Why? Because this isn't news. The entire article contains utterly nothing of substance yet it's being presented as news. It isn't. Two community members go to Relic's office and tell us Stuff is Happening.
So?
I like Napalm and Dusty. I have nothing against them. But as a forum member I see no benefit in blowing smoke up arses for no reason.
When there's something to report you should report it. When there isn't, you shouldn't. Simple.
By doing so you simply look... *panglossian*
Edit - Please show me where the insult is. The criticism is mild, or does the moderation policy now extend to anything that doesn't constitute obsequious agreement?
This all stems from SEGA I am willing to bet. This "Brand Manager" guy seems to tie everyones hands up and kicks them off a bridge. I still talk to Bobby, I think not only was he amazing at his job because he A played the game, but B understood and knew how to handle trolls. But I think with THQ going tits up it gave him more freedom to YOLO his way to what he wanted to do for the community and with it. Now its all draconian NDA's that are not helping anyone and guess what people are leaving because of it.
Coming from the pre golden age of COH2s launch before Bobby lost his job we had incredible communication with Relic. Now... we have ...? I don't blame Cynthia, I blame SEGA and its assanine handling of this franchise. In addition to mistakes made by Relic.
