Let the community create content if you have no intention to.

So here's a great idea to breath some life into this game, open it to modders and other members of the community who are more than happy to create content for you.
OOO has shown clear signs they have no serious intention to bring us any content of any value. Constantly they promise stuff they never deliver on like for instance: here comes the gunner update, or there will be an arcade redux, and the oldest and goldest WE WILL OPEN THE CORE. Nearly 4 years and jack $#!^. So since they either dont have the time, manpower or resources just open the game up for modding. Create map tiles and gives all the goodies we need to make our own levels. You can create and entire gate that is simply user generated material. You can keep your weapons and armor balances and waste time never doling those out but in the meantime the end gamers can get some actual end game worthy content.
Cause to be honest the current end game content was great..................3 years ago when I first reached the end game. But now its a total yawn and grind fest. I would love to still be playing this game but its boring. It amazes me to play with players who have grinded this game as much as I have and yet they dont have every inch memorized. And its not like I memorized it on purpose.......well at first I did for all the difficult parts, but now I got EVERYTHING memorized. I can nearly run half the levels blindfolded. Its the same boring rinse and repeat bull$#!^ all the time.
So seriously, if its manpower you lack I guarantee you if you allow the community to generate levels and content you'll be up to your @$$es with content for years and maybe some of the older (BORED) players will come back and play the game. Not to mention a whole new crowd of players who will join and play JUST to create content. Seriously its a no brainer.

Give me one reason not to believe that both of you are the same person using a different character.

I am not going to bother with a ridiculous question like that! Work it out yourself...

It really is, but this has been suggested many times. (Search Spiral Knights Level Editor) The Gunner Update is in dev, I mean, OOO is a small team, there's only so much they can do. But being able to (Probably using the Steam Workshop :P) upload Missions, Weapons, Costumes and Armor would be awesome. All that would be needed is a small team to test the uploaded items if they get popular enough. The Promos are only existing so that OOO can generate income while they work on the update. There was a Beta Test for the Gunner Update not to long ago too. So don't despair about no more updates other than promos. This does need to be added.

I only came to this thread for one thing
horse, steam only content is a really #&*$ move
and you should use common sense to know that

Flat out bashing the developers does not pertain to giving the player access to the level editor. I don't think you're going to get your way if you verbally harass the developers, regardless of whether your "harassment" is completely justified.
Or my way. I've been wanting for this for a long time now.

In my OPINION, the lack of a proper answer in the "second" poster's second post is very telling.
That said, I acknowledge that user-made content would be a VERY welcome addition to the game, because the OP has a valid point, if worded somewhat passive-aggressively.

so is that where you think of like how minecraft does it or what ever
The truth is that these forums are bursting with activity. Why? Because Three Rings sold their soul to promos. And the reason is because of the fanboys/girls since they 'protect' Three Rings when people make threads like this. They are the reason Three Rings do not put any effort in this game. Thanks for the awesome suggestion. I hope this does not catch their attetion if ya know what I mean...
