First seasonal event...

Felix_Xenophobe · #1 11-06-2011, 11:48 PM

...since 2002 to be canceled. I was hoping GK would hold out to 2012 at least for some epic symbolism but it looks like it's done its time now.

Discuss?

As I said in game, Debug is down right now, so there's nothing the staff (including Tig) can do. Stefan needs to fix something that only he can fix, so we're stuck until he does that. The problem's been around for months now and he hasn't fixed it yet, so I'm not too optimistic.

Sounds like an easy way out.
Also whatever you massed in game should probably be posted officially in the GK section of the forums. Since this is a problem that needs to be adressed as well as reaching out to every member of the community instead of just the 20~ people online at the time.

Maybe, but regardless of how it sounds there's no way I can work on Halloween or anything right now. I'd suggest contacting Stefan directly if you're upset about the lack of updates since that's the only course of action that's likely to help. Tig and I can only bug Stefan so much about it.

Can you adress the last part of my post as well? I feel like you owe that to the community.

I don't owe anything to the community. My first post in this thread hit the same points as the mass so posting it would be redundant. However, to humor you:

Mass message:
Stefan has apparently shut down Debug because of some bug in the gserver code that only he can fix. So, we can't release Halloween at all, probably for another few weeks or months if Stefan's past speed is anything to judge by.

Sorry about that guys. Feel free to mention to Stefan that we need Debug back as soon as possible.

Its now shut down ? Because I can still see it on Server Tab (RC) with 1 Player on it. I dont get this really...

I honestly think everyone needs to stop purchasing gelats. We are paying for a server that hasn't been improved in over a year.

I dont like you. But I agree.

We have confirmation that incompetence led to the Halloween failure this year. I applaud you Kale for being a man and stepping up and saying it just wasn't ready.

lightdamage did the work @ halloween graphics which will be used either way.

and uhh, yea, we fu**ed up. Should have never overhyped it if I didn't know for certain it'd get done.

Hahaha, atleast your server isn't being intergrated as some dumb minigame for Era.

The server itself is up but the NPC-server isn't. Majin or anybody else who doubts this is welcome to contact Tig or Stefan directly, or someone like Felix, Nathaniel, Alarid, or any of the PWA who can login to the server and see for themselves that it does not work.

The one player online is Stephen. There is no NPC-server online. Attempts to start it fail.

Kale wasn't involved in the development; he can't script, make levels, or make graphics. Voltry did do a ton of work and we are still planning on using it. We have several pages worth of plans which we still intend to follow if Debug is fixed in the near future. If not we'll adapt them for some other event.

I don't know why you're acting like I've denied that it's not ready; see the posts I made in the other thread and the mass I sent out on Friday. My plan was to finish it over the weekend since I don't have any schoolwork to do. The event hasn't been cancelled as Felix fallaciously claimed, it's just been delayed since there is no way for me to work on it right now.

You can claim we overhyped it, but I'm not going to apologize to any of you because you want me to prioritize an online game with an average playercount of 10 over my own life.
