Update March 2010
Posted On Monday, March 1st, 2010 By Jay
Here are some quick updates.
- I’m working on a new Things I Like Template. It will have pictures. Please keep the mass hysteria to a minimum.
- I like Dante’s Inferno. I disliked Darksiders. *shrug*
- I participated in a Game Dev MW2 tournament. Lemme tell you, the guys from Neversoft are really good.
- I’ve been busy at work on a super secret project that no one can talk about.
WoW Stuff:
- I switched to Shadow. I may write a couple shadow guides for the bosses in ICC I’ve dropped.
- My offspec is holy. Blizzard did good.
- I no longer PvP. Sad Panda.
STO Stuff:
- I am having a lot of fun with this game.
- This game is a big change for Cryptic Studios.
- You can play it in bite sized chunks.
- They need to fix their UI design. It blows to put it nicely.
- They need to fix their player training of the UI. That blows harder.
- They need to make more of the episodes open instance, seriously. This will open up opportunities to create excellent single player content AND encourage people to play together.
- They need to make the lower tier ships valuable. I don’t know how to solve this issue but it’s there. Currently there is no reason to use a lower tier ship once you rank beyond it.
Finally, they need to keep the faith. They have a GREAT game. This guy should be banned from posting. Check out the section of Update 1, he basically invited people to stop paying and playing their game if don’t “get it”. I understand focusing on your core audience that will continue paying for your game. That’s CCPs model, slowly building up your player base for the long haul. What I don’t get is why he said it. Elitist clubs may work in a real social atmosphere or even as focused groups within a games community. I don’t know if that works as a marketing tool.
That’s all the updates I have for now. More to come soon!
