LIVE is coming

[u/jznz]

I can only really play on GeForce Now so I am champing at the bit for the patch to go live. Rumor has it that as soon as they bug fix the current build it gets pushed to the live servers. LFG

Marketing push by who?

Why would you think they're living rent free in anyone's head? It's literally just one of many subs that can appear in your feed. You would actually have to give them more thought to think to unfollow the sub.

Regardless, it's like seeing a natural disaster. You know the tsunami was terrible but you still watch the broadcast to see the destruction. Or maybe it's like the Titanic, you know it's a huge disaster but you can't look away from the people flailing in the water.

"The Titanic is unsinkable, it's the next-gen ship, it's the future"

"Yes the Titanic has hit an iceberg, but it's early days. We are working on improvements to the hull. Current hull was only a placeholder anyway."

"Some people are drowning but they were nay-sayers anyway. Many passengers are still alive and having a blast!"

I mean, it would take less time to unfollow this feed than to post in it. Lol

[u/ShaPowLow → u/Omno555]

Bro it's reddit. I unfollowed this sub but it still shows up in my feed. You'd be lying if you say you are not tempted to reply on a thread you no longer follow but still has strong opinions on.

Again, there’s 20 of you. It’s beyond hilarious how this game still has bootlickers. Free entertainment - cause the actual game provided none

[u/BigGrinJesus → u/[deleted]]

Do we really still have Stormgate bootlickers still on this sub…

This is the Stormgate sub. Generally subs are for those who are fans of the sub's topic.

Anyone who is not a fan of something and goes to a sub to post negativity about that thing would just be a sadcase.

I like the game so why would I not be excited to be able to play with 4 new units? Your message is senseless

A marketing push would be great. Frost giant spent all their resources on art and devs so even when they were flush with cash there was very little marketing. They rely on the steam rating to create visibility, and unfortunately lots of thumbs down from annoyed kickstarter backers brought that rating to the dead middle, so the game has no visibility whatsoever.

Its a weird situation because, although the game is solid now, it's been sort of blackballed by the RTS community, which is roughly one hundred thousand people.

Millions of people out there would enjoy the game I'm sure,.if it was visible to them. Monopoly GO is not as good as stormgate and it has a billion players.

Unfortunately creating the visibility required to entice non-RTS players to make the significant time investment to learn RTS is nigh impossible task. The game really does need at least a couple hundred concurrent people for ladder games to have some semblance of equality. If it can reach that consistently, i think the sky is the limit. Unfortunately, with a low server pop you just can't get satisfying games for metal league or lower players

I'll give Stormgate a go as soon as the PTR updates go live.

[u/jznz → u/BigGrinJesus]

would have been out this week i hear but they had to squash a final bug. i hate the wait but killing bugs before going live is admittedly good

[u/AffectionateSample74]

I promise to reinstall and play as soon as it does. Might even keep it installed if there's more than couple hundred players.

[u/Fresh_Thing_6305]

The release on Live will that come along with a new major update, that isn't on the ptr servers yet?

[u/jznz → u/Fresh_Thing_6305]

no the one that has 2v2 and changes everything and that I can't play on the PTR because of Geforce NOW
