All good and fair comments and assessments there.
The problem is of course there are many different types of human and we are all different and have differing opinions and aspirations.
Then TGC also have input and aspiration and guide what happens with the product sometimes from a different commercial perspective I guess.
Hopefully TGC will get Reloaded right. Include the basic core features first whilst maintaining quality, stability and performance. Then only add what can sensibly be added to maintain the same.
Quality over Quantity - every time - agreed. I think TGC - agree for Reloaded.
I don't blame people for wanting more and everyone as we can see has personal opinion on what they want as an individual. Whats important to them - almost everyone has something of preference. Its in our nature to personalise when somethings important to us. When you add them all up its too much often. Clearly its not helpful having too much when it overburdens an engine for reasons we know about.
Hopefully everything will be kept in some sort of sensible balance starting with core features and built upon thereafter. Quality control to maintain stability and performance is needed as you go - if it falls away or is swept away it wont be good as we all know what happens then.
Everything including the community is a two edged sword isn't it. Take the good and leave the bad behind just as in life itself which is what its all about - we humans and such a demanding lot we are.
I don't think ideas and wants in and of themselves are a bad thing its what drives us humans to make and do better. Its the implementation that's at the heart of the problem and how we respond and manage those aspirations
Quote: "And one of my biggest problems and one that has some people from the community angry with the way I discussed it is the amount of different people who worked on the official code. Too many different people, too many different ideas. Too much non optimisation, new features added before problems were fixed."
I don't disagree with any of Thraxas comments.
We must have that balance in Reloaded - the other leads to the dark side.
Reloaded just cant provide for everything we all want it will be without doubt impossible.
Not sure why I am still commenting on all of this - its been said many times over and over again, since well a long time and is well known where issues lie and where potential pitfalls come in. I keep commenting well because I care for this community, forums and the Product.
Chin up, have some faith. The past is gone you cant go back but can learn from it and do better tomorrow. From tomorrow I suggest the woes of the past will be gone....
Now how do I get that weapon on the top of the table?
Happy Days.
There are those that said this day would never come. What have they to say now?
