Official Statment Pumti Finally didnt loose a flag

 8) 8) 8) PROFESSIONAL FLAGGING

And because the other team was utter shite
I take personal offense to that statement.
1v1 me in among US Dan hit the button!!!!

saw US in all caps and my eyes widened just for it to be an among us mentioned and not USA mentioned 💔
I feel your pain, Yovko hates me for being born on that continent.

I wear my tags with Honor in the 84th and that is why my howitzer shots NEVER MISS!!
@84th @GlennofNW Can we get a statement on Yovko´s claim of never missing a howitzer shot

I can confirm Yovko never misses. If the howitzer doesn’t get a kill, it’s because the enemy tanked.
This is a lie. I've seen him miss with my own eyes

Skaen In 2011 (Mount & Musket) his first regiment was the 54e.

Still the funniest part of this thread

I'll gauge interest and see if we want to run it back, but was looking to get the teamspeak active with 10 mans again now that CS2 is out anyway 8)

Since we've switched to CS2, can we still play the play-off matches?
Say no more, new brackets go up before the weekend!!!

I was actually supposed to travel there for the anniversary in 2015, but I got asked by the school I was working for at the time to cover a seminar on the Napoleonic Wars that another teacher was supposed to do but ended up on maternity leave earlier than expected.

Although I didn't get to travel to the mainland, we had a day out in London with 100+ students and then had a big presentation on the wars which they seemed to find quite interesting!

Nö, nur realistisch
Kann ich nicht beurteilen, ich kann deinen Satz nicht entziffern

Spoiler
Die Leute die länger damit zu tun hatten wie die lieben Herren vor dir verstehen den Satz :P Kurz zusammengefasst: Der selbsternannte Oberchef im Team hat keine Ahnung von technischen Aspekten, weigert sich aber konsequent auf irgendwen anders zu hören, weil er alles allein mit seinem Namen verbunden haben will und in Teilen auch einfach zu wenig englischsprachig ist. Das widerspricht zwar allem, was anfangs ausgemacht war- eigentlich wurde er nie als Chef gewählt oder so - aber er hat halt die anderen ursprünglichen Leads rausgeekelt, bis nur noch er da war. Und daran scheitert das Ganze, weil einer nach dem anderen demotiviert quittet. Die Dinge die wenigstens funktionieren, tun das nicht wegen der selbsternannten Chefetage, sondern trotz der selbsternannten Chefetage. Und das ist ganz schön bitter.

Stell dir mal vor du weißt als Dev aus dem technischen Sektor, dass etwas unausgereift ist und nicht funktioniert - und dann rennt jemand mit genau dem als angeblich funktionierend öffentlich hausieren und verspricht Leuten das Blaue vom Himmel, nur um dich dann im Discord anzumachen wieso das alles nicht so funktioniert wie er es sich in seiner Ahnungslosigkeit ausmalt. Und dann liegen viele der Probleme bei Events noch nicht mal an der Technik, sondern daran dass der selbsternannte Meisterprogrammierer und Chef des Ganzen nen Server nicht richtig einstellen kann. Da hat halt dann keiner mehr Bock Probleme zu lösen, wenn die Probleme ständig von einer Person neu geschaffen werden. Das ist und bleibt ein Spiel, sowas macht man aus Spaß, nicht weil man Bock hat sich mit einem ausgewaschenen Narzissten rumzuschlagen.
Da könnte man ganze Bücher füllen mit dem, was die letzten Jahre so passiert ist. Ich sag mal nur: Das Team hat jetzt den 4. Community-Manager, weil die anderen entnervt aufgegeben haben. Und ach ja, das Beta-Release-Datum wurde NICHT von der technischen Seite so gewählt. Das wurde einfach aus der Luft gegriffen und dann etwas ganz und gar unfertiges zusammengeklatscht und veröffentlicht, ohne dabei auf die technischen Contributer zu hören. Es gab davor nicht mal Tests, ob das Modul wirklich funktioniert, aber es wurden natürlich zum ersten Event massig Streamer etc geladen - mit den bekannten katastrophalen Konsequenzen, die man dann der technischen Seite angelastet hat intern, obwohl die gar nicht releasen wollte. Und so geht das immer weiter und weiter und weiter. Kurz: es wird rumgewurschtelt.



Und am Ende kommt noch nicht mal was Genießbares dabei raus...

(My German grammar is terrible even after working for a German company for a long time so I won't even try XD)

When I came onto the project whats already YEARS ago, there was an unbelievable amount of red flags basically immediately. I think Ted you and me spoke on Discord in chat maybe once or twice when I first came on as Creative Director, one of the first things I asked was "What is the structuring of the dev repo? Because this looks like a mess". To which you laughed at me and said "Thats because there isn't one".

For anyone who doesn't have experience in a development team, thats an immediate HUGE red flag, especially for someone joining the team fresh. So many basic things were being missed it just screamed that Lucon+Hypercharge have no real clue what they are doing. Although I dont know if I blame Hypercharge really, Lucon is probably gaslighting him to no end in the background.

As creative director it was quite interesting to just get ignored at every turn. My background IRL is in Private Cloud + Bespoke hosting solutions for corporate environments, so I assumed (wrongfully) I would be included when discussing servers and the hosting side of S&M yet was never consulted or included on any of those discussions, nor was I ever included on any discussions surrounding the development of the combat. Originally plans had been put together by myself to bring on prominent NW players/groups to do phased private tests of these systems.

"Lucon - We need to be careful of the naming convention of the development/release versions because its going to confuse the players and if it confuses them, its going to be a fucking nightmare internally" - Ignored
"Lucon - We need to make sure the dev teams and 'directors' have input in the marketing material being sent out on Taleworlds, ModDB and to all these YouTubers + Streamers" - Ignored

Lucon is a guy with a LOT of ego, he constantly likes to remind people of his regiment in NW which 99% of players have never heard of. Only reason I heard of it is because I have been involved in a lot of hosting. This whole thing is a big vanity project to gain influence over a community, he wants to be the overlord of NW 2.0 and will bully anyone else with a strong voice out until its just him remaining. He has no qualifications to be the guy in charge of a project on this scale.

One of the biggest problems which you touched on imo, without being your typical 'british guy', was Lucon's terrible English. It was like talking to a disillusioned wife who just shakes her head and probably hasn't listened to a word you said.

I knew the mod was never going to be able to recover when Lucon released the trailer and release date without consulting anyone. Despite 0 work being done on the melee/server/technical side of the mod to be ready for this, so you just knew immediately the NW+Holdfast communities were going to spit on it and never look back.

Also Ted I can see they removed yours and many other peoples credits for the work you did. Again Lucon stroking his ego, it has to all be him. Nobody else can exist in the public eye but him. Disgraceful.

Almost forgot, a number of months ago Lucon asked me to return to the project to do what I had PLANNED from the beginning, which was the phased testing/daily tournaments to test the combat. Which I can see DarkTemplar is doing now. Fuck no was I going to come out of retirement for that shit.

wird der Bums überhaupt aktiv gespielt?

jein
es gibt wieder Events

aber nachdem ich jetzt auch als event organizer gequitted bin, kp wie lange noch

Schon wundersam, wie einfach so viele Leute quitten. Vielleicht hat das ja alles eine einzige Ursache, die seit Jahren einfach immer weiterwuschtelt weil narzisstisch gestört? JA VIELLEICHT IST DAS JA SO?
