Since OOO probaby, and most likely, (definitely) has the guns ready, they should just push it out and let us play with it already. I mean, rather than an accumulated 'gunner update', would it be better to just release it as it goes? Kinda like the the so called "Arcade Redux part 1"... we should have "Gunner Update part 1..." (And it will never have a part 2 teehee).

Discuss.

Hmm, yeah? Maybe?

A good compromise if you think about it. That way the players get to have the new content they so crave for and it'll give the devs first -hand look into where the balance issues are at.

A good way to build hype would be to release one line of guns at a time.

Test server. Releasing unfinished content is a terrible idea.

I said something in the lines of...

Why not give the opportunity to people who paid the game to go into the preview test to smash some tortodrone with you? Even if the AI isn't ready, just make us bash brainless Tortodrone and we'll be super happy. Plus you could use some feedback on the guns before they go live... no?

On another Thread... and I think OOO should see it more than once to really think about it... also thank you for making this Thread to push even more... because it would really be nice rather than JUST A PICTURE!!!!!!!

Gasp! Spoilers in that quote you had for the new guns! Not that I didn't know them, but still.

And I'm sad now because OCH can't be treated as a payment to do the testing server.

@ sandwich after how long it isn't considered as a spoil? Because I knew the name for at least 2 months already... IDK about you but it ain't a spoil for me anymore... nor for anybody who was curious enough to google 2-5 mins to find them...

And since we are on the topic of spoiler, Snape killed Dumbledore.

*GASP*

Edit: Don't you taste the cake by licking the spatula? I know I do :)

Well, it depends on how rusty the spatula is, and if I had a tetanus shot recently, current medical plans, proximity to decent hospital, etc.

I believe anything not said explicitly by OOO is considered a spoiler within the forums. At least one thread has been deleted because the OP had spoilers.

Well I already pointed out on another Thread a bunch of information about how many 5* guns there are and what lines they belong to accordingly and I haven't heard anything from the CM or devs about it... so... IDK even them don't consider it as spoil anymore I guess... Or don't read the forum... hmmmm...

Problem: Almost all gear

Problem: Almost all gear released since Snarby has been framed inside new missions or events. No new items have ever spontaneously appeared at Basil or the Hall of Heroes, the only exception I can think of being the Shard bombs.

That being said, we have no idea how a big pile of new guns will be introduced, seems too many for boss rewards so perhaps they will just show up one day through recipe vendors like the Sharb bombs did.
At the very least they could give us a few fixes while we wait - eg Obsidian Carbine proves they know how to fix the Antigua charge wall bug, but no other Antigua has been fixed yet -_-

/e senses the same pressures Sega went up with when trying to work on Sonic 2006 and being pressured by fans wanting it to come out now.

In all hindsight, do you want the same trainwreck as Sonic 2006?

Preview Testing some unfinished feature may not result in SK dying... I know it may sound crazy but I think OOO will survive from that...

We are not talking about real launch, just test server... and... testing new weapons.... and how they feel in the fray...

I just wanna play SK but I don't have any motivation to actually play SK. I have nothing to do. I could do vana endlessly for another life or two but I will only be able to heat 1 or 2 items anyways... and those 1 or 2 items are tied to the gunner update. So I'm in a perpetual loop of boringness and seeks other games on the side (Loadout will be Free to Play January 31st so.... I might head over there for a while)

Weapons are pretty much

Weapons are pretty much ready, their view models, their names are all there. The only suspected missing features are probably the armor everyone is so worked up about. Oh? So new guns could potentially destroy PvP? I guess there is no need for new PvE content. I read your thread, ardent, but hey, I am not pestering them to work faster. I am suggesting that, since the guns are ready, many of us know what the guns are, OOO might as well give it to us first before releasing whatever tortodrone/new armor they are still currently working on.

What I meant to say is that, OOO should just release whatever they have right now, give it time to settle before releasing the next wave of updates. We want to reduce the hype and pressure of waiting for the gunner update, so let's just give us what they got. We are the end consumers, we are going to have those guns eventually, just hiding it from us ain't gonna do any of us good. What's the backfire in releasing the guns now than to release it later?

Why not release the Phantamos, Gilded Griffin, Winter Grave and Grim Repeater now to give us a little insight and then release the rest later?

"It's like asking for your dinner early when it's just partially done."

But if you're eating out, you usually get something to hold you up while you wait. Phantamos, Gilded Griffin, Winter Grave and Grim Repeater.

So they did modify my post and they dd warned me in-game about spoils...

But OOO face it, we know all about those guns except dmg output... I can list all the details of all the guns and their dmg type.
