<div class="IPBDescription">uwe should haz one.</div>So everyone is frustrated with the lack of a patch and reveals take away from the work of the dev team.

Since a picture is worth 1,000 words, why not screen grab a cool development pic once a day to feed the hungry dogs?

You tweet about the HA/XO, the onos gore, how sweet your new flamethrower is: well, that's awesome, snap a quick photo, email it to a forum moderator and have him post it.

It will at least help us alpha testers while we wait for the next patch, and it will give us something constructive to talk about and direct questions to the gameplay dev team while the engine guys squash bugs.

SIGN IF YOU AGREE!!

    so i'm the only one who thinks it would be cool to look at an inhouse tester's screenshot of any of the things they've been tweeting about? really?

    I don't think the devs like revealing things subtly... all their reveals in the past had long write ups with a video showing off what they did. A screen shot wouldn't do the HA/XO justice. I would prefer they do a proper reveal when it's fully completed.

    I'm not.

    Nor would I be particularly interested in random pictures to be honest.

    Much better to just keep the occasional writeup and article on the frontpage, those are fine and usually quite interesting to read.

    A studio webcam would be neat, but not needed.

    This way, we could actually see wat the guys do with our money besides having an obscene party ;)

    I like Tig's idea. Honestly they'd just be teasers for the later, full reveal. If they do it right, they could be great teasers...

    you're entitled to your opinion, i'm just saying it would be nice to get something quick and dirty to talk about and build excitement for the game.

    No labels, no text. Just an (ambiguous?) image. A teaser for the full reveal.

    I thought this was a thread about which alcoholic beverages the devs get trashed on...
