It was a good concept that Smokejumper couldnt make worth doing even if Twist gave him all his notes...

It was moved so they could do other things, it's been asked on previous ATD's

who knows. Im pretty sure hes still on the team, but he doesnt post much because hes working on the game (I guess) so if anything its a good thing. T-Ray, Smoke, and Spork do enough posting for the whole team.

I wish they did

. Somehow, they never manage to reply to some of the most well-thought out posts on the Official Forums.

Just because they don't reply, doesn't mean they haven't taken it in

(well, that's the official line anyways)

Outfit Base Ownership is the only feature that comes to mind that would have added any real depth to the game, other then the upcomming merit commendations.

I understand the devs have a vision for the game, and months worth of design documents for new features, but it would really make a difference if the devs would at least LOOK INTO features the community suggests, requests, and even designs.

The perfect example is Hayoo's stuff. It would add depth, a functional command structure, empower infantry with emplacements and when combined with merit commendations and outfit base ownership, would make it seem like a real war. Not even a sign of looking into it.

The Devs need to stop freelancing and listening to the community as far as new features go.

I'm pretty sure they do.

Not really. Nobody wanted the LLU, nobody really wanted Core Combat in the form it was presented. Nobody ASKED for Capitols / Continental Domination, although that one worked out for the better.

And tell me, all this time where were all the improvements that everybody has been asking for? Medic improvements, expanded engineer abilities, Outfit Base Ownership, Medals / Character development (Getting around to that now, took them enough), a grid system (I'd imagine a relatively easy change, yet it took forever).

I could keep going.

i kind of agree.

Maybe its a male pride thing, but they just don't seem to want to admit that some of the gamers have good ideas, and that they should take some of them and put it in.

It's easy to be the one painting the picture, but then oyu suddenly have people looking over your shoulder and suggesting a different brush stroke or color. Then the painting is no longer yours.
