Dear CrusssDaddy, nice to read yor post, great job, but I have to tell you - as same as me- if you dare to complain or point out what is happens (i.e. matrix does not want to relase this game) you will end like me: - you are a troll, you do not understand nothing, etc, etc, etc, and you will receive the usual answers: - the game will be ready when it will be; - you cannot always get what you want; - etc., etc., etc., You hit the target, you are perfect right.............but do not you dare to tell what is under the eyes of thousands people Very nice post............ P.S.: be patient - like me - the game will be released (ah, ah, ah,) meanwhile I have a lot of fun seeing the fake promises and pretexts of those poor boys..... And now I'am ready to receive a lot of insults, but the real - important - question is: When this game will be realased? Probably me and you have already guess the ansewer.............. quote:
ORIGINAL: CrusssDaddy Let's cut the crap. It's time to be done with amateur hour, and with a company that could care less if WiF is ever played on computer. CWiF (let's not prolong the joke that is 'MWiF') is being held hostage by Matrix. Not sure what type of deal ADG got snookered into, but if there is any means of reverting the computer rights, they need to be turned around and shopped to companies actually interested in completing and releasing the game. Seven years, folks. Shannon you tried, but this task is plainly beyond the abilities of yourself and a cast of volunteers - whether that's due to a lack of support or talent doesn't matter. At least moving on will save you the indignity of cutting-and-pasting more New Year's Resolutions to be broken. Time to set fanboy-ery aside and put away the silly smileys. After seven years, the current product is functionally indistinguishable from the old beta I play every week - limited scenarios and no AI. That's all that really matters. Graphics are sweetened, there're historical descriptions, and some bugs removed? BIG F'IN DEAL. At some point, results have to trump effort. After seven years with Matrix, CWiF still hasn't reached that point, and so it's time to admit the failure of the current model and look elsewhere. That's not going to happen if every too-little effort is celebrated, every noble failure is backslapped and 'atta-boyed, and every New Year is celebrated with the same tired thank yous and prayers for progress. I've written this post to encourage Matrix and Shannon to step away honorably. I'll email ADG with the same thoughts and an exhortation to find a company worthy of the CWiF brand. Not sure what I else I can do. I hope others will join me in taking off their rose-colored glasses and embarking on a course of action that might result in the CWiF product we deserve. quote:
