And no its not another topic about sk being bad or something, I always wondered what devs would do different to make this game more enjoyable. Share your opinion with everyone if u want. (Also lets look at steam, welp 313 players online. That means something ? I know it might be early for some players but whyyyyy.)
What this game lacks.

im vohtarak, call me by that name
The idea of this Thread is the same as the entire suggestions subforum, look there instead of making a new thread for it

The idea of this thread is to discuss what the developers of Three Rings are considering to be lacking in this game. If not then it is now.
I'm sure Three Rings has enough artists and designers to think up of stuff. However, I doubt they are ample on the programmers.

we need more of whoever makes the large updates except artists, to make them go faster. I dont think its programmers, because the guns already worked on the test server ages before they were released.

you are all wrong
I think the reason why people are leaving is simply because they have been playing for like 3 years and now want to try something else. It's not all because of the lack of stuff, its the lack of a commercial. I know that we should be keeping our numbers low because our servers just can't handle it yet without a bunch of lag problems, but atleast it will do some good by atleast bringing a couple of thousand people.

@redgalaxy
That's completely off topic, there is no place in this thread that asks why people are leaving

@Oohnorak
All I'm basically saying is sk is lacking a commercial.

Its Vohtarak, not Oohnorak.
SK doesn't have enough money to do a commercial. and SEGA doesn't even care what happens to this game or not.

For goodness sake Oohnorak.
Threads will be made that have already been made before, and they will also derail whether you like it or not. Nothing you can do will prevent them from stopping a discussion, or moving the thread.
On another note, I don't think you know how to successfully forum protest either. Making more threads about the same thing will actually make your point of protest more seen, rather than a mega-thread. Although it does it in a rather devious way, it brings more attention to the subject via multiple threads, rather than a giant thread started by a frequent forumer.

But is it enough to get Three Rings' attention?

Angels!
Spiral Knights needs more angel stuff.
I like angelic stuff.

There's a reason why I went inactive for a reaaaaaaaaaaaly long time; there isn't much to do.
Basically, OOO has been focusing on new costumes and gear more than the missions itself (besides new event levels). There is no motivation for me to play anymore. Making new gear, does not count towards new content according to me. I think OOO could focus more on actual content (new missions) than just raw new gear and costumes.
"(Also lets look at steam, welp 313 players online. That means something ? I know it might be early for some players but whyyyyy.)"
That probably just means that 313 players WITH Steam are playing.

I'm surprised it got moved.
Yes, this post had no means to suggest anything new, it was made to just discuss your thoughts about current sk state. But since it's a suggestion thread I will share my word what this game actually lacks.
1) It lacks communication with GMs, just look at few games coming up (not going to share their names because no, you can pm me ign to know more about them). Yes, I mean it. Even making posts with hopes that 1 of the GMs answer will do nothing.
2) Money. Oh yes worst thing for every company to worry about. I understand OOO might have some problems with it but that doesn't mean to just throw costume after costume and bring old events that are... old. Maybe in future we will see a huge comeback of this game. (hopes are real).
3) It lacks creativity. Dunno where I'm going with it but all you can do in this game is sit and do FSC orrrr rarely see some parties do T3 arcade. Some ppl trade 24/7 there's nothing wrong with it, I like to chat with some ppl during my free time in Haven. Real point of this part is, there's nothing to do after u have everything related to your loadout, then all u can do is PvP and stated above 'till u get bored enough but for real I made like 6 months ago post about taming system that I gave up on, some suggestions made here looks great but we won't see them probably... sadly...
4) (This is just my personal idea) I always though sk could use more open world features, dunno. All I know is instead of new missions, events we could use something to do in free time etc. (Not including trading, PvPing etc.) Something new for sure that would blow our minds.
And yes when I stated 313 players I got a bit too late. It was 300 when I was making post and it was '300' movie reference but dunno which part would fit in that case hehe.

Suggestions do suggestions things
Communication is sad because the rare times we have communication with people it's around updates, and the even rarer times we have communication with a developer people get mad at them for not being "professional" enough.
It's sad. I'd love to have more talking happen between players and the developers/game masters, but we don't really see it. :( Even if it's just little conversations, like an AMA with Harry Mack again! Or perhaps we just get a little chat with a game master in gremlin chatter? Something that makes the people behind the game seem more "alive", as right now they feel rather robotic and that makes me sad.
As for content... Content is coming it just takes time. I won't say I know what's going on behind the scenes right now at Three Rings. Maybe one of the developers lost a cousin and is taking time off to grieve, or maybe they've been working all night on the update and a myriad of bugs keeps hitting them in the face. The only thing I do know (and by know I mean assume very heavily) is that everyone at Three Rings is doing something. We just don't see it because it's not out yet. The last thing you want to do during a 9-5 is nothing. However, it would be great if we could get some tortodrone-esk teasers.
Creativity ending comes mostly from people attempting to grind rather than have fun. What's the bad part is that grinding in this game used to be fun, but with the end-game not having the grind be fun anymore it's kinda disheartening.

That's true.
That might hit everyone, worst part is that hits sk community as well. Most community turned into... well... crap, and end-game content was supposed to be fun. It used to be before all that fancy sets came along to just ruin balance (not saying about anything being bad or op, well game without op things is not a game). We're trying to offer OOO help, but no one answers the call. Some ppl here knows bits'n'tricks about programming and making art. That would speed up process of new things coming around (probably). Big hopes and best wishes from me for OOO and sk for future.

Why would you think it meant something?
