Howdy UWE team!

What hapenned to your twitteritis ? You used to give us updates almost daily, now it's only once a week to talk about single mothers and their dreams, and other algotechnic collisions..

Sure you got a lot to do, but I'm really missing the daily updates, even if they aren't breaking news. You got me used to knowing kinda what's going on, and it sure helps waiting for the Alpha less painful. You guys are so cool, and I think it was a really nice idea to invite your fans to be part of the story.

So..can I haz daily updates? Please? :)

You guys are really awesome, and we trust in you. Thanks for the amazing game you're cooking for us.

    I still think somebody should install a webcam in their office.

    Given the situation and all the impending goodies, I find radio silence extremely comforting. It means they're walking instead of talking.

    Just be lucky enough they gave us anything to feed off of. Most developers give us nothing for months at a time, sometimes years!

    Yeah, I'm not QQing or anything, just telling them I enjoyed the way they are/were doing it ! I mean, it's great to include your fanbase in what you do..that's why we all have ns2 as the browser homepage, right?

    What kind of daily tweet do you want?

    "We are testing the engine"

    "We are taking engine test reports"

    "We are fixing bugs in the engine"

    "We are bugging tests in the gemz"

    "We are drinking beer.. (finally!)"

    Agreed, most devs give little or nothing. Most mods don't even update more than a picture or something every week. Once a week is a LOT, so just be happy.

    *edit*

    Oh, and yes to web cam :P

    I love the cam idea, but I dont think they gonna do it one reason is considering they are holding back on some stuff and dont wanna show it, and you all know if the cam thing happens we will be sitting and scanning and enhancing the images looking for clues :D
    Video chat with devs, now that is what I wanna see happen. ask questions and talk and hang out for an hour or so Id love to see this happen on a friday maybe after work.

    fingers crossed :D

    It can be placed at the same distance that the Flashbang webcam is often placed at (a decent distance from monitors). Other than that, we can just have web cams pointed at their faces. That way, we can tell how hard they're working just by how intently they're looking at the monitors. We can also monitor coffee (or other energy drink) consumption and start a counter on the amount of odd faces that... Matt makes.

    Its what the people want.

    A video chat would be nice though, but having it once in a blue moon would make others go crazy and they're far too busy (I hope) to make it a weekly event.

    I sure hope they read the thing about the video chat and go ahead and do it, it dosnt have to be a weekly event nor a monthly event just something we could do from time to time or at least once or twice before launching the game.
    now go spam Charlies inbox! go my minions!

    1.) One update a week is more than enough.

    2.) The best thing that came out of this thread came out of kouji_san's brain...er...youtube repertoire.
