What was all that about making ships and big cakes? (Translated with Q/A from rep)

[Reinheart]

you guys make no sense. The islands are there, FROM RELEASE OF THE GAME. this means 9 MONTHS AGO. yoshidas job is to DEVELOP CONTENT. of course a ship serves no purpose with content that was released 9 months ago, and probably created 12 months or more ago. he was supposed to actually add the content.

Just one thing... I don't think 90% of the community want to see these islands that were already made from release of the game knowing how the current maps are....

Crew 1) Land Ahoy!!
Crew 2) WOOOT
Crew 3) Hey... doesn't that... look like...
Crew 1 & 2) DON'T SAY IT!! IT'S NEW ISLAND!! JUST LOOKS THE SAME!! Just eat the damn cake and shut up!
Crew 4) Wut?
Crew 5) I got a jar of dirt~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRcj6CAhe7s

Funny enough, all of the outlaying islands look exactly the same except one with a "Ancient Library" type of place that you can't interact with.

Now that I've done a quest or two, it appears it's used for blacksmith questline.

9 Months ago and the videos I seen were posted in the last 2-3 months, and still has no content to them. It's not I who makes no sense, it's you who are failing to understand that Yoshida's words are about the current game, not what can and will come.



It is obvious, you're just so hell bent on believing they don't know what to do when the opposite is infact true -- they know what to do, there's just no use for it currently. It is not this hard to understand.

he was supposed to develop content in the 6 months hes been there, people want to know if he has, they are asking him about the future, and his progress on something people saw in development and liked 9 months ago. Since he claims that they have multi teams working on everything and they have different dates, this a viable question. he also says he is waiting on battle to release a lot of his content.

Its doubly talk because people are asking about progress made, and future plans, and he is answering that the game as it was 9 months ago doesnt have a use for it.

people already knew there was no use for ships in game right now, they wanted to know if he made the ships and gave them a use or plans to.

they are mad at his answers because it makes the company look incompetent that they had an idea 9 months ago and have either made no progress, nor figured out how to make progress, and look like they are not really developing content, but merely saying they are, and doing nothing with thier time.

they are justified in that.

its not about whats in the game currently its about what they have developed up to this point, and what they plan to develop in the future

Are yall really saying that because the content is not completely implented as the game stood 9 months ago, that it should not be implemented?

this is circular reasoning

I will not make new content because i dont have new content already developed.

I will not finish developing content that was previously developed because the content is not finished developmentally.

how can you make any new content if the reason you dont make new content is because the game currently doesnt have that content.

why make a ship, if you have no where to go, why make new places to go if you dont have a ship, why design new structures on new places to go, if you cant go to the new places you didnt design, because you dont have a ship.

Are you people really that fooled by marketing double talk?

build the ship
build the islands
build content that happens on the way to the islands.
build the content that happens on the islands
that is your job as a developer.

Stop taking 4 months to figure out what you are supposed to do when it is obvious.

yoshi hasn't finished it because tanaka hadn't started it and he is not smart enough to figure out anything by himself. this is something you could have a group meeting with among your staff and have 500 things these would be used for, but undoubtedly none of these guys have the intelligence of a rock to figure out one of them.

his job is to work on the game and give more things to do. he is failing on that part of his job. if he is not smart enough to figure out how to add things to the game for people to do they should fire the entire group. at this point se is proving they are no longer honorable and fell down to a 3rd tier development team behind the indie companies.

I bet people will be complaining about glitchy content and saying "Soandso's MMO content plays out flawlessly, SE can't even add PvP correctly."

Yoshida's job was to fix the game and unless I've fallen behind in the times (I still play the first MUD I've joined almost 20 years ago, so I highly doubt it) content isn't what will fix what's wrong with this game as the problems goes to even the engine itself, not just the lack of things to do.

implement some content on those islands? why?

we still need some in Coerthas and Mordana

and it's way easier to add something there, If they decide to add something on islands before Coerthas and Mordena.... they're mad

lol explaining fail with more fail, because yeah they have had zones and areas in the game from launch that STILL havent been given any use. In fact they have had most of the "new" resources developed on release. Very little has been added to this game that wasnt there on the day of release, in the files. And they still ahvent even used that up.

and to jennestia statement, the game needs content it was the most highly voted on thing in the poll. battle was number 2.

it doesn't matter where they add content. i could care less if they make a whole new continent to travel to as long as it is content to do. the game is boring and dying. they are dying because the development team is failing to add things for the people to do so they have gotten bored of the same leves every 36 hours and moved on.

the point was these things were discussed at the beginning just like the other 2 cities were and would be just as welcome to be added. more so in my opinion because it would be the first time i have seen a mmo use multiple different crafts at once to join together to do something that is not going out to battle. at least coerthas and mor dhona has nm's in them and quests that take you there.
