy shut his servers down due to an annoying bug. We've stuck around this long; I think you'll find that most of us will continue to stick around for a good bit longer.

 

Sorry for the misunderstanding and thanks for clearing it up. Not too familiar with coding etc. so please forgive me. Still, my general points stand. It's essentially unfixable (would take too long) and more importantly it's not going to be fixed, and complaining won't fix that fact.

I 100000% agree.
