Not to dismiss all the valid criticisms but those poeple working on asset packs are not the same that would be fixing technical errors. Also the announcement includes a mayor performance patch (well see how that goes) and the beginnings of nodding tools. It propably won’t fix everything that’s currently wrong but if like to be proven wrong
Yeah idk with how angry the fans have been I don’t think there’s anything they can do that will make the angry people happy, so they might as well do what they feel is best.
They release fixes but no DLC: Great, so we can play a game and it doesn’t even have modding/dlc support , 6 months too late
They release DLC but fixes aren’t ready: Great so they aren’t prioritizing fixes
Lose/lose for them.
I also don’t think they plan on “fixing” stuff like fans expect. They released this to be a ten-year game. I’ll get downvoted to hell, but they built this to run at 30fps, if they can hit that bar now then I think they’re good. I think too many people are looking at CS:1 through the lens of 10-years of development, with the mods, dlcs, and packs we all love, and forget what it was like when it started - which was remarkably close to this one. It was absolutely fun, but definitely a bit clunky and empty, but it was right off the heels of SimCity 2013 and everyone was desperate for anything better than that, so the bar was at the bottom. To me this feels exactly the same as the original release. It got better over time, and as hardware improved so did the game. But hey, what do I know, I’m just a pleb from the 90s who’s happy playing simulator games at 30fps.
Yeah in the short term there are going to be a lot of lose/lose scenarios for them, but this is the stupid prize for playing stupid games with what they released.
I hope they stock it out, games like No Man’s Sky show both that a developer who cares enough to try can earn back the trust of a player base, and that the process to do so requires a lot of work.
