Fanboys are responsible for Trions layoffs

[Lupis Volk]

Yes quite amusing. What about Tomb Raiders layoff or the people who make KOA?

God it has to be awesome to live in complete ignorance of the state of the industry and global economy as a whole. Hold on to your youth man, it just doesn't last long enough.

When you go to watch your school basketball team play, or your favourite football team, or your kid's soccer team, do you boo? Ever? Or do you cheer them on, give that extra bit of encouragement. Your support gives them that extra burst of energy, the determination to be all they can be.

It's like sitting at the side of your kid's soccer match and saying loudly, repeatedly, and in full hearing of the team on the pitch, "Look at them fail at soccer, my god, even their grandmothers could play a better game. Oh nice one, Johnny you little sh-. Way to drop the f-ing ball. I wasted five bucks on fuel and you can't even win a f-ing game? You owe me five bucks, mister, and you'll pay."

The people you deride as fanboys want Defiance to be the best it can be. They also understand that humans aren't machines, that humans can get depressed, and that depressed workers are unproductive.

Or maybe they're just nice people.

Either way, the kind of relentless hate some people seem intent on delivering under the flag of "tough love" strikes as somewhat insincere or at the very least points to a misunderstanding with regards to incentives.

anybody remembers when vince young got the big boo, then cried about it? ha good times

Trion will not be a game studio in 6 months if fanboys continue.

#fact

yeah, you're right, it completely drowned out the 10:1 posts of people who didn't like it

This is the funniest stuff ever written.

Players like the OP so badly want to see the sky fall...but will sue the same sky because they were hit with a falling cloud.

I will not be wrong, feel free to bump this in 6 months if I am.

Game studios do not layoff if they are doing well.

yes they do. layoffs often happen when there's not enough work to go around. if they need to focus on code for a few weeks, there's no point paying artists to sit around doing nothing.

Fanboys are responsible for the layoffs at Tron and if they do not change their attitude they will be responsible for the closure of the entire studio.

Why?

It's simple.

Take for example this weeks tv show tie in content.

Fanboys are praising the 30min worth of content and how awesome and epic it was! While the rest of us were very disappointed.

Let's be realistic your average gamer who does not visit these forums is not going to be entertained with 30min worth of content none of which is unqiue. So what happens? They slowly begin to play less and less as there is nothing new to offer. Then bam you fanboys come on the forum and praise Trion for a wonderful job and they think what they created was enough to satisfy and continue upon their mediocre path.

Maybe you just still don't understand let me explain again...

Blindly supporting anything and everything Trion does with Defiance not help this game.

You may call me a troll or you may call me negative but I want to push Trion to make the best game possible. They need honest feedback and we will NEVER see improvements if you keep up the fanboy behavior.

It's okay to like the game but not pushing the developer to create and deliver upon a better experience will get us all no where.

Mark my words this forum has some of the biggest fanboy behavior I have ever witnessed. Defiance is a game that is in POOR condition right now and fanboys can keep hiding the fact and kill Defiance the game and Trion the game studio.

Or you start being honest and pushing Trion to actually improve the quality of this game and watch them prosper.

The choice is yours...

kill or help Trion?

I'm far from a fanboy, but I thought this week's episode missions were fun and enjoyable.

It seems some crybabies aren't happy unless they have something to whine about.

If you want to cry about something kid, how about something that is rather important? Like the major bugs and glitches that have yet to be addressed and have broken the game and ruined it? If you're going to whine about something, whine about that.

This is a non-issue.

Yeah the crucial point is what the layoffs were for......but companies don't tend to publicly announce specific reasons too often.
For now everyone should just wait and see what they say in a few days or so.

If you for one second think that Trion even considers the opinions expressed on the forums as anything more than worthless drivel then you may be severely ******ed.
