No love from MUSE on these Boards?
Echoez:
I thought this thread was about MUSE not posting the facebook/twitter material here.
Is it realy that hard to just post the important stuff here as well? As a player that already uses the damn official forum I think that I personaly shouldn't have to visit external sites at LEAST for the upcoming game update announcements and or info related to them.
geggis:
Yeah it is, but you mentioned the game losing players as a result of the lack of information on updates when I don't think that's the root cause of that particular issue (besides, I think Muse do a better job of keeping players in the loop than many other developers out there). It's tangential but related.
I think if you head over to Facebook Echoez, you'll see that there aren't many (if any) big announcements that haven't been mentioned on the forums or the front page somewhere. A lot of the updates on Facebook are just nuggets and yeah, they could certainly appear on these forums or the front page but I get the impression this place is more for solid News and Announcements rather than PR confetti, which social media kind of lends itself to.

https://twitter.com/GOIOnline
https://www.facebook.com/GunsOfIcarusOnline
So no biggie if you don't 'use' twitter/facebook. You can still see everything. If one's hatred for Facebook/Twitter is so intense that they can't even view a public page on the sites, that sounds like an entirely different issue ;)

I concur. Why reproduce the effort of mirroring the updates on these highly visible and accessible sites when you can check them out yourself at the click of a button, or hell, the tap of a screen? The forum isn't that nice to use on your tablets or phones either.
Garou:
Muse is putting their efforts into making the game better. I don't think it's so big a deal to meet them halfway by occasionally clicking a twitter link.

I probably worded that incorrectly then, it's the lack of content in general, not realy the lack of info, but lack of info can harm a good deal of more casual players that don't want to get involved for good but still spend some time with the game. I've seen it happen, lack of info about important things and updates slowly, but steadily, kills off any hype the game might have.

It's their game, I'm not demanding anything, I'm asking them to do it if they want to.

No, but I do think that a more active forum is better then a less active one, don't you?
If we could get more bits and pieces of info here it wouldn't hurt anything.
