Jerek Laz	Posted - 2004.03.28 20:16:00 - [1] Dearie me... Frankly, lets think about this; on average, you get how many players a day? 5K at least? Ok... now, since the majority are happy with the game (Or seem to be), lets say only a small amount petition each day, say 5%. That's still 250 people. Perhaps per day. How many support staff do you reckon they have? I doubt there'd be that many, given that they have to pay for publishing, advertising, merchandise, server engineers etc. So, limited staff + loads of whining peitions witha f ew valid points. Give them a break for goodness sake! You're trying to balance a game that has 7000+ INDIVIDUALS who all have their own ideas. Just like in a real economy, you're gonna get screwed if something goes the wrong way. Cut them some slack. For the most part, the game runs fine, and of course it'll be buggy. It's a very complex game. Trust, you didn't WANT to see it during beta... though that display at ECTS was quite nice... anyway, people are getting all high and mighty about how much they want the devs to do for THEM.... I don't hear much about the community. So, give them some slack.. four days! that's pretty good if they're sifitng thru a load of emails and petitions from new players who are pnicking or asking for help because they just got podded by some self-righteous peopl who want to universe crafted in their image. Ok, reading that last paragraph, i'm getting vitriolic... apologies, but really; these guys put in a lot of work for us, so whining about how you lost a few mil (When you pobably already have loads) will do nothing save probably discouraging them from releasing ANY new updates. Hey, if this was a Mircosoft product, it'd crash a lot more AND email your credit card details all over the shop... whilst not really letting you play because "DX has an error in windows: it doesn't like it..." Ok, thank you... now going to go back and play this rather good game...
