Dev tracker - nothing meaningful being focused on
https://trello.com/b/ZVrHV38P/apex-tracker *engages sarcasm* Plenty to look forward to in Apex for 2020!

@GRiPSViGiL I'm unsure how hard it would be considering it's not a system they advertise much so having to go back on it and edit things in and out would seem like a one person job but at the same time, forgetful.
Basically seems like they either choose to ignore it altogether or that one person forgot/is to lazy to edit it.
They need a better system, monthly updates of screenshot plans like SWBF2 would seem much easier than having a whole site to edit things and color code it all together.
I mean the last major event on that is Fight or Flight and that's old, not even bothering to add the current events tells me its going in the tin bin soon.

The Dev tracker is a fairly straightforward system as far as I can tell. It’s basically a template of buttons, like you can make with Microsoft Word. I’m imagining it to be as easy as you just writing down what you want and it’ll have options like ‘coming in upcoming patch’, ‘updated’ and more, so parameters the devs themselves set. When done, they can just flick a button to update the status. That’s the reason people use it. It’s well known and easy for both the companies and users.
Not updating this speaks volumes for me, cause contrary to what you said, they actually promote(d) it quite heavily (at least in the beginning) on their twitter feed and on reddit. This is just like updating the website which was months outdated :P
it looks more and more that the website/social media people are forgetful about what’s important and are rather focussing their attention to the positive tweets they can find amidst the hoards of negative ones and reply to those... which I will def say is a full time task, seeing as they are far and between :P
- @Koochi-Q I know they promoted it before, forgot when but it was in game and you were able to check it out, however they completely dropped it and I haven't heard anything about it and the site itself seems like they just put it aside now or something.
I hope it's just cause the person who updates it is on a long vacation and will be updating it soon around next month (Jan).
This is a great game that deserves to be taken care of.- @iBlockHead Yea, for a while it was even in-game. Totally forgot about that :P on reddit, sometimes they still refer to it tho. It seems weird tho. I dunno if you have some website hosting/management skills, but trello is basically Wordpress meets Microsoft Word and PowerPoint. It requires basically no skills but is efficient for the onlookers. So that they don’t keep up with it for me is either:
1) too busy with other stuff (can be either or both positive or/and negative
2) laissez vaire attitude; not caring enough
3) no/miscommunication between the different groups (devs/artists/audio/marketing etc) working on this game
3) abandoned it for whatever reason
@BaldWraithSimp, yup XD I know that alot of ppl commented about that one, but it should be somewhere in the past ‘updated’ ones cause I know it was there at some point :P
- @Koochi-Q And I don't see any mention of the infamous audio issues. Players have been complaining about it since the start of the season, that's 3 months, which only points the obvious here, that devs are just being deliberately ignorant. I mean they have not even acknowledged the issue. Then they call us * and freeloaders. Hypocrisy at it's finest.
