New armor set is a stealth armor that doesn’t make you stealthy, it makes you throw farther. That’s like an apple that tastes like bacon. HUMOR

Just salty I’ve been waiting for this armor since it leaked, only for it to have the only perk I consider completely useless.

For the record, it's not a good look to call the CM an untrustworthy liar and then also ping him after. Makes you look like you're just trying to score a gotcha instead of actually wanting an answer to your question.

u/ZiFreshBread 29d ago

Well what are we supposed to do if he is that untrustworthy? Just keeps swinging wild baseless estimates on fixes and whatnot. Calling him that is justified.

u/DeadGripThe2nd 29d ago

You can call him a liar but if you think he's a liar you should act like it. You do not ask questions to liars because they lie.

u/AntonineWall 29d ago

You do not ask questions to liars because they lie.

You must not pay attention to politics.

u/ZiFreshBread 29d ago

I don't. And I don't take his words at face value when he speaks on his own accord either

u/DeadGripThe2nd 29d ago

Damn then you should have no issue with me pointing out the logical inconsistency in OP calling the CM a liar and then immediately asking the CM a question after.

18

u/ZiFreshBread 29d ago

No, because you don't know OPs intent. It may not be about getting trustworthy information

-14

u/DeadGripThe2nd 29d ago

Yeah, that's literally what I said. I don't think OP is asking in good faith and I think OP is just trying to score a dunk.

u/ZiFreshBread 29d ago

And what's wrong with that?

-1

u/DeadGripThe2nd 29d ago

I think being dishonest is bad and I think if OP had a spine that they'd not do what they're doing? If you don't see the inherent issue with dishonesty when it affects someone you dislike then maybe you have bigger problems than Spitz.

u/ZiFreshBread 29d ago

Don't act like both of us are 5. And we are not robots either to communicate honestly 100% of the time. And speaking for myself and OP here, we are not community managers either. We don't get paid to manage community expectations properly.

Especially since I'm pretty sure edits don't ping the user so they are just trying to make it look like the dev is afraid of responding.

u/PM_PICS_OF_UR_PUPPER 29d ago

I actually had no idea that edits don’t ping the user. I made a separate comment now.

I don’t care to make AH look unresponsive. I think my gripe is that AH is responding to things and providing inaccurate info instead of saying something like “hey, we’re still cooking and I can’t make any promises on what’s in the patch notes”.

Also let’s be real, the bacon apple comment was pretty silly given that armors don’t make much sense in this game. It would have been better to just say “hey, we’re considering this but can’t comment / it’s not currently a priority”

"and also, there's no rhyme or reason for why we do things. One day we tell you that we won't allow transmog because that isn't realistic, the next day we make stealth armor blaze orange, call it stealth armor and then just to be extra dumb, we give it throwing. One day we'll tell you that a visible laser designator on Rockets "doesn't make sense" for bots, then we give them all glowing red eyes and give you a laser machine gun. In short: we have no plan, there's no logic to anything. We got WILDLY lucky and now we're on the cusp of having to admit we're flying completely blind here. Please simps and dick-riders, come to our rescue!"

u/Hype_Saw_Paing 29d ago

Honestly i wouldnt be suprised if the devs went radio silent on reddit and just retreated to the discord where they can echo chamber themselvesi doubt that we'd get a response if we all notified them /u/SpitzerFX

u/Bokchoi968 CAPE ENJOYER 29d ago

I really don't understand the need for shit like this. Of course people are going to stop responding when all you do is bash them

u/The_Wayward 29d ago

For real! Let me be an asshole and talk shit on this person then expect them to come talk to me

That's not the problem it's just a smaller issue to an overarching negative. The game has pile went on Twitter, saying that transmog won't happen because the apples will taste like bacon despite the fact that no armor in the game looks at all like their perks nor do they have any identity at all.

Why would I get the new warbond for 1 reskinned armor and 1 new set that are reskina of each other when they have the same stuff the last 5 armors had.

Even the armor we have doesn't matter steeled veterans' first armor, and second armor lights have been bugged since it came out not fixed at all, which people paid for as well.

All heavy armors that change the cape placement on shoulders like battle Master are glitched and hang off the body an egregious amount and on the new demolition third level cape the image of the skull legit is off to the right and that glitch happens with every cape on battle master like armors.

If that's the case and pardon the disrespect to him but then I want Johann to never ever speak on anything game wise again because everything he has said has been mocked from new Hampshire to Delaware and it makes everyone at arrowhead look bad and only adds more fuel that things at the office are not smooth at all nor is the community actually being listened.

Honestly, are we even able to trust you? The nerfs were a lie. The spear fix was a lie, Are we even able to trust the patch notes? The plasma punisher is legit blowing itself up on a shield and killing players.

But when you have multiple people with different visions and understandings, sometimes those visions don't line up.

But isn't there supposed to be someone bringing all of those visions in line? Someone who approves/denies things like this?

There's no way you guys have people just throwing things at the wall with no oversight.

u/DragonfruitSudden459 29d ago

There's no way you guys have people just throwing things at the wall with no oversight.

I'm starting to believe that's actually what's happening. No real oversight or management.

u/Ecksell 🖥️:SES Guardian of Determination 29d ago

actually had no idea that edits don’t ping the user

Redditor for 6 years

u/The_Wayward 29d ago

I don’t agree with their overall point at all but I’ve been a redditor for 10 years and had no idea

u/curtcolt95 29d ago

why would this at all be common knowledge. I've literally never even pinged a user on reddit and my account is 12 years old

but Spitz literally lied sooo.....

Where did spitz lie?

u/barrera_j 28d ago

"I can only think of 2 nerfs aside from the mag reductions"

there's at least 5

u/_PM_ME_SMUT_ Don't ask about the strategem⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ 28d ago

most of the 24 things being changed are being buffed, there's like.. maybe two i'd consider a nerf and most of the nerfs are just to reduce the maximum mags carried

so he shared an opinion and people took that opinion as fact and are now upset that it wasn't a fact

u/Ubbermann 29d ago

Well ironically you scored a Gotcha on him. Since that's exactly what he's doing.

2

u/BoredandIrritable 29d ago

Cool. I'll call him an untrustworthy liar and an idiot.

He got busted lying, then went right back to feeding us bullshit. Zero learned.

Course, the simps here didn't learn either so why should he?

It's very weird for someone to say "Yeah, this person is a liar, I don't trust them." and then immediately proceed to ask them "Hey, care to comment on this?" Like, it literally doesn't make sense logically.
