Some of you guys are very creative. Perhaps you could focus some of that into something positive! I have done work on their movies and lots of work on the game. Virtually the same thing happened on the Titanfall forum. One day before the release and there were no new videos and no pics of any kind. That was all they were working on and couldnāt deliver that. I didnāt see anyone on that board calling them scam artists (there were some pissed people). I dropped 250$ on the special edition that comes with the kick-ass statue. That was at least 8 months in advance of when the game came out. I purchased on faith. We should be so quick to judge Necrostorm? Yes, they have a long standing history of being slow. Painfully slow at times. Some of that isnāt their fault. I donāt pay for their products so I donāt feel the frustration that some may. I get mine shipped for free. Yes, It took forever to get my movies and I even got a digital download of Hotel Inferno because it was taking forever. I can only tell you that they are too real of a company to be āfakeā. Donāt mistake the fact that Iām a mod for them and I do work for them, that Iām not on the customers side too. Iām in the middle and I see both sides. I have an MBA and I try to give any assistance that I can to them and provide them with the feedback that I think they need. Like anyone, they will do what they will with THEIR company. Always remember that, lads. They will do what they want. Itās up to you, if you will, to take part in it. I can assure you they are good people and want to do some good. Iām a gamer and I have made it painfully clear on the forums that I stay out of almost all the stuff related to DC just so i can have it remain a surprise. I want the game just like anyone. My DL should be ready to go today at some point. They have no reason to lie to me. OH, and btwā¦Iām sure they have had someone scrolling through these pages long before I showed up. I actually came to look at the Killer instinct page and the first thing on the screen was this topic. Kind of funny. I could literally have created any name this āis internetā after all. Ive got no reason to hide and I have no reason to stir anything up as appears some of you do. I just like games. I think some of you guys can dial it back a bit. Cheers. P.S. I draft some of their communications as well. I made the Digital Download communication. If itās broken English its coming from other necrostorm folks. Just an FYI. Iāld also be happy to answer any questions I can about the game itself.
I appreciate that you come here with the friendly words and such, but it doesnāt help when the facts are as follows:
-Physical copy of the game was āreleasedā in February, which no one has actual proof of receiving.
-Digital copy of the game was āreleasedā on May 5th, which no one has proof of receiving.
-Everyone that has actually spoken up who has tried to purchase either has either gotten nothing, or have had their orders refunded when they spoke critically of Necrostorm.
-The preview video that was supposed to have come out on May 5th has not shown up.
-Multiple new accounts have shown up on SRK to drum up proof of the gameās existence in a more complete form, but the credibility of the proof of the gameās existence is dubious at best, especially when combined with the shady way how the accounts present said proof.
Masterblizak, just tell Necrostorm to be completely open and truthful. Every passing hour that they say nothing is only hurting the credibility of the company, and the trust of Shoryuken and Test Your Might.
What kind of company intentionally riles up their customer base and refuses to do dealings with them in any form? That isnāt them running the company āTheir wayā that is just bad business in general.
If EA, Activision, Capcom, or Nintendo ever sent an e-mail back through customer service calling customers they have never seen fat, stupid, mentally ill and using ALL CAP to put an emphasis on it they would be in a world of media trouble. If those said companies told someone with cash willing to buy their products to fuck off, they would also be very, very stupid.
If they are somehow good people they could have fooled me. I understand you want to defend them but you donāt have a Soapbox to stand on currently unless they do a major overhaul in practically everything they are doing from the gaming front.
You have a MBA and youāre employed as a admin guy that does forum moderating and comms? Wow, the prestige! Iām chuffed to bits for you and canāt wait to see your next powermove!
In fact, since youāre a high flying MBA Iām keen to understand your views on customer perception, lack of communications (your area, right?), missed deadlines and deliverables, and what sort of compliance controls Necrostorm has put in place to prevent this sort of thing from happening.
Or could it be youāre just some low paid billy bad ass that came here to talk some shit? Donāt gimme that shit about KI. You guys said you had a deadline, you shouldnt even have time to breath let alone come here, browse for KI articles and posting some fables. Fuck you man.
I appreciate his posts, too. However, heās from Minneapolis, most-likely (of course not) has never met them, says he works for them and most importantly doesnāt even have positive verification of the games existence.
How can you have such faith based into a company when youāre not even located in the same country, let alone their product (being an āemployeeā) to back it up?
----not to be a dick, but itās factual information.
Yeah, I apologise to masterblizak for my first comment to him, was rather rude.
But you can understand the frustration, Iāve been following this shit since 2011 and now Iām banned, for nothing agreeing with people who said they seem shady (which they freakinā do, and you canāt deny that).
Rereading the Death Cargo thread, I never realized that they could be creating a game and spend no money on promoting it the entire time. This whole time they spent their resources on letting this thread be organically created for our pleasure.
Being positive is for HIV carriers which makes sense because this āgameā is digital AIDS.
With that being said I still want to have glorious unprotected sex with the pain, suffering, and frustration that has amassed between all the enabling turds that purchased this āgameā. I want to go raw on their feelingsā¦so that they can finally grasp the gravity of the situation that they have created. And by gravity I mean my penis.
I can verify that I have seen screen shots from and have confirmed from people that know about things that havenāt been released. Remember, since I know most things about the characters aspect of it in regards to story, I have knowledge of those things. When someone can tell me about a character that only I would know about-itās legit. Also, they have no reason to lie to me. Again, Iām waiting like anyone. I have skyped with a number of them via voice and IM so I have āmetā them. I can assure you this isnāt my only job. To take 5 seconds and look at my FB page that is easily available you could see that I have a regular job. Let me bring you into it just a bit. I have spoken to them about the shipping and I can see both sides. It takes forever for me to even get my items. They do everything internally- EVERYTHING. They hand stuff every package. If you could imagine what it would take to hand stuff and post all the packages with all their gear?! The thought was adding an available option of tracking info and all that, but you could understand what kind of additional work that would take? I think they are intentionally trying to stay a small company. Clearly there is some opportunity to grow staff and production process to speed things up. Thatās evident. If you look at the company page, there are only a handful of us. Most of those guys do multiple things. The āshipping guysā also do the programming of the game for every individual customer. In all seriousness. Iām just trying to be the voice of reason. If they piss you off, then leave it alone.
Ozaki iii- Donāt talk down to me. Iām not hiding behind some name on some forum like you. I can be readily seen on FB. Thatās me and who I really am. To say āFuck Meā when Iām trying to see both sides of this deal? really dude?! As you can tell by other commenters. Iām respectful (generally) I expect the same in return. Iām just a guy like many of you who want to play awesome games. Your aggressive language tells me you have a lot of growing up to do mate. Again, I totally get the frustrations of everyone for some things they do. Iām not defending them really, but I see both sides here. Their lack of delivery is not on me, thatās them. Iām being patient and have always been patient. It just seems odd that so many would commit soo much of their time on what they āhavenāt seenā or āhavenāt gottenā or āhavenāt heardā. If you think about it, look how much attention they are getting by NOT putting something out as far as videoās or screen shots. I even saw that someone requested the FBI look into it. Thatās actually hilarious. Like seriously guy, dial it back. There are far more worse troubles in the world than what they are doing to āyouā or anyone for that fact.
Iām the reasonable voice of the company. Always have been. How many other companies respond to people like they do? At some point I can tell you they will stop responding (as they have in the past). Then there will only be me. Many of you can continue to be angry for whatever reason or you can just move on to other games.
You can continue talking to me peacefully or I can leave and never come back. This is my first time here so not coming back isnāt a problem. You guys seem real passionate about games and I like that. My wife hates that about me! You guys can go on hating DC, It doesnāt bother me if you do. Your problems are not mine. I can really tell you that they def. donāt care and thatās their problem. Is that the right thing? Thatās up to them.
Last I saw of you, you were on the Necrostorm forum waiting for your code to play the game! So how is it? How do you like it? Oh wait, let me guess, you still havenāt played it.
But you still believe. . Iām going to go ahead and bet youāre a religious man, and your used to eating up lies with a spoon without any kind of evidence.
So yea, howās the game? 48 hours is up, what do you think about Death Cargo? Everything you wanted an more? Iāve got some bottled air I will sell you, $20 a bottle! Just wait 87428 hours for verification of shipment notification.
Your a damn moron, and people like you (easy targets) are the reason necrostorm knew they could get away with this scam.
I canāt believe you believe what people tell youā¦ especially because
How about you guys skip the talking altogether and spend the time in fixing your issues in an open and transparent way instead?
If you guys have any sense of business know how, publish an official statement (not a fucking forum post) where you acknowledge customer problems along with a step by step plan on how to rectify them.
It will help you save whatever is left of your company reputation. Games and media are more intertwined than ever, how long until your existing customer base, that would normally only care about your movie works, get a sniff of this? It gives them more ammo to ditch you.
Heās actually a customer, who makes excuses for necrostorm, but has been waiting over a month for his game because he is āone of the unlucky 20 out of the 6000 who have received their gameā.
You can also just replace whatās in those quotations with āan idiotā.
