Hey,


check out CA here

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Assembly


I found this Ending of the Article Funny, but somewhat True:


"CA's community spokesperson, known as The Shogun, is widely despised within the Total War community. He has generally been completely unwilling to work with, or indeed listen to, the community on any issue."

MP Chat Ban didn't help much with that..

Meh, nothing special. Just someone from the community (obviously) using another system to vent.

LOL

After you posted this some one edited it out. Which btw is against the rules of Wikipedia.

Anyway Wikipedia traces all IP's of those who edit it articles so you can sure fire know who it is through that. Bit sad though that some one rushed the CA's aid and edited it out. lol..

Wow, time for me to get a warning.

This forum is full of a bunch of pantywaists, none of whom can put the blame where it belongs, or take responsbility. Let's face it, if we look at CA's history objectively, there has been a lot of promises they have failed to come through on, and even worse, they haven't listened to the community.

Note how many bugs of RTW weren't fixed: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=46366

How long did it take CA to get past 1.2 on RTW? And the only reason we got a patch was because they released BI. They couldn't make a patch without releasing an expansion to make money. Sad.

There is a bugfixer that has been out in the community for so long, and while some of the things it changes CA might not see as bugs, some certainly are, and CA has ignored it. Don't tell me they don't know it exists!

They just don't care.

So while some may think this article (or I right now), are "venting", but we are stating the objective facts (ie CA hasn't fixed many bugs, or supported it games as much as other developers), and drawing conclusions from that that show CA in a poor light (ie CA doesn't care).

What other conclusion can be reasoned from the facts? Are you going to tell me CA has been nothing but helpful? Let us lay the blame where it belongs, not on the person who wrote that article, or on me for "venting", but on CA for it's actions.

The Shogun can't be THAT bad.

I disagree with that comment. The Shogun most of the time seems OK. The only thing that he did wrong was follow CA staff rules of not listening to online petitions.

{BHC}KingWarman888, sorry to have to say this, but I have just reported you for inciting hatred of a certain (CA) member.
