Apologies, I should have explained what I meant by 'prove'.
As the honcho I would have thought he would have the final word on game releases and updates.
You know the kind of thing - send it up to the boss for final approval before retail release.
And so Steve would be practising due diligence by looking at the releases and ensuring they are of merchantable quality, amongst other things.
And yet, we see in the latest round of game updates eg CMBN, CMRT and CMFI:
1. No mention of the requirements to have Microsoft Visual C++ 2015- 2022 Redistributable (x86) installed in Windows for the latest patches that include PBEM++ to even run. Not even on the website (to my knowledge).
2. No inclusion of the updated game manual that tells you how to actually play said PBEM++. It's out there, somewhere, but the one you receive with your updated game is dated 2015 and hence has no mention of the feature.
3. Continued releasing of patches in the past that fail to address say, inf breaking cover and heading towards enemy, although patch notes state that its fixed.
It's small details like this (yes, they are small, but to my eye, important) that lead me to believe that people who represent the company are not paying close enough attention to the game itself.
So when I see said people spending their time on unrelated topics and rarely discussing the games themselves - and the above items (and more) are still not addressed - raises my eyebrow.
I'd like management to roll up their sleeves and prove that they are 100% behind their product, by ensuring their product is as good as it can be. But that probably won't be read either.
From one rando to another
