One year since Mobula added.

Neithrantulre:
This week marks the one year anniversary of the Mobula! Yay
But also a full year of no new ships. :(

Please do not forsake Skirmish Mode.

Milevan Faent:
Skirmish Mode has to be forsaken to work on other stuff. They don't exactly have the staff to do too much work on it AND make new content.

Neithrantulre:
I Just don't want Adventure Mode to alienate players and leave the game in stagnation the way Eve Incarna did. CCP lost a lot of subscriptions by simultaneously adding microtransactions, starting an ambitious project, and ignoring what the game was all about, which was, is and always will be
Ships Blowing Each Other Up.

Muse already ticked step 1 and 2. If they tick step 3 then they are making the same mistake and will likely lose players. Make sure that this game remains fun and dynamic. We all know Adventure mode will take development, and we can expect less dedication the the base game because of it. Adventure mode has a release date likely as late as 2015. We haven't seen a new ship in 12 months, new gun in 10 months, or new content at all (rangefinder) in 7 months. Nothing at all since the confirmation of Adventure Mode.

I see a lot of players of Guns of Icarus who used to play Eve Online. Anyone who has played both games will understand how they scratch the same itch. Guns of Icarus Online was successfully kickstarted just a few months after droves of Eve players unsubscribed because of the Incarna fiasco. This was probably not a coincidence. Many players likely still wanted to blow ships up but didn't want to fund a company that didn't care about them.

Are we really OK playing the game exactly as it is for 18 months or more and then we have to pay for all the new content? Adventure doesn't even have a set release date, when can we expect Skirmish to get some love? Even when Adventure is released, it is some kind of co-op campaign, and can't come close to taking the 400ish hours I've played in Skirmish. We will all end up back in Skirmish for the long haul. Can't we have a LITTLE content in the meantime, just to keep things interesting?

Look at the suggestions/feedback forum. It is not full of suggestions for Adventure. Its almost all requests for content for skirmish. Listen to the players and don't make CCP's mistake.

Less development for Skirmish is necessary. Don't make it no development. Adventure can wait a month or two if it means you won't start losing players BEFORE it comes out.

pandatopia:
Tbh, I think a lot of the reason we don't see more ships is because the ships seem to be mostly covered already.

I -love- how every ship is so different, and seems to fit different roles. I love seeing the ingenuity of pilots who do crazy stuff that you wouldn't think could work.

I am not sure what a new ship can do to differentiate itself.

Probably I would rather have new guns (though, tbh, all the guns seem to have filled their niches nicely, with the exception of the harpoon - aka the achievement gun) and new map types.

Firstly, on the matter of ships it's kind of hard to make up something really original and new now, without anyone saying something like "but it's just a ship X with a little more Y and little less Z". What is more important; wake up, game IS finished. It's beeing sold on Steam as a completed product, not beta or early acces or anything else, so basically Muse can just turn all their focus to making new things. The matter of patching or adding new content to the game is their decision. Of course it's in good taste to have some backup (or at least patches) for the game but it's not a must.
Secondly if you'd be enough interested to actually watch chat with devs you'd see that in spite of all that they DO make things for Skirmnish mode. They said that new update will be soon (like a month or so I think) and that it will do some changes to clan system and some changes in ammounation. Maybe more, but I just didn't remember ;) So be less demanding and more patient, my friend.

Well kickstarter page says it's in some time in 2015. It's hard to set a date because it's hard to tell percentage of work and I guess many things are rather in, let's say thinking-phase than doing-phase.

That's because
1. There is special subject for Adventure Mode suggestions
2. Adventure mode making is in so early phase that even Muse is not sure what exactly will it look like.

Muse is also working to make some of game modes from Adventure Mode to be availible to play in skirmnish, so with release of Adventure Mode there will also be some good stuff for Skirmnish too ;)
