I'm a critic

[Griphos]

I think the issue might be in the wide loop your use of the term "flaws" seems to throw. There are real flaws in a fair bit of the DLC. That's clear. But a lot of what I see you grumping...er...discussing seems like your personal preferences presented as flaws when not met. For instance, the K4 thread...

[kevhead]

The way they pitch the game is like in EA sports. If its in the game it's in the game. But that is merely an opinion. You have to take it for what it is. Some people swear by it some swear at it so you really Have to decide for yourself if you want to or how far you are willing to pursue it. It is what it is.

In the K4 thread I was looing rely closely and pointing out every error, witch alot of people took it in the way that I was bashing RSC. I was simply trying to post some constructive criticisim, meaning that if RSC sees it they will mostlikely say "wow we have made alot of non prototypical mistakes, we better fix this". Although on one ocasion I did post a forum bashing RSC a while back, but I later took it down after discovering that it was a problem with my laptop

While I understand your intentions, I think one of the biggest issues is whether or not RSC will ever see the posts that you even write. I do not have the statistical data on dev's visits to the board, but I could venture to guess they don't come on this site a lot. Maybe there is a better way to "help" them in their development of the game?

Serious rivet counters should go over and post on brand x. They love snarkey people over there. This place is for positive stuff.

Negative criticism is fine here, as long as it's done with taste and class.

M, you can call it criticism, or bug reporting. Doesn't matter. Like Ed said, just no personal attacks and keep it civil. I totally agree with that, and hope RSC reads what you post (you really didin't post any bugs in this Thread, BTW)

Most of the guys that put out the third party DLC are working hard to fix them to RW3 status, give them a bit of time. I know a few third party dev's have said "Nay Nay" to RW3, well it's their loss as well as ours. Not much we can do, my friend.

Oh, my I think most third party add on's are way better than what comes out of RSC.

Knew you were gonna say that about third party vs RSC on this thread! It was only a matter of time

We all have varying opinions, but I do have to admit this board is one of the more subdued ones that I go on a decent amount!

There's also the question of effectiveness. Posting criticism on this forum is effective because everyone can learn and teach something in the discussion, and DLC authors will read it and possibly make their stuff better. Complaining about bugs in the sim on this forum is useless because it accomplishes nothing. We're not RSC so we can't fix the bugs, and the only way to tell RSC is by e-mailing RSC support.

I read the boards often in my spare time over a coffee. I don't always log in tho.
However, if you have problems or concerns and you want them to be taken into account then please email support.
