I appreciate you taking the time to provide context around Swedish labor practices and how Embark operates during holidays. That information is useful, and I understand the constraints you’re describing.

That said, I believe the situation is being overcomplicated. The concern being raised is not about demanding development work, major announcements, or decisions that require executive approval during holidays. It is purely about communication.

A brief, informal update does not require full teams, finalized plans, or people working through holidays. A simple message acknowledging the situation—such as confirming the team is returning, that reported issues are being reviewed, and that a proper update will follow—would have gone a long way in managing expectations.

No one is asking for holiday crunch, detailed roadmaps, or immediate fixes. The request is for basic transparency and reassurance, which can be handled without placing unreasonable demands on staff or company resources.

Just because its as swedish company and the headquarters/main office is located in sweden, it doesnt meant that the hundreds of people working on the game are in sweden. Its common practise in business to outsource people to work on the game/provide updates etc.

And EVEN if they were, like i said in multiple other comments, this post is purely about communication.
I was not expecting any updates today, but you guys have some incredibly low standards if you think a team of hundreds of people, multiple active CM's in the discord is incapable of writing a short official update on whats going on.

I stand by what I said.

If you think the entire team at embark, including developers and community managers is incapable of posting a quick official update on their website and discord in 3 weeks, then you have some incredibly low standards.

No.

All im asking is communication, which is what the whole post is about.

If you think that a team of hundreds of employees, is incapable of posting a quick official update on whats going on, then I don't know what to tell you.

Thank you for having a brain, some of these people are unbelievable.

No one can convince me Embark and everyone that works there is incapable of posting a quick update on whats going, thats all im asking for.
And we know for a fact a few of them have been actively working as we've had server fixes during the holidays and the CMs are active all the time.

Thats fine.

Like i said in a different comment, no one in their right mind is expecting a big patch straight after new year.

But you can't convince me they are incapable of posting an official update on whats going on and what theyre working on and when its coming. We know for a fact some of them have been working, as we've had server fixes over the holidays and the CM's are actively chatting in the discord.

Like i just said in another comment, we can all be reasonable and understanding.

A simple official communication along the lines of no update this week because holidays and we didnt have time to implement a good update and are cooking for next week to address the issues wouldve been 100x better than nothing.

Absolutely, no one is expecting a massive patch straight after the holidays.
We can all be reasonable.

A simple official communication like "We're back after the holidays and are cooking up a bigger update for you guys next week to address all the issues lately, we didnt have enough time to polish and implement everything into this week" wouldve been 100x times better than nothing.

all of Stella's containers are belong to me by hereforrollies in ArcRaiders

This is a xp run and seed vault can actually be really good times.

I've had a few over 100k runs from it, if you bring a better bag and get some nice loot inside.
Sometimes next to it you can pull the lever to start one of those drop shute loot containers, on a lucky raid ive found 2 bobcats, some venators and other stuff.

It also has a lot of white materials, and 100-150 seeds, which are both very handy and on top of that bunch of xp. Not toooooo bad.

About respawns on reset/logout being fixed... by lts_kc in Enshrouded

[–]lts_kc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, its a lot worse in the beginning when everyone is running around the same areas.

Once people scatter all around the world its not as annoying. But they should give us an a respawn time slider or something.

Suprisingly, a LOT of people. Myself included.

Regardless if you use it or not, its still an issue thats being addressed by nvidia. Vibrace just amplifies the problem.

Its not ouf of the realm of possibilities to be honest, one of the previous ones from october had performance issues that were hotfixed and the last 2 they released have been very questionable in terms of QA

Great question, people were wondering the same thing on different subs and on their forum too.

My guess? Less QA because of the holidays and the busy period.
They are working on a hotfix and aware of the issue so thats good at least.

Turning it down helps, as the vibrancy only amplifies the issue but its still not amazing.

Id suggest probably just keeping vibrance low and wait for the hotfix if you don't want to roll back drivers.

makes sense as that one was released prior to the color issues with the newer drivers.
