Re: [Audyssey] New games for windows not being produced any more?
Hi Shaun, Well, not knowing anything about the conversation in question it is hard to comment on it, but a lot of people have unrealistic expectations. Especially, if it is their first time beta testing and have little to no actual skills with software development. Some people, for whatever reason, are just flat out jerks. Whatever the reason for the criticism though the best solution is communication. I am not just talking about the end users making the criticisms against a product. It is a two way street and it is certainly helpful if the developer can explain why some suggestion won't work, is unrealistic, and takes time to address criticisms and objections as best he or she can. Some developers though don't want to do that so ignore the criticisms or fail to respond making the problem that much worse by their silence. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] New games for windows not being produced any more?
Yeah I agree with you there, someone over skype to one of the devs of the group I work with or at least one of them went nuts at him probably because he expected far to much. At 05:02 PM 3/10/2014, you wrote: Hi Shaun, Yes, it is true if a person is a game developer, a software developer of any kind for that matter, he or she must willing to put up with a certain amount of flack from the user base. That is all apart of the territory of designing software. Someone will like what a developer does and others will down right hate it. However, the important thing to me as a developer is how that flack or backlash is worded. I personally can take constructive criticism. If someone doesn't like something I do by all means tell me, but also suggest how it might be made better. What I can't take is negative comments like "your software sucks," "its crap," "it is buggy," whatever without pointing out how this or that might be fixed or improved upon. The other issue is being realistic. I suppose because most users are not developers themselves they sometimes have wildly unrealistic ideas such as put in an extra mode, an extra setting, or add this or that and be able to turn it on or off at will. That might sound reasonable to an end user, but they aren't the one having to rewrite entire sections of code to make that happen, nor do they have to deal with the issues of debugging the code when something breaks because of adding said setting or mode. The point being if a person is going to make a suggestion try and think of one that does not involve an unrealistic amount of work to be done to change it. As far as pre-ordering goes I have mixed feelings about that. Sighted developers often take orders six months in advanced because they have a team of developers, working regular hours, on a pretty regular 9 to 5 schedule and can pretty much estimate down to the day something will be released. Audio game developers are at most one or two man operations. As a result many of them have families, other jobs, and their programming schedules are likely to be erratic at best. Even if they have nothing else to do but write games anything from the common cold to a nasty case of the flu can throw development off days or even weeks because there is no safety net to rely upon. A single developer has no team to take up the slack for his/her illness. So it makes it nearly impossible to give an exact release date unless that person works really hard to release on that date come what may. Even then it is pretty iffy. As for you not having bought any of the games from Alchemy Game Studios, AKA James North, I'm not sure that is relevant to this discussion. What happened to him is unfortunate, but the important thing for us to do is to live and learn from that situation. I don't really care to get into a debate about that affair again. What I think we have learned as a community is that if we want to buy games, take pre-orders, we need to be able to offer up stable demos or builds for people to download and try while the game is in active development. Rail Racer, for example, was developed at the same time Che was taking pre-orders for the game, but it worked out just fine. People who wanted the game could download all the betas, the patches, etc and not have to worry about Che just taking their money for pre-orders and not giving them a product in return. That worked out fine, and if I were ever to do pre-orders that is the way I'd do it as a developer. There is also another option here. It is to release a preview or demo of the game the way Philip Bennefall did for Parilous Hearts, take pre-orders, and then give himself six months to complete the game. Even if it wasn't fully completed in six months there would be at least something available for the paid customers to play such as a unlockable demo or a beta to play. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] New games for windows not being produced any more?
Hi Bryan, No, Philip didn't take pre-orders for Perilous Hearts for precisely the reasons you stated below, nor did I mean to imply he did. What I meant to say was that a game developer can release a preview or demo, to give perspective customers an idea of the game, and then optionally take pre-orders based on that preview or demo. That way, it isn't like the customer has to wonder how far along the game is, what it will be like, and the demo version is something the developer can use to build upon which means most of the really hard work will probably already be done speeding up development time.

Re: [Audyssey] wayfare mud
Hi. I'm on the wwy14 planet or whatever it is called. i gather that it tells you what the biome is, but it seems some are much rarer than others, and after all sighted players get an ascii map to see the biomes around them, that's the only annoying part of the game sinse right now I'm looking for some neurofiber but can't find any. One other thing that is confusing me is this hacking business. i keep finding ojbects like password chips and scrambled kits and such, but I have no idea what to do with them or how to get any good from them at all. I went back to colony central, bought a smart pad and something calling itself a novice educational database which said I could access the hack menue, but typing hack does nothing. This is a little frustrating sinse usually they come up as items, indeed in some ways this is my pproblem with a lot of the game you can expend a lot of effort building something and then not be clear on what it's for sinse it doesn't necessary do what you thought, and the description isn't clear. For instance I have no idea how good each rleative weapon is, and often I'll find myself building something and then having no idea what it's for or finding it doesn't do what I thought, for example I built a mining tool in hopes it'd help with resource collection but it just seems to respond to the dig command which I've not yet got to work on anything, likewise i have got the explore skills up so I can use the unpaid catographer skill to discover oobjects but I often find random things like spire outcroppings of rock that I'm not sure what they do. There is a lot in this game and I'm enjuoying it, but I do wish it was a little clearer on several points just to give you an idea where your going before you expend the time. beware the grue! dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Point being if gamers are worried that developers are not developing games, not making announcements, etc they really have themselves to blame. there are developers like myself who are working on stuff when they can, but we do not want to make any big announcements as we know the general reaction

Re: [Audyssey] wayfare mud
Wayfare is a little different from some muds, sinse it doesn't have the standard character creation at logon that alter does, so the automated character setup invipmud doesn't work. the login page should tell you to request a new character or connect to an existing one. When you request, you have to request name to create a new character with that name, eg, I did request dark to create a character called dark. You then get E-mailed a password which you have to enter, then to login to your character you type connect character name, and then your password. hth.

Re: [Audyssey] wayfare mud
I hope so. The point people start mucking up my progress by attacking me is the point I stop playing, though while I'd be happier if it was utterly outlawed, I don't mind so long as people refrain from it so that I can craft and gather resources and the like in peace. Indeed my biggest problem now is finding where resources are on the map, sinse all the general information on where the different biome types are or even where the resources are is given as ascii maps, and slogging through room after room using survey isn't fun.

I’m not quite sure what I ought to do from here—the jobs list suggests I should get some food, is that essential? I have lots of fancy colonization gear, but am kind of unsure how to use it. Best, Zack.

Re: [Audyssey] wayfare mud
Well lindsay, I'm no expert as I've literally only been playing for about three hours. You are dropped on a planet with different environments. You can harvest resources from those which you then use to build various things from weapons and armor to buildings and vehicles and other crafting items to let you build more things. There are jobs you can do each day, and there are alien creatures that you can hunt down and fight, plus of course you get to explore and survey the planet and learn skills and such. I like the look of it thus far, it's very unique as far as muds go, and indeed functions rather more like a brwoser games in some ways, but with having a mud interface. one thing I particularly like, is when you examine an item or a location, you get told what commands can be used with it. So for example when I crafted myself a preffab shelter kit to build my first house, I was told the command was assemble. I'm dark on there, but as I said i'm still very much finding out about the game myself.

Re: [Audyssey] wayfare mud
I've not particularly heard of any pvp yet, there's nothing in the guides etc, and nobody has attacked me, so I assume it's relatively single player, but we'll see. If the pvp gets annoying I'll likely bow out.

Re: [Audyssey] wayfare mud
dark basically covered most of it, you either get dropped off at a random planet or you can join other players if you know where to find them from there you gather resources, craft armor, weapons, new crafting tools and even your own ships you can fly in to space and go through warp gates to other solar systems if you have a ship with a warp jump module, kill pirates, and kill other players if you're bored On 3/9/14, Lindsay Cowell wrote: > Could you tell me a bit more about it, It sounds good. > > Lindsay Cowell. > > -original message- > Subject: [Audyssey] wayfare mud > From: "dark" > Date: 09/03/2014 4:44 pm > > Hi. > > I don't know if anyone has seen this.
