So... is there a "delete character" button yet?
Nope, you still have to delete them manually, unless I'm mistaken.

SO. New topic: Who wants to bet that the alien responsible for uplifting the Avians were a bunch of Novakid who managed to get their shit together, at least for a while? Seems semi-plausible, at least if I'm remembering Avian lore correctly.

The Novakids seem to be completely separate in the game.

They probably aren't in the story at the moment.

I'm talking about it from a lore standpoint, not a gameplay standpoint.

That is what I am talking about. The Novakids are clearly an afterthought. It is likely they have the lore written now.

The Novakids are likely going to have their own completely separate story.

You guys do realize you are now attacking anyone who disents with you now, right?

I'm sorry, where was the dissent? I never saw anyone saying the state of things is actually fine and CF's PR is okay because... while listing reasons. All I saw was "stop talking about things I don't want to hear/think about."

If some AAA company had pulled even half of this they'd be piled with scorn (can you imagine the backlash if Bioware openly mocked and banned people over the Mass Effect ending drama? and that was loads worse than this). Yet... indie somehow gets a free pass or something.

But yeah, there's nothing new in the game and I think we've long since run out of the hype over promises. People kinda deserve to know what they're getting into if they come to this thread when considering the game, and since their forums clearly aren't the place for such criticism, people deserve to vent here as long as it's respectful. I haven't actually seen a personal attack here (well I have... but it was against me and I'm ignoring it. No one else that I recall).

--I'm not going to continue belaboring the current situation, I just wanted my 2 cents in here.

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

Maybe if the game wasn't a flaming wreck there'd be something to discuss other than the dismal state of the 'development' team and their product they've already sold to people?

Ok.

The ingame lore is a bunch of nonsense.

Happy?

I answered your question... it wasn't a real discussion.

I mean there must be a reason why the Novakids are not already in the game.

The reason being that the dev team are more interested in trolling their userbase with memes like 4channers?

Y'know, bitching about it in here isn't going to make things better. :I

No the reason is that likely they had a lot of the assets for the other races done.

The Novakids are an add on.

Yeah, you could go to the CF forums and get banned for the opinions held, a much better option.

Well, it's twice as pointless bitching about it here, since, like I said, IT WON'T MAKE THINGS BETTER.

All it'll do is fuel further resentment and just kinda result in a spiral of hate and repetition.
