[Christmas]?

Well it's rather obvious I'm doing this for a reason. The reason I will not share, however.

Well, I'm gonna sign up, evenif this doesn't turn out to be a little bonus, and turns out to be just a head count. FLS is fun, and I still feel kinda bad about kicking you off the CSO team. But mainly because FLS is fun.

I watch this game but it's so hard to like it.

I mean it's very well-defined and structured and there's even enough gimmicks but I just can't feel comfortable with playing when I feel everyone's reaction times are probably better than mine because I don't have a grip on the human element

[Saltonara]

You're saying you don't like it because of the reaction aspect of the game? So basically, it's resentment that comes from lack of skill at the current moment?

Well I'm planning on making a tutorial mode in the Christmas update, and single player modes in the future. In those single player modes you'll be able to sharpen up your skills and such.

I thought you didn't play this game Skele

[Dusty]

Well, hey, we game designers gotta look out for each other, right? ...Right?

[SkeleDude]

I don't like playing with people so I'm waiting for AI.

I dunno, it's just something feels wrong to me about what is otherwise an TBS being interrupted by bursts of complex trigger-twitching. It just feels unnatural. I guess it's just me.

AI is going to fuck the player so bad or seem horribly slow if you don't hit a perfect balance in timing, so I feel that as it is the game is really handicapping its feasibility as a single-player package as well.

I'd sign up for the community but really I'm an introvert and social situations are a chore for me, plus achievements are useless to a friendless bastard like me if they don't have a palpable reward. So the only reason I'd join is if I really, really wanted to play FLS. I want to try FLS, see how it goes, offer my worthless dime-a-dozen opinion, but I don't want to commit. I hate commitment. That's why I really don't feel like dying just yet.

Eh, care for any further useless asides to bog down your thread and cloak all useful information you could have otherwise garnered from that post?

Well I tried doing something that I haven't seen yet. But hey, if you don't like it, that's fine. I can't really expect everyone to like it.

AI is going to fuck the player so bad or seem horribly slow if you don't hit a perfect balance in timing, so I feel that as it is the game is really handicapping its feasibility as a single-player package as well. Actually, I do have an idea on how to make that work, and the reaction times of the AI would be configurable. They wouldn't do everything at once either.

That's why I really don't feel like dying just yet. The Community isn't actually going to be meant to be "omg mega super social" thing. It's more meant to keep track of stats, offer things that players who don't sign up will not get, keep up to date with everything, participate in tournaments (which I won't do until we get many more people), etc.

So you're the first one to openly say that you don't like FLS. Oh well, it's not like everyone who tries it was gonna like it anyway.

I do admit though it IS very different, and I'd like to like it. But I guess I just don't.

I'd still be happy to help test it if anyone's ever got a spare chance to play at the same time as me.

[Saltonara]

So I've got out of that "fuck around" mood that I get in every so often and proceeded to start working on this again at a fair rate.
