With the upcoming steam release and all this stuff i think its time we have an official road map again... Give something for those new players and existing players to look forward to and be hyped about. I think the road map did a lot of good. First thing on the road map needs to be a new and improved tutorial that doesn't just kick the new players outta the nest after 3 seconds. It need's to give them sufficient knowledge in all areas in the game to be able to excel in the game rather than feel lost. I think they should earn various tiny yet rewarding upgrades through the process as well... Maybe 30 starting BP, 1.5k max stam, 2 stam gain etc...? something...  Existing players would have to repeat the tutorial as well if they do so choose to get the upgrades. This would need to be an in depth tutorial that navigates you through all the important tabs and links in FS showing you things and would require you answer quiz questions as well. Maybe show multiple combat simulations aswell and break it down move by move stat by stat why certain things happened. You get my point...Tutorial needs some INSANE WORK.

Okay and yes i know towards the end of the roadmap the cows were very off on some of the release dates... They should give release months rather than exact dates...They should also give themselves more time to do things rather than trying to jam pack everything and release it asap.

There is no upside for HCS to do this. What they will get is people complaining about various things:
1. Why isn't xxx on the list?
2. They are not meeting the target dates!
3. yyy idea is stupid
4. Zzz should be changed
5. Why isn't HCS responding to my comments about suggestion aaa!?
6. HCS's direction is wrong

7. only hoof's opinions matter

8. Etc

What is the upside for them to do this?

Cows don't do well with roads.. They seem to like the field where they can wander home whenever they need something...

[EpicPiety]

This isn't a matter of the cows...It's a matter of does this game need direction?

[tharzill]

As long as the Cows know the direction the game is going it's fine with me. We don't need to know. Let them surprise us now and then.

You couldn't be more backwards. In fact it is Hoof who is the only one who will add direction and development to this game!

We never really see game updates without a road map tbh...Whens the last time you actually saw a game update on the news page?

That was just implementing FSH ideas...Wasn't needed...Also what i suggested guild flash sales which wasn't really anything new we had flash sales before.

I'd never realised that double-composing-experience events were in FSH 

[edit: in case anyone is half asleep, they aren't of course]

Maybe Chewy should have added:

8. Why did HCS implement my idea aaa?

 

which wasn't really anything new we had flash sales before.

 Only because HCS had implemented flash sales a bit earlier - and if I remember correctly, they did this without putting it on a roadmap

 

 

I can't help thinking, EP, that you are doing your best to illustrate Chewy's point.

You are failing to see my point...Look at all the past game updates compared to when we had a roadmap...Can't even compare!

True!

There have been FAR more updates to this game without it being listed on a roadmap then when we had one.

 

What was your point again?

For the sake of saving me time reread. Pay attention and keep the key world *Rate* in mind. Ofcourse i'm not saying over the period of the whole game? We only had a road map for one year...

[BigGrim]

Hi there.

This thread is descending into bickering and flame baiting.

If we create a new roadmap, we'll let you all know about it.
