Laziness or Incompetency?
So they're bringing back Skull Town as an Arena map. But they can only keep it during the event cause apparently "BR Arena maps actually load the full BR map " So...they can't be bothered to actual...

I think that it's kinda stupid to call it laziness when you dont know the work that goes into what you're suggesting. These people dont have infinite time and money, they cant just grant the wishes of everyone who plays their FREE game
- @SheepsKing Load map and assets into 3dmax or whatever they use, in overview click n drag border over selected area, copy/paste then delete remaining. Import into source engine with some tweaks and Voilà.
It'll obviously take a little more work than that but for someone who specialises in this working for a billion dollar profit game, there's no excuse.- @apostolateofDOOM Exactly. Thank you!
- @SheepsKing OG KC and Skulltown is a fan favorite and is constantly being asked for even more now when Arena mode was released. They gave people what they want but they did it half-assedly. Plus this "free" game brings in a lot of money for them so I don't get why for once they can't give their fans what they want and actually put some effort into it.
@Daze623 Do you really think that they currently just don't put in any effort? They know Skulltown is asked for, this is them giving it to you. What right do you have to demand more? Also, don't put free in quotes like that. It literally is free, there's nothing making you spend money on the game. Literally everything that you like about the game is a gift, including Skulltown. And of course they're out to make a profit, so if what you're suggesting was profitable, they would do it.
In other words, they probably don't have the money or resources to do it. It's not about laziness or incompetence, and you honestly sound super entitled and rude. Do you know how much people get paid to work on this game? I don't either, but clearly they don't get paid enough to do what you want them to. I guess you have the right to complain about whatever you feel like, but if you want * done for you, then you should be ready to pay for it yourself.

"Do you really think that they currently just don't put in any effort?"
Regarding this upcoming event? Yes
There are ways to make it better and yet they just recycled old content just so they can release something
"What right do you have to demand more?"
I'm a customer. I have the rights to demand more when I think it's not to my standard.
"Also, don't put free in quotes like that. It literally is free, there's nothing making you spend money on the game. Literally everything that you like about the game is a gift, including Skulltown."
They're not gifts. They are content they're releasing to keep this game from going stale and dying.
"And of course they're out to make a profit, so if what you're suggesting was profitable, they would do it."
Ofcourse they don't think it's profitable. It's not a skin they're going to sell after all but if you put some thought into it what harm does it do that they try and release something people have been asking for?
"In other words, they probably don't have the money or resources to do it. It's not about laziness or incompetence, and you honestly sound super entitled and rude."
Yes they do have the money and resources to do it. They just don't want to use it. And honestly I don't care if you think I sound super entitled or rude. If they're going to half-* their contents they need to be called out for it.
"Do you know how much people get paid to work on this game? I don't either, but clearly they don't get paid enough to do what you want them to. I guess you have the right to complain about whatever you feel like, but if you want * done for you, then you should be ready to pay for it yourself."
Except customers are already paying for it? Or are you saying we have to commission them like they're some kind of free lance artist(which they are not)?
If they just said they wanted to keep the prestige of Old KC and Skulltown just so they don't keep it permanently. I'd honestly be fine with that but the excuses they gave are just screaming laziness and incompetence to me.
