Signed Sealed and Delivered.
Straight up CA/SEGA!!
If you ever want loyal fans to buy your games, you will need to take a serious look at the mod community. After all we we keep the life of the game going, and people will keep buying more copies in the long run. Simple economics! all other major companies do it, and you used to.
Trying to "nickel and dime" us on steam, will only infuriate us. So far I have not bought ETW, and will not buy NTW. READ THIS...WE hate STEAM!! I will only use it for VALVE only games. I NEVER purchase third party games on it!!
We also do not appreciate the $$$ scam your corporate suits are trying to pull!! Give us QUALITY on the first release, or we will no longer support you! (You might actually ask us what we want and actually follow through, you will be surprised!)
You need to understand game play and AI are the most important to the longevity of any game. If you do not want to put out higher quality work, for whatever reason, then you need to leave the game files open! For us to make the game better. Also visiting our efforts and actually putting in good words and trying out the works we make, might go a LONG way to bring this community back to life. READ THIS: Get involved with the community!
We have lost faith in you CA/SEGA!! Because of the half hearted efforts you have put into your games. Time to go back to basics..Remember Shogun, MED1 and RTW!! It is not too late?! But it will be, if you do not do 180 deg change in the way you are doing business. It's time to stand up, and face responsibility to us! and Tell SEGA we have to do it this way, or you might as well shut the doors.
VERY Sincerely!
