<div class="IPBDescription">...targeted towards Zunni</div> with the weekend almost ending, a lot of b5 games have been played, and a lot of threads have been flamed. i was just wondering what the dev team thinks of b5's first weekend. i know it's kinda early to be asking, but i wanna hear from someone "on the inside" instead of all the people complaining about the new release. were these reactions anticipated or are they showing light onto somethings that were overlooked?

    Not wanting to jump the gun on Zunni but....

    People always do. No matter what you do, no matter what you change, good or bad, the first thing people invariably do is come on here and say how bad it is. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    as with every version. Everyone initially flames every single change that was listed. After a few months, only the pressing issuses stay un-challanged and un-reasoned.

    like the fact that NS is not good for pubs and this beta did little to address it?

    every release of any game splits the community 3 ways;

    those who love it
    those who hate it
    those who don't care

    generally it's the ones who hate it who are most out spoken and feel that they have been... 'cheated' out of a better game

    but this is always the case - such a big hype builds up around a single patch however it was made clear several times that this version was principally to address bug issues and not to make significant changes to game play

    well it is more or less a <b>fact</b> as we all know that NS was balanced with 6v6 in mind. now how many of the pub servers out there run a total of 12 slots only? hmm? <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I would say I like the update... almost every thing thats in it is pretty good.

    Its some things that werent adressed and needed to be imo that frustrates the hell outa me <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> It was just dissapointing for me that, as shanks said "significant changes to game play" were not made

    Although I don't always agree with some changes I just get on and play the game. The game still pisses over other MP mods (and games) from the greatest of heights.
