I have a controversial idea

We know how often we can pull vehicles in the current build, we don't know how often we can pull vehicles in future builds. If you don't allow me to argue using the current build as an example what kind of discussion do you really want?

We know how often an uncerted low battle rank character in an alpha build of the game can pull vehicles. This really doesnt tell us a whole lot.

That last thread was closed for a reason. You guys don't need to rehash the discussion from it.

Yeah sure, we haven't played the game. We've only watched videos and read articles about the game. Does that entitle us to bitch about the game? HELL YEAH IT DOES.

We've waited for this game for a very long time and therefore alot of us are really sensitive when it comes to this game we want it to be as good as it possibly can.

Now alot of people - like yourself - seems to believe that the developers are gods. They are not. But they are indeed quite talented. And you know the best part? They have an amazing community interaction, to this forum, that no other studio that I know of has. So don't get me wrong I have tons of faith in the developers abilities. But sometimes, something might actually slip by their eyes, they might miss a crucial gameplay portion of the game that we might actually spot. Or perhaps we come up with a great idea that would really benefit the game, something even Matt Higby couldn't conjure up? Then we would have helped in making the game better as well! Last but not least we can give the developers feedback on how the community feels about the game!

You know that when you create something you almost always love it. Wether it's a short movie you make at school that you think is sooo funny but it actually sucks, or it's a game (Revelations 2012 anyone?).

It's important for both us - and the developers - that we continue to bitch because it might just do nothing, but it might just change everything.

Let's wait for beta to... post in official PS2 beta forums !!!


This is a fansite, what would you expect fans to do ? Make less threads when exciting video content is released ?


A better idea would actually be to consolidate threads so the same topics do not keep reappearing every 2 weeks or so when new people arrive on the forums. Unfortunately, just like your controversial idea, it's as unpractical and unlikely to happen. As a matter of fact, your idea keeps popping up every 2 weeks if not more often.

Are you even listening to yourself?
"I don't like what I see or hear but I trust that the developers have covered this problem through some means unknown to me so it isn't worth talking about".

We aren't discussing the same things as in that thread, we are just discussing what is worth discussing on a forum dedicated to an unreleased game. I am not so dumb that I'd bring that up again.

In no way do i think the Devs are gods, i'm not sure how you decided that?

What i'm saying is that a lot of people are talking in definitives rather than having a discussion.

Coming up with new ideas is great, but trying to fix a problem that may not exist, or to start ranting and raving about a feature, that we dont know is in there or not?

I want this game to be as good as possible, i want to have constructive discussions about aspects, or perceived aspects of the game. A healthy debate is a good thing.
But screaming about something that is based on pure speculation is not. Discussing the speculation? Great, fine, etc. Not going "This feature will ruin the game!!!" When we have no idea its there or not?

Which topics are you talking about, really?

Its not so much the topics, while there are a few that instantly go to the line that said thing will ruin game, its mostly some of the replies and indeed series of replies to topics which can, and often do, start off in a positive vein.

We don't need threads complaining about complaining.
