We are talking about necessary changes to that game day to day.

@EE_Elephterion
How many people in your company are still working on that game concerning new software/updates etc.

    It maybe a simple question but probably not one that is going to be answered directly. Few from Envision Entertainment will be working full time on any of their contracted games.

  • no offense - but the question is for @EE_Elephterion

    I think many guys here are interested in how many guys are still working on that game + how many hours a week or month are scheduled for that game?

    I'm aware it's a question for him (or more correctly his boss!), I'm pointing out that he may not answer it, partly because he's not the boss. The answer is probably 'commercially sensitive information' that they don't wish to share. We'll see if he responds, but don't hold your breath!

  • Greetings commander,

    what's the reason for your concern? Maybe I can get to answer this better if I know what motivates this question.

    i think this means how many people are working on game updates? i think its an attempt to find out if theres just one or 2 people sitting around trying not to work too hard and that might indicate that no updates will be coming to servers anytime soon to address the problems of multi accounting abuse and stale server environments caused by mass cooperation.

    Correct!

  • id like to be able to play in a fair and competitive environment but thats not going to happen any time soon. clearly there are no new servers planned that will be any different at all from previous servers, even if the project players themselves try to mask the problem by breaking up and fighting each other for fun the damage has been done. i told you what fs17 was gunna look like day 2 of the server and look at it now. i can guess the next server will be exactly the same and the next one after that will likely be FA and you can guess it will be exactly the same as the last one. what we asked for originally!!!!!! was more servers so some of us could find a more suitable environment to play in apart from the same 150 people playing 350 accounts cooperatively. i dont care if project wins every single FA no moral server until the end of time. i dont care if the germans gang up on and bully every noob that ever tries to play this game in morale servers i would just like the option to play a server not containing such large quantity of these sheeple due to lack of new and fresh exciting environments to play in. these guys start every server the same reason i do to win but look at whats happend now over the years because of this meta, we went from 50,000 slots in a server to 5000. and we could fill those 50,000 now we cant fill 5000 without random people creating a hundred or so accounts to fill up the servers so new ones start sooner.

    im terribly disappointed in all of you, you are all every single one of you noobs in this conversation to me and your opinions are based only on what you have experienced and im here to tell you that you dont know anything about what this game once was or what it could be or what it will end up being if you dont open it up a bit more for us real fans. these project wouldve quit long ago had pvp been anywhere near what it used to be and we would still have THOUSANDS of maniacs going ham cheese and eggs on each other every server start like we still do to this day but only in the first week and then the server is dead quiet and boring as hell which forces project to the start next server before they finish the last ones only to repeat the sadness. make more servers faster sooner or people will get sick of the same people telling them how it is and leave like im going to. i know nothing will happen because we will get tired of asking and just shut up and leave wont we. lol

    thanks for the consideration

    You haven't replied to the question the EE_Elephterion posed, 'Why?' - as already stated by me, it is probably commercially sensitive data so an answer as to why would certainly give him a chance to respond if he thought it a reasonable reason - simply because you want to know or because a low number will lead you to imply the game is dying (stated many times by multiple players over the years) isn't going to be a reason enough.

    I think only an owner or major sponsor could ever expect an answer to such a question lol

    we are not talking about maximum high security information!

    But no answer is also an answer!
  • Then i guess the no answer you have received is the answer you have been given.

    @gamerdruid I guess you can close this topic now ;-D

    sure - closing threads without answering questions is what they are doing for that game - nothing else

    I'm not closing it yet, it doesn't fall into the 'reasons' I have to abide by for a closure, although even if I did a response can be made by EE_Elephterion.

    It'll either die a death of no replies or eventually @Kinshasa551 will get sick of posting the same thing and will also fall foul of the rules about not advancing a topic with a reply ;-)
