shit shit shit

shit mods, shit playerbase, shit everything, they're advertised every single time because they're desperate for new blood naive to the fact that it's pretty much the worst game on DW

stay far far away

it's a damn shame, too, because it's a pretty cool premise and it's hard to find games that will allow giant robots

it's an AMAZING premise and its original iteration wasn't bad, but it was run into the ground by a combination of mods who had no business modding and zero quality control for applications, and I mean zero

also by Shaun and his ilk being massive fucking tittybabies which has pretty much made the game SRWUG: @utism Edition and ain't nobody got time for that

I can't remember which wank Shaun was involved in. was he the one who threw a fit because his employer wouldn't buy him shoes or something?

and I still find it amazing that as terrible and full of idiots as this game is, even they wouldn't put up with Dessa.

SRWUGA anon here. Yeah, we suck pretty bad in some important ways (i'm staying for the CR I have and because I can't get my giant robot fix in any other game). Curious though, keeping in mind that i'm not a mod, how could we make things less sucky?

- stop letting and anyone everyone through the barn door. i've seen third graders write better material than the apps you pass through, and some of them were blatantly plagiarized.

- put a cap on your OCs already. last time i checked they were running amuck and i'm sorry, but 99% of them were shit.

- don't tolerate hissyfits, from players or from mods. clamp down on bad behavior immediately. there was no reason for dessa to be rampaging for as long as she did.

- clean up your layout and organization, please. it takes two seconds to google for a decent journal layout and it's not hard to set up a navigable set of links.

- new mods. sorry again, current ones suck. vet these people better, don't just hand out the positions to whoever wants it.

- for gods' sake, SPELL AND GRAMMAR CHECK YOUR NPC POSTS. this only emphasizes the embarrassing standards the game has when the mods themselves can't fucking conjugate correctly half the time.

i actually don't loathe the game but i really thinking it's beyond saving at this point. regardless, those are my suggestions if you guys want to, as you said, make things less sucky.

I'm not a mod but i'll gadfly them to do these things, as I agree these all would improve the game. Wouldn't number 2 be solved by number 1 though?

Why. The fucking. AIM. Missions.

Seriously, this is what killed the game for me and why I left. I like the premise, I play a few characters that people keep trying to recruit into the game and I wouldn't care to come back if it weren't for the AIM missions.

I don't have the time to set aside in the evening to simply sit in an AIM chatroom for hours and hours, waiting for my turn to do some action or other. The bonus to journal/community RP like this is that it isn't in real time and one doesn't have to be present right then to get things done.

+1

I can do tags while I other shit. I don't want to be shackled to an AIM chat for an evening when I could be doing other stuff in between tags instead.

They're awful to try and read, too. The ones I looked at weren't formatted at all so they were just a huge wall of text.

How did this even become a thing for this game, anyway?

(Anonymous) 2013-03-07 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
They're an attempt to replicate the format of the video game it's based on. Whether that's a good idea or not isn't really my decision, as i'm not a mod. That said, they're optional.

I thought joining in the missions was the only way to participate in actual plot-related things.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-08 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, this is what I thought too. It used to be the only way you could participate in plot things back on LJ. If they have events or things like that, I'm sure you could do those. But the only way to actually take part in the battles was through the AIM missions.

the mod overstepped themselves in basically destroying certain landmarks/places/what have you that were vital to character canons without consulting the players first while on one of the AIM missions

and now they're begging for forgiveness as they bleed players left and right

don't foresee this game lasting much longer since everyone's finally realized they're on the Titanic and jumping ship, which will be a blessing at this point, as the game seriously needs to be put out of its misery
