I honestly can't tell if your optimism is real or put on, but either way it's annoying.
your hostility is more constructive?

STO is set to launch in just over two weeks time. Based on the history our Devs have with liking to "react" to what other MMOs are doing I would suspect that some kind of significant news about Going Rogue is going to arrive within the next couple of weeks.

At the latest, I think

Says who? Marketing?


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Ummm, cya? Sorry that I don't really care about your sob story and somewhat backended threat to the Devs: "You not doing exactly what I want made me quit, so there. Do what I want, or others will quit too. Muahaha."

On the positive side: I really do think it is likely that tommorrow or Tuesday will bring us some more information on GR/i17. I have no idea what, and I doubt it will be the opening of the Beta... but it should hoepfully be something. Perhaps telling us if GR will be i17 or not. Maybe a hint as to the contents of the SB V: Mutant Pack... something.

Well, i actually have a Magic Hate Ball set up on my phone now, so i'll see what it says. Mind you, not all the responses can be posted here.

Here goes... *shakes Magic Hate Ball* ...Magic Hate Ball says: "Get bent"
i don't know quite how it relates to this thread, or GR/marketing in general, but there you have it.

*shakes again*
Magic Hate Ball says, "No means no, ***"

Yeah, that's enough of MHB for now.

(Yes, you requested Tragic Eight Ball, but it was off somewhere doing something, so all i had on hand was MHB.)

Due to miscommunication not caught until well into the development process, the mastermind "menagerie" set has turned into the mastermind "merengue" set.

Hope you like lemon. Or cookies.

So we're getting...Latin American musicians and dancers as minions? I assume that the lemony cookie and pie minions are in "Going Rouge".

But but but the Mission Architect was supposed to put an END to this 'lack of content' business, as we are now able to provide all our content needs ourselves! What happened???

User Created Content is an entirely different creature from Developer Created Content. If you can show me an official statement anywhere that the Mission Architect Feature was intended to replace Developer Created Content, I can show you an account being terminated permanently. While there's honestly far more quality MA content being released than the amount of Developer Content I would have hoped for out of the last several issues, even very good Fan Fiction is still, well, Fan Fiction. And the fact that I have to sift through a hundred MA Arcs of pure liquid feces to find a single good one sure helps remind me of that fact.

Don't use the in-game search engine. It will only serve up abandoned old farms or worse, current new farms. Or even worse: Dev's Choice arcs! Nooo!

Go to the MA forums instead and check out the review threads to find the good stuff. Or at least stuff that isn't yet another fascinating story about samurai or robots who won't move to attack.

An excellent suggestion. I forget what personal hissyfit was making me avoid that part of the forums, which means it's far enough in the past that it can be ignored.

As a side note, I'm playing through your VEAT arcs on my SoA (future Crab) right now! Or, well, I will be once I tab back into the game after finding out if this ridiculous loading screen time means I've lost connection...

If people acted like the lack of GR news so far was any bigger of a problem, the president would need daily briefings on it for the sake of world stability.

... which would actually be pretty good publicity!


Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.

Well, Positron did say during the 2009 anniversary party that since they'd introduced the MA there was no need for the devs to write arcs any more and they'd rather write TFs instead. Now, Posi talking in Pocket D doesn't count as an official statement of policy. I might call it 'highly suggestive', though.

Posi didn't say there was no need to write any further arcs; rather, he said that having a bunch of player-made arcs would allow the mission creation devs to focus more on bigger things like TFs ... or, y'know, a bunch of story arcs for Praetoria.

That was before the GR announcement - he had to try and find ways to say they were working on new stuff without mentioning GR
Like when people were asking why not revamp old zones, he said that right now they'd rather make new ones

I figured Tuesday/Wednesday is usually when "stuff happens" around here. Hoping for sooner than later with that in mind. Heheh.
