Thanks, guys, I appreciate it. I wish I could answer some of your questions better, but I don't even pretend to know everything about the game...just lots about the parts I helped design...so I'll just keep doing my best.
Everyone at QS is working hard to make sure you still feel as happy to have us around after the game comes out as you do now.If I'd known then what I know now, I'd never have done all the stuff that led me to what I know now...

Re: Three Cheers for Stormhound and Quicksilver!
True enough. Without Stormhound or a team liaison, this forum would go nowhere and maybe switched to the "other games" forum. My cheers also, and keep up the good work - in time some others will join us - we're in a traditional civer site, it may take some time before attracting interest here but it is feasable when we see the kind of progression made in the SMAC forum.Originally posted by MacTBone

Hail!
In civ 3, ever since the game went beta we stopped getting the very sporadic firaxis quotes. It is a pleasant change to get answers.

As long as you people will BE around after it comes out, to fix bugs/patches etc (although hopefully for once there won't need to be any?Originally posted by Stormhound

The world can be divided into two mutually exclusive groups:
1) Those who expect perfection in software.
2) Those who've actually worked on a large software development project.
We'll squash every bug we catch, and we certainly won't put any in on purpose. I do expect we'll be around to make patches (unless California drops into the sea or something), and I spent too many years as a programmer not to anticipate that there will be some needed, even if most everything works spectacularly well. How's that for being realistic?If I'd known then what I know now, I'd never have done all the stuff that led me to what I know now...

You forgot that in "our" reality, we always expect perfection on every game!

Don't mind me. I've been having dreams lately of my battle line running off chasing enemy frigates while my long range fire support elements charged into melee in an AI-controlled battle.

Yes, you're right. Because I explained myself in a bad way.Originally posted by ravagon
I don't think he forgot
What I meant to mean was that there are those in point 1 (who expect perfection) BUT can live with some flaws in games. I think there are lots of guys who consider themselves fans, but really can't apreciate others' work.
Oh, and that 9 I gave to Stormhound was going to 9.9, but since I used the Events' lottery balls system to get that number, I had to truncate it!

What you've said is fairly trite. (Of course it's also correct.) But what you didn't do was talk about how x amount of bugginess translates into y amount of user dissatisfaction. And how to make x -> (x/10). A more sophisticated, illuminating discussion would move you up the number scale.Comment
