Bah, it's dead anyway.  Very few posts, no dev interaction.  Looks like the whole exercise was a complete waste of time.

Yeah I checked the dev tracker and there are 0 meaningful posts. I didn't bother with the Kookie posts - she's just the coordinator/mouthpiece. Varg and Feather_of_sucks posted a few times, and nothing substantial.

Although knowing that he is working on bug fixes means that now all bugs will no longer do the same thing every time - they'll be random.

There was good interaction in the beta forum for like the first 24 hours after the beta started. Then, zilch.

Best part is that apparently the devs couldn't see the "Items" section of the Lamannia forums, so that's why they weren't posting in there. At least according to FoSucks

they broke DevTracker when they locked out the forums. the CS people show up, but not, ya know, the actual devs.

Look at Steelstar's, Vargouille's, and PurpleFooz's profiles for a more accurate posting history.


but, yea, They bit off more than they can chew, again, Won't get it finished in time, again, and already have the next year planned out so no opportunity to actually get it fucking right, again.

Just out of curiousty, has anyone tried the content, and is it the usual intern team or something decent? I kinda liked the High Road but I am not spending serious cash. Can have plenty of TR plans without it...

Hah - I would if I could get something other than "CLOSED" on the Launcher when I try to log in :p

Knowing Turbine, they should have this fixed with about 15 minutes left in the Closed Beta.

I found the content pretty decent.
And some of those quests aren't quite linear, contrary to the High Road's "we make you think you have options but you actually don't".

That is positive at least. I wasn't impressed with the three introductory Wheloon quests at all. How much new stuff is there?

Yup, and associated wildernesses, just like announced by devs long ago. King's forest all over again, finding the quests isn't easy.
