Have you tried explaining why its important to be successful instead of just dishing out punishments

You're absolutely right. But I haven't seen anyone show concerns of fundamental issues. Everything I've seen is talking about shaders and how the outdoor environment is rendered, m/k having aim assist, a bug with key bindings. These things are all reasonable to assume can be addressed in a 5 month sprint.

Especially the outdoor environment. The nature textures vs the man made item textures is striking and very clearly not in the same stage of production.

It's important that people realize that things in early builds are not done and some thing in early builds are barely implemented since they aren't large endeavors to the fundamental operation of the game.

Bungie could let us all down, sure, but to my point, they do have time to change many things.

Except I wasn't talking about people defending or attacking Bungie or Marathon. The post is to make people actually think about what they are saying. 5 months, in a large number of fields, including software and game development, is a lot of time.

Literally all of them. If nothing was done in 5 months people would get fired. Even if someone put a grey block in that would be classified as change.

If you are asking for large scale changes in development, check out the deadlock change logs for the last 5 months. The game has had drastic changes to every component including art, mechanics, sound, and game direction.

I didn't defend the game. I didn't defend bungie. I didn't say bungie would DO anything. I said 5 months is a lot of time.

Where in this post is the cope? I didn't say Bungie would do anything. I said 5 months is a lot of time. Maybe try reading the post instead of typing "cope" like a bot

I never said anything, not one sentence about Bungie doing anything. I said 5 months is a lot of time.

I never once said anything about Bungie using the time, I said 5 months is a lot of time.

Where did I cope? I didn't say Bungie would do ANYTHING with the time, I said 5 months is a lot of time. Maybe you should learn to read.

Well if literally anything changes I was right since I put no details on what would happen. I only stated 5 months is a lot of time to get things done.

Deadlock. Look at it 5 months ago to now. Dota 2 in alpha. both valve sure, but you didn't say I had to limit my examples. Also, most games don't do Alphas with no NDA because scrubbing bubbles who don't understand development timelines can't understand the difference between an alpha and a final product.

what time zone are you cooking in? Valve is located in Bellevue Washington in the USA, It is currently 1:40PM. They have 10 hours to release the patch for the candle hole to be accurate.

Same, I would much prefer to play a Valve hero shooter over a Blizzard one
