@Hala
Dont dick ride lol.. its not cute and im just speaking for the vets who are sitting out because of these actions its the truth obviously if the main vets or players who've been playing and making the competitiive for a while now sit out because of these changes and actions done by our new owner obviously its a issue their.. Even wild will admit the challenge has dropped so dramatically its like nobody to even fight for a last battle or a fam to worry about.. but eh what do i know i've only been playing this game for like 17 years!! stupid fucking cunts lol.. with really no breaks or years off.. so i think i know enough..

Best argument ever: your like a broken record, NO YOU'RE LIKE A broken record, NO YOU'RE LIKE A BROKEN RECORD!
Anyways, I played my first round in 2000, so I'm not sure what vets you are talking for, but it's not me.
All you do is complain, it's what you're doing now, and it's what you've always been doing. Pie is actually making an effort making this game into something that might attract new players. Will everyone always like it, probably not, some people will always think they know better, or it was better before. But I definitely feel that thing were not a single bit better when Stefan was running the game. Pie actually has a plan, which is something that was never in this game before.
I like the new map things. Mass exploring ftw! The Dots are a bit hard to click on when zoomed out.
I would welcome tougher competition any day, believe me. Winning like this is nice, but not as good of a feeling as winning against tougher comp, and not nearly as fun.
Little fish eat Big fish:
I'm not competition, but he quit this round because of meee
Cheers, I'll take that!
hala plz stop talking if u are a vet ur a crappy one.. someone who loves to run his mouth.. and no I'm not talking for u.. I'm talking for real vets like pitbull and me and others who have put in a lot of rounds and time and effort not someone whose played five years and name isn't even mentioned.. just be quiet..
Cuss swear downtalk say your better I'm th best you suck. No wonder no one wants to play. Death you think your helping calling ppl cunts everyone here needs to grow up it's a joke everytime I check the forums minus a few
I would have assumed the use of "Hole" rather than "Whole" was actually an attempt at being clever. I'm not sure that is the case here.
Again, from a marketing standpoint the fact that the vets don't like all the changes is great! The old game wasn't attracting new players, the only way to do that was to change stuff up. Even when changes were made new players weren't attracted, whenever there was an influx of players it was from going back to the old mailing list. Sure Pie could cater to the 30 people that want the game back the way it was, but the only way he'd get a good roi would be to charge those 30 people ~$50 a month to play.
Changing the status quo is always a risk, but imo it's the only decision that makes sense in this case.
I suppose so.. eh do whateva the game is pretty much dead I don't see any revival no time soon anyway

Point missing in this is that the people crying loudest now about all the changes, are the same people crying loudest before that the game sucked and all kinds of stuff had to be changed.
Nothing can remain the same and survive. Same goes for IC.
mofo if u tell someone about something that needs to be change and u change the shit nobody asked u to change that's pretty fucking retarded.. hey my toilet wont flush.. or no worry mr. we have install a new AC just for u.. but wtf about the damn toilet..

To me this seems like "nobody" really means "not me". I'm sure pie appreciates the feedback and would love to have some other coders on board. You should consider donating and submitting some code perhaps.

It's more like if you were living in an apartment complex and over the years all the toilets stopped flushing for all of the tenants.
One day a fellow tenant gets fed up with the situation, and buys the building from the previous landlord. He decides that the tenants deserve better, and just so happens to be a plumber. What great news!
The bad news is, the plumber discovers that all the pipes in the building are leaking, and the toilets not flushing is just a small symptom of a much bigger problem.
The plumber technically could get the toilets to flush by having each apartment's toilet drain the used toilet water into the bathtub. On the surface this "fixes" the problem but it's just hiding the real issue. The plumber, being a professional plumber, knows better. He installs a port-o-potty outside for everybody to use while he works on the building's pipes.
You don't care about any of that because you don't like using a port-o-potty. As a person who's been using a toilet for years, you consider yourself to be an expert in how toilets function and what exactly needs fixing despite not being a professional plumber yourself.
"Just make the water go away when I flush. It's simple, why is this taking you so long?" you say to the plumber one day, as the plumber quietly nods.
You proceed to tell all the other tenants that the plumber is an idiot and if he only listened to you, the toilets would be fixed already. You've been pissing and taking shits for years, and even though everybody else in the apartment has too, you consider yourself to be one of the most knowledgeable experts on the matter and make sure to constantly remind everybody.
The plumber continues to work, taking a break from dirty pipes once in awhile to let his fellow tenants know what's going on. He hears the familiar sound of you yelling "Just make the water go away when I flush! I already told you how to fix it!" and sighs. Some of the other tenants look at the plumber and shrug. Everybody has a good laugh at the absurdity of the situation.
The plumber eventually takes his brother, Luigi, on an adventure to save Princess Peach. They build some karts along the way, and everybody lives happily ever after.
Meija!!! hobopants!!! where u been hiding X(

OMG This is the most epic post in the IC forums for years! Not in the least because the metaphore is so freakishly spot on.
Probably IC Death -our legendary guru-warlord-master-galatic overlord-brother of xenu-breaker of chains-first of his name-blabla- thinks I'm dickriding now, and we all know he knows best.
As you know Pie, I'm happy with the work you put in IC, and every day, the game is getting a bit better. Thanks ![]()
I warned you all. The Void has come'a'reaping. No sector will be left behind. 0,0 will prevail. None can resist the inevitable, the inenviable, the inedible. The Void is all consuming - it feasts equally on success and misfortune. It can never be satisfied.
I'm just givin ICD a hard time. =P If he can dish it, he can take it.
His heart's in the right place though, and in the end players aren't gonna really care about the details to be honest. What matters is that the game is engaging enough to be worth peoples' time.
We'll get there. It won't be easy, but doing something right rarely is.
Pie man u know i love u and u know i've always wanted u to build the game cause i know u can do great things.. but still i think the community needs both positive and negative feed back as a person whose invested 10 years + into a game it heart breaking to see it like this.. u say its for the rebuild and everything and im all for that but u opened multi gals and shit after the real players and common sense players knew this would be a bad issue as it allows players to half ass more im not doing good in sn i'll focus on mw.. oh wait my fams dead in mw im just gonna work on andro or whateva.. u get people who arent puttin their all into that 1 specific fam.. thats my biggest issue other then the map setup honestly. but hey what do i know right im just saying its good for change but some things u changed u should of left the same or atleast gave a well explaination why u changed them.. making systems smaller bad idea. to me the map setup has been shitty for a min now.. what we've done is dumb down IC remember when u had to actually search systems for intruders and stuff some map implentments have made some of the ops pointless to have u know.. just think on some of the shit u change before u do it.. look at the pros to it and the cons.. this is the lowest amount of players i've seen playing IC ever and its like on the ledge ready to jump off into the cliff.. and that mass email for returning players aint gonna cut it
ICD we've had this conversation more times than I can remember.
I appreciate your feedback generally, and your perspective is valuable but please do remember that you're not the only person who's been playing this game for 10+ years. Other players are not any less "real players" because they disagree with you.
I hear you and I understand your reasoning, and I keep your feedback in mind just as I do with everybody else.
Onward we go.
Have a snickers because you're not you when you're hungry
Really enjoying watching ICD post literally the same exact thing over and over.
I don't think you're a very good representative of what a typical target player is ICD. It's great that you put so much effort into the game when you play actively, but the vast majority of people just aren't going to put forth the effort that you do. WOW is a good standard example, over the years they've made it much more friendly to casual players which drives vets crazy, but it is absolutely better long term for the game.
