It is. But I do not spend a "majority of my time" here. I also deal with Support, Content Creation, Event Creation/Updates and myriad other odds and sods.

This is totally off-topic, but it has to be said since you brought it up. You're over-stretched. I hope Hoof sees this and hires people. 

 

It has been obvious for ages that you can't possibly efficiently deal with your tasks.

When 150+ people are at EOC, there is a problem.

I think it is a matter of perspective, for me (a PvPer) the more people at EOC the "more" PvP I can do => higher PvP activity (especially with the measly +/- 10 attack range)

 

BUT I can totally understand the frustration "levelers" have with the lack of new content since I have been frustrated myself for years with how the game style I enjoyed getting ignored & worse in time :(

 

the only difference is that the game style I play (=PvP) requires the presence of hoof (coder) BUT the levelers issue with new content only needs grim so it should be very easy to hopefully get new content soon for them !!! :)

 

ignoring the problem doesn't make it go away, it is prolonging the inevitable !!!

(in general)

 

ps: 10 year FS anniversary coming up soon so hope to be pos. surprised :)

Almost 10 years down. Still the same gripes (legit ones, though) as there always has been. When EOC was at 500, the same types of threads were made about lack of consistent content. It's kind of been the thing in FS over the years. Hell, if content only rolls out 2x a year at 150 levels a piece, that would be an improvement, at least. It used to be 10 level blocks! While I can see the concern, there's quite a bit more that I'd like to see before content.

 

Arena needs attention. Or dismantling. Or a nuke.

SE's are dead. Titans, too - other than the seasonals. 

Quest arcs are not only incomplete, but some have gone years without a finish line. 

Scavenging is a waste (unless you're Hades, lol).

Ladder has never been right.

Globals are already stale.

Inventing...What's that? Gear is nothing but frags, after all. 

 

That's a list I came up with in 2 minutes, and no sleep for days. Others here who are way smarter than me could do much better, I'm sure.

 

I won't pretend to know what it's like as a developer or programmer. However, when your highest grossing game every year gets less and less attention so you can roll out other games really makes little sense to me. I know a smidgen about business, and letting your bread and butter flounder in order to roll out other unproven projects can't be a good model.

 

Now, I'm not upset like some folks are. In fact, I don't particularly care. If FS folded today, I'd be bummed - but my life would go on without a hitch. I sometimes go weeks without logging in, anyway. I do understand players frustrations, though. I think sometimes you guys at HCS take these threads as personal attacks, but they're not generally meant that way.  Players just want something to do, is all. Then, at Christmas, we have so much to do in a 2 week span that it can't all possibly get done. Feast or famine, man. There's no in between.

What's frustrating is having people tell me that I need to help the community reach Ruby every time there's a frag global. So they can reach EOC in composing to make their overpowered pots. I don't want to get on here every two or three weeks to have to swing my pinata bat, or stomp on some other type of global. Just so they can Supply the Frags for the demand for composing. I wish there was something else. Maybe if there was some kind of daily Quest. Oh wait a moment

You know what else is frustrating. It's frustrating to have better stats in damage attack and armor then someone else and be completely buffed. Then lose a hit to them in a GvG and they don't have a single buff.

I mean what is up with that?

Ughhh ... Having to many Bills , or eating to much cheese and becoming constipated or getting the Flu and having to miss work are Frustrating things.. This game making you frustrated / angry / ( or in some cases making you Cry lol ) is not frustration that is called sadness that a game can make you feel that way..

Hi there.

 

This topic is achieving nothing. It is just becoming a flame fest.
