To those walls of texts above and 2 pages ago.
Said it before, game is free and it's OK, nobody is working as hired and it's OK, but that doesn't mean the work done must pretty much suck, like now. I better see less features that have been carefully selected without a rush and some consulting with the community to make better choices, not some crazy, shady ideas behind the curtains and wannabe developer ambitions to implement features that as a developer who works on that doesn't experience his own work, but expect someone to like it and get positive feedback?
Bottom line, it's fine that hard work is done and much effort is put in this game, thank you a lot, but when that effort and hard work is on the cost of my game play experience witch is ruined by just doing stuff out of blue, i don't know what to say .... except for, thanks for nothing, again.
Developers, don't have fun on the cost of mine and the rest of the community, it's not much to ask to just not screw up the game we like.
Balthasar:
I don't get the problem anyway. Donation has nothing to do with the actual development of the game itself. It's just to pay the server rent to keep it running. Criticism (in a constructive way ofc) and suggestions from the playerbase is a natural part of a project like this and more then that its welcome. (How and when devs deal with such is another topic but also something, which is up to them. This can be frustrating for both the players and the devs sometimes.) But this isn't the right place to talk about ongoing changes/fixes etc. , in my opinion. Simply donate or not but don't mix things together, which aren't connected to each other.
(Inb4 "Yeah but they ARE connected! I don't like that this and that isn't fixed yet so i won't help to keep the server running anymore!")
Pucha:
i think this conversation is pointless.
Please close this thread,
Scypior was asking only for help/donate for server month fee.. as always..
DONATE for server month fee is not equal to PAYING for in-game profits etc.
Is it so hard to uderstand???

Really.

Not really, because with the fishing dude it's more like he's minding his own business in his own personal space. With 2238 it's more like a horribad rock band staging a free concert in a pub and going ballistic when people tell them they suck and start leaving after 10 minutes of listening to their crap. Oh, and they were playing your favourite Iron Maiden songs, terribly. I mean yeah, they were doing it for free and all, but hey, they said it was gonna be good and made the call to perform in front of an audience, how is it the audience's fault they don't like it and dare to say it out loud? And to make it even worse, our rock band here is telling everyone that there won't be another concert if we don't pay for new strings for Bubba's guitar cause the ones he bought with his own money snapped when he slipped while performing The Trooper.
Besides if you guys are feeling so much empathy for 2238 devs who at worst wasted some free time you must be going insane about all the professional game developers who failed. I mean they didn't do it for free, they lost a lot of money... and they just wanted to entertain you! Think of all the ruined careers, wives who couldn't handle their husbands staying late at work for weeks and filing for divorce and so on and so forth. Their situation is about a million times shittier than the 2238 crew's is, but somehow that doesn't prevent you from looking at their creations with contempt and saying that bad games are bad.
Also, guess what? Counter-strike was free. Advanced Combat Environment is free. Project Reality is free. Mount and Blade was free. DayZ is free. So many good games and mods are free and were made by hobbyists in their free time and yet the "2238 is free" catchphrase keeps being used to silence criticism as if it could make the game any better. It is what it is, people are leaving and if nothing changes will keep leaving until it dies - deal with it.
The punchline is simple - you want a friendly crowd, give a better performance.

But you don't have to spend your money, so what's the problem? I don't get it, really.
