It was simply incredible how many legit critiques of the new update that MikeT was shooting down in the discussion thread with "look man, we're all in the same boat, nobody's at a disadvantage." Regardless how relevant it was to any given point.

especially because the most salient critique is the 4m restriction staying in place meaning that, no, we're not in the same boat

No, you see, most worlds (read: not tard worlds) already have most, if not all, of their owners at 0 advance or close to it, so nobody is at a disadvantage to anybody else. And if you think otherwise, you just want to whine or want special treatment (read: you also play in a tard world).

I'm not a fan of the 4M restriction but I'm not going to torpedo the entire update in advance just because of it. This game is badly in need of some changes and I'd like to see where they go with it.

My favorite part was some post where it was like some explanation and then a phrase like "Well I am done because MikeT is just going to argue with all of us" and the next post was MikeT ripping that post apart.


If HBD/WIS want to fix there games, then hire game designers. Do not just let the community decide how to make/balance the game.
