Talking to itdirection is no small endeavor
from Sunxuemei on 09/07/2020 04:03 AMAdapting the approach to the decreased capacity sounds like this monthly update thing is temporary until you can work from the office again? Or is it a point? What are"existing plans"? It would have been nice to understand that these before the plans were shelved. Are these openings a 3/6/12 month gaps between? And by changing programs does this imply no longer doing updates/expansions that are large?
Frankly, I am fine with that if it did seem a little PR'y because they really are throwing themselves at it to be fair. A team actively look to respond and find opportunity in a situation that affects production output is very uncommon in my own experience. It would have been simpler from a development standpoint to stay the course and just take the slower delivery cadence - and lots of teams would pick that option and toss out the COVID excuse.
Talking to itdirection is no small endeavor. There is a huge knock in numerous areas - brainstorms upon brainstorms, scoping, reformatting teams, working out the way to earn significant content on much smaller timeframes and so on. That takes effort, time and a lot of coordination - and then you have to go perform on it. But the expectation is that this is the way to go to deliver material and prevent big gaps.
On the WFH front, your case is the same for some others here in Jagex too, but maybe not for most (especially those with children or less than perfect work environments). We've got inner Wellness polls that people respond to combined with Production Estimates which have proven the gradual drop in productivity - final estimate was over 30 percent down. I could safely say I am definitely not functioning and emotionally taxed in my best in those conditions. It is a tough situation for many.
On temporary or permanent strategy: That is an adaptation to our situation at the moment. We wish to return to those huge Archaeology sized material strikes later on. If this approach is popular, Nevertheless, I can't imagine we would not take cues from that in our article remote-working strategies. On the present plan: This identifies the stuff we announced at Runefest - which were all pieces of content.
We declared Orthen remains in the works today and - more long duration - EGWD has. The target is to deliver meaningful Small and Medium additive content more often (like the next Alchemical stuff we discussed now ), with occasional strikes of larger content (something like Orthen). In terms of this cadence or dates for larger content hits, we have strategies on how often we'd like that to be but it's not something that we are in a place to communicate today. As we get into the rhythm of the new production approach, we'll start to construct a more consistent picture and talk timelines in a bit more confidence.
Jagex has had a history of saying the ideal things, getting people hyped, not delivering what they said they went to deliver. Community complains, Jagex eventually says the ideal things, claims things will change, people become hyped, then they under deliver. Repeat. Warden promising to be transparent and stay tuned for the roadmap at January!!! We got nothing and he has said no roadmap is coming.
It was, although we are getting updates, arch is excellent and all. What about those 3 months? What about all these patch weeks? You announced the new quest, kind of had to with the miserable players. It's was in development for months, until some mod said it's in design stage in a twitter post. I'm done using the words. Show us you are changing and we're going to believe it. I get it you weren't here for it all, but Jagex has a steep road.
I appear to remember that back in 07/08, we had months with no updates, although I get that its frustrating. Big upgrades are fine, but Game dev takes some time. Imagine they're having to contend with now. For me, the issue includes them communicating things, and being transparent, which has never been Jagex's strong suit. Additionally, a lot of the patch notes are in fact good for RuneScape, with a number of the bad updates throughout the years being enhanced, as long as they do not attempt to sell those as big upgrades, I do not see a problem, really. For updates to be sold by them the updates have got to be good. That's the only way it may get the job done.
I have spent a great deal of time working on this arrangement of the theme music from RuneScape. I attempted to make the score look as professional as possible, so I'd like feedback on it - especially in those of you who are great with engraving or know the songs. See video description for detals - but I want to preface by acknowledging that there is a lot of info for the layman.
Overall it done, in my opinion. I really don't know the original, but it appears to capture the soul of an adventure kind of motif. The combination does not do justice. E.g., sometimes a theme isn't as prominent on your mix as what it'll be in a real ring. The accompanying figures tend to overshadow the lines.
