[QUOTE=Dienekes;44373548]Surprised? Oxide crew makes more progress.[/QUOTE]
Go buy Nether, then come back and complain about update frequency. :v:
Another speechless week. That's what bothers me.
[QUOTE=Shavasku;44373772]Another speechless week. That's what bothers me.[/QUOTE]
Yeah would be nice to have seen an update stating something like:
Hey everyone sorry for another up-dateless week however we have been extremely busy working on the underlying frame work to help get new content out faster while striving to finish the new GUI. Hang in there good stuff is coming.
However, when your super busy with a bunch of things, its the little things that slip your mind or feel like a back breaker. Hopefully some communication will come down soon tho as its so important.

[QUOTE=thelionnessa;44373590]Can oxide add content or just tweak settings?[/QUOTE]
To my knowledge Oxide just runs on Rust's framework and can't add new content, so essentially Oxide has to work within the limitations of Rust's current code. However I could be wrong and there may be a way to do it, but that opens up a whole new issue of intellectual property.
We could post an update saying the exact same thing we posted a couple of weeks ago. Would that help ? Can't you just wait until we have something new to say?
We're not sitting around doing nothing. We have a lot of work to do. That's what we're concentrating on. Do you really need us to come and pat you on the head every couple of days?

Garry has spoken. Problem solved.
Yes, I am very happy.
Dammit, of course Garry had to post right under my post. The shame..... :(

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of crying voices voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced.

Yes it would help, You guys need to realize that you are dealing with mainstream now. Do you think they understand what a REAL Alpha (as in not EAs 2 weeks till launch beta) is lol .
In the time you took to write that post you could have updated the "weekly" updates page to say "still working on.."
Personally I'm enjoying the game and can wait to see what more you guys come up with but Facepunch could really use a community manager that knows how to deal with the "Must have this now" generation.
Haha,im glad Garry has spoken.Now stop whining,enjoy this awesome game,and patiently wait for next update.

I myself check both trello and your main website every day for new updates and I'm sure that I'm not alone. You did something great, you made a game we love, don't be mad at us for supporting it. We all just want to see a little more communication from you guys, that's all.
Garry. I don't care if Rust doesn't get an update for two months. Just keep people informed. Maybe something similar to what Kebal Space Program does. "Devnote Tuedays".

That's what Trello is for.
I mean I've been following the Rust Trello for a while and it has pretty much all the info that people are whining about not having.
They just aren't using it.

I agree with that. But a weekly status update shows the community that they care. It's preventive maintenance. Maybe it will stop all of the whining about no updates. Probably not though, this community will always find something to whine about.

You hit the nail right on the head there.
What would Garry say? "We're still working on the stuff we just said a couple of weeks ago...yeah"?

Too bad the devs does not bother to update it. For instance the most asked for feature of the game, house ownership. Last time I checked it had 2.5K votes, but still no update no mention of nothing.
As someone has prevously said, hire a community manager, update us regularly (weekly) and update your Trello.
[QUOTE=Madrider760;44374491]What would Garry say? "We're still working on the stuff we just said a couple of weeks ago...yeah"?[/QUOTE]
Yes.
Go read Kerbal Space Programs Devnote Tuesdays. Some of them are "Still working on the in-game stats page."
I'd hope that after a few weeks you'd have something new to say, something to show for the weeks of hard work. We all know there is a ton of work to be done, that's why after a few weeks of not seeing any work being done people get a little short.
I don't need a pat on the head every few days, I'm not a child. I'm a customer, I'm someone who pays for software. I put my money into this game and many other games.

I would like it if you came and patted me on the butt, if you know what I mean.

So you're mad because they haven't updated house management on Trello, but you're neglecting to mention that they've been updating procedural terrain, dynamic spawn systems, and fps counters on an almost daily basis? Sounds more like you're just mad they're not working on the portion that [I]you [/I]want to see progress on right away.

What do you mean they do "not bother to update it"? It was last updated yesterday.
Here's the activity bar.

Not looking at one specific requested feature /= "the devs does not bother to update it"
You can whine about / rate whatever you want, but it doesn't make it less true.

Actually I disagree you and so many others that constantly whine about updates seem to need a pat on the head like a child. You see, call me crazy but when I check the website and I don't see any updates I assume that means
"We're still working on the stuff we just said a couple of weeks ago...yeah"
They could always update us with something like:
"Hey you big whiners you already got way more than what you paid for and we are tired of hearing you cry. We decided to scrap the game so good luck with whatever feature you think we should focus all of our time on because you should have been running the project."
Hell look at the title of post and the content. It's basically just a sarcastic person being an ass. Could have just wrote "Hey Garry any news, I just cant wait!"
Stop bugging the devs or they might cancel Fez 2. LET THEM WORK.
