IndigoRebel Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Donald Trump presidency made me feel like 2 years have passed XD The whole game is janky, we have only been convinced that the new animations look so great because we have been deprived of anything above janky. Crowbar was an example Im not going to blow smoke up the devs a%% for a cowby hat sprite. its something that should have been available already.. And as they continue on the update, the playerbase continues to be deprived of Cowboy hats.

Capt_Paradox Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I'd love to see a sprite animation tool added to TileZed. I think having animated sprites, would make the game feel less static than is does now. I'd also like to see an event manager at some point so this way mappers could setup single player campaigns or perhaps just something to create a story driven mission. As of now the only way to do that would be LUA scripts and a crap load of coding. Which is quite a bit of work when you think about the environment mapping, building creation, custom textures(formatting) and more. trombonaught 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B33ware Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 (edited) To all lil pussies that's screaming "they do it wrong, game never be released, they just promised etc." Dont play this game till desired feature will be add. I didn't play since the animation be promised. Some times ago I backed a Dead linger. Those developers are real scumbags, they lied, they disappeared and do a lot disgusting things(maybe some of you backed this project like me) Just give time to indie stone, they really deserve it, they make a best zombie survival game. Don't be scum, guys. Oh, and I forgot-thank you devs:) Edited February 19, 2017 by B33ware Forgot to add some kind words for devs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How you think that's supposed to "say a lot about the developers" doesn't really mean a lot when the other option you imply is indefinitely worse.

There is 20 dollars worth of game here as - is. And if you don't think so, good news - they didn't advertise stuff that hasn't been implemented already on the store page, they don't include "fake" features in the trailer to arouse purchase. And the disclaimers are there as well. The people whining about development are those that bought the game already and if it hasn't been said enough times, this is the exact reason why they don't talk about NPCs anymore. Every time a video is released, you think it's coming out tomorrow. Nobody is faulting the community for being hyped for announced features, but at what point do you take responsibility for blowing it out of proportion. Good job cutting out the rest of his quote so it looks like butter bot is just gloating. I have my own issues a mile and a half long with the staff for this game but you are just asking for it.

IndigoRebel Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I respect the game enough to join a forum. Hack it at making my own map, and voice my opinion. But im not speaking from a "bwaaaah I want hats" place I am 100% positive just even a hat feature would have had an effect on the sales better than any of their minor updates lately. Have you ever seen how apeshit people would go for a new hat sprite in Runescape. Even if it was compulsive buyers who only put 5 minutes into the games, its still money for the game. So i feel they wasted their time. And Un youre right We dont know how long they can work on this project before theyre burnt. And I notice that there are these simple map tools and mod tools in place just in case the devs did cease development so that the game could still try to thrive through the community alone. The U.S. president is Trump right now.... anything can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butter Bot is entitled to his own opinions, but what else do you expect - he works for the place, of course he can't slander the developers. You shouldn't mock him for doing what is expected of somebody who is paid by them to a job he more or less did. It's a much smaller team than people realize which is what I'm also trying to get across. Just let these people work on their game. I wish people would stop squandering the potential of it because everything happens at a snail's pace. Stuff like metalworking and traps/foraging took forever to get here, but they still did. The new map was being talked about and at the midpoint of zomboids that featured it also had people saying it was all talk with no end product. I had fun with the game before then, and it got better after... and if everyone doesn't have the same opinion that's totally cool and expected, but this is something that is never going to change unless they go on a hiring spree with funds they may not have. My whole rant back there wasn't totally dedicated to you, but the implications with your art are there entirely.

EnigmaGrey Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Little bit confused as to what I'm supposed to be slandering, acting as a puppet for, or what reason I'm being crucified, though. The founders not releasing a few things incrementally and instead aiming to get a feature all out at once is of course a frustrating, but that doesn't make it an objectively bad approach. It just means that doing things in little baby steps (New crowbar animation! Now with three hats!) ain't going to happen. If that means some people get bored or decide that obviously means they'll never be released then, well, that's unfortunate, but it was a conscious choice that was made, complete with its own unique consequences. I'd just argue having such simple updates wouldn't stem the hate or people's boredom, anyway, as evidenced by how routinely the other devs "small stuff" is trashed. It's TIS's game. They'll develop it however they like. Kuren, MadDan, Rathlord and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombadger Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 @Kim Jong Un My implications were explained. If the artist telling you literally what he was thinking as he made the art doesn't change your perspective on it, then I am at a loss. But I'll try one more time. The only complaint I have is that people complain about this wonderful game. And that you assumed very, very wrongly that I numbered among that howling pack of yahoos. Hey @Butter Bot Sorry if the imagery squicked you mate. It probably doesn't help, but it could have just as easy been Enigma or any of the other kind folks who have to listen to people ask for hats and crowbar animations. I see you people sacrificing your time and effort in a very thankless job. No slandering, no crucifixion but an inability to give said howling pack of yahoos their crowbars. Hands being tied. Was it the skull and pentagrams? I feel like I triggered some folks. And certainly not for the reasons (a cheap laugh aimed at the bored, impatient masses) I was shooting for. Just in case, I'll conceal the whole deal lest it start getting around that I think TIS are a bunch of satanists. (Lovely people that they are.)

No, with no context whatsoever it definitely looked like he was being puppeted by the developer demons. If I'm being honest, your explanation is a far stretch from the initial implications. Perhaps you forget, but you added this to it: "THE 1% HAVE SPOKEN. ALL IS GOING ACCORDING TO PLAN. IndigoRebel, CEASE YOUR NAYSAYING. THE NEW PLAYER ANIMATIONS ARE COMING. WITH IT, ALL SHALL BE WELL AND ALL MANNER OF THING SHALL BE WELL." [In response to a quote from BB] This, combined with the puppet imagery, would tend to imply that the account is just repeating what it is told to repeat and holds no ounce of truth or meaning behind it. How you expect that to convey positive connotations (or somehow make him a martyr) is beyond me, but hey, what do I know? I don't really have to explain that simply stating something has a different meaning because you are the artist doesn't take away from what everyone interprets, especially since you clearly gave it negative connotations. It was definitely a jab at Butter Bot. I'd say "choose your words more carefully next time", but unfortunately I don't have much of a reason to believe your "telling you how it really is" description, and frankly I don't need one since you realize how thin-ice doing such a thing would be.
