Abandoned or just Incommunicado?

Gotta love apologists. Some people will defend anything.

This. You people are demanding news yet you are not looking for it

Only thing that Rocket has confirmed is dogs. Really?

Soo many game breaking issues and the #1 priority is dogs.....

Maybe the dogs bark to warn you when a graphical glitch is about to show?

Constant communication? Nope, never mentioned that.

AAA game, nope never mentioned that.

Why don't you try reading people's posts instead of inventing them - ah I see that would be far too constructive. faceplam.

You act as if it is an AAA game by wanting their to be constant bug fixes and patches and constant communication from the developers, when this a small good that has only Rocket to communicate with people and he is very busy. Also I like how you didn't address what I said to you and just said nope didn't mention that. Good work OP.

What you're doing is not constructive, I don't see why you think if you constantly spam on the forums it will achieve something.

Look man, I feel your pain here. Waiting for fixes is agonizing. Patience is key.

But really, it's barely been a month. The way people are acting you'd think it had been three.

The only thing constant in this thread is your constant miscomprehension. Go eat some more troll food.

Thanks for the pointer. Still, it's not really expecting much to think that the forum dedicated to the mod might be the first place to post updates, is it?

[Dankine 377]

go go sense of entitlement!

[Jex =TE= (DayZ) 218]

I would love to put all u guys to work on the mod and have to address the media and work on getting things fixed and then come here and listen to you all bitch - i think you'd be thinking - fuck u lot, we'll tell you something when we HAVE something.

I think what gets under people's skin is that Rocket is on a media circuit doing interviews like a one-man marketing company.

The problem is, there's not much to hype at this point.

I can deal with the bugs, I can wait a couple years for a stand alone. This stuff takes time to do right...

but why in the crucified christ fuck spend so much time promoting a non-existent product?

Sell it after it's made. Besides, the word-of-mouth popularity of the mod has surpassed the

need for continued interviews for the gaming community

Marketing post production is a fail. That is just how real life works. Trying to get attention after a release kills sales. Many games, movies, products have had this happen and lost money even shut down.

It also opens up new industry contacts and distributors.

I'm in San Fran right now, fly out tomorrow for PAX :)

For the uninitiated, that is secret BIS code for "I'm working so hard my fingers are bleeding" ;-)

Considering Rocket isn't even in the country there has been a lot of communication, a lot of these things have already been answered numerous times. It sucks, they know it sucks, they wern't even planning on releasing 1.7.2.5 but due to the number of complaints about artifacting they rushed out a patch to try and fix it instead of waiting for 1.7.3. They thought they fixed it, we all know how that worked out.
