I hope we get a response from Kestrel by tomorrow, because there is a certain amount of transparency the community expects, and I understand that whatever is going on in the background is difficult and stressful, but the community NEEDS to hear something once in a while to keep them motivated, even if it is just another "parts wont be here for atleast 1 week" post. every. post. matters. even if it adds no new information, we look up to the big sibling in this trying time, and we need our big sibling (Kestrel) to comfort us. this isnt guesswork, its psychology, please update your community soon Kestrel <3 much love I appreciate the project but your community needs to hear from you, I can feel the strain from just 2 days of no feedback <3

What is it with all these comments? Are you people just astroturfing negativity? There was an update less then 48 hours ago.

feels like their going on 24/7 atm

Yeah they hit right in the middle of peak EU times. The DDOS only typically lasts eight hours but if those are the only eight hours you can ever get on I'm sure it would feel like it's 24/7.

Im sorry you feel that way,
but no, im not "astroturfing" negativity, I am presenting my observation with Kestrel, I can feel the strain in the community, that is completely my opinion and I may very well be the only person who feels that way, and I made this post to feel comfortable knowing I did my best to announce my concerns, I am an active member of the discord aswell and I am not trying to spread negativity, I see this is a place to communicate with the owner of Octowow, Kestrel, and I want my voice to be heard. <3 thank you for your time

My guess is that he's still waiting to hear something from FlokiNET regarding the parts shipment. I agree that any communication from leadership would help with community morale.

I think the team is doing a great job and keeping us updated as much as they can. I can't imagine this being their full time paying job for them (or perhaps it is), and they also need to sleep. We can't expect them to give us 8-12hourly updates, they will when they have something they need to share. Also, the upmost importance is keeping this server and the teams anonymity, so we all have a place to play our favorite game.

The team has my 100% support and my patience through these difficult times. I hope you do too.

They upped it to 14+ hours last week because we were supposed to be getting a new server on Monday. It starts at 11am GMT and ends some time after midnight now.

Is there any current gathering of the community outside the game and the forums? I didn't know how much we needed the discord community until we lost it, and now I feel so disconnected from OctoWoW, even when playing it.

Yep, they're a bunch of entitled man-children that haven't mentally matured past the day they started playing this game 20 years ago. It was somewhat acceptable when you were 16, but you're getting closer to 36 now and you're embarrassing yourself.

What's infuriating is that we see these very real issues in the gaming industry, particularly in AAA, but then you look at what these gamers are saying and it's like... You get what you give? Do the gamers really deserve anything better?

You're giving a lot of impotent rage, and surprised when you get it back. Was this really the situation to make your fingers explode across your first post instead of acting like the better person? You're also a part of the problem, take it elsewhere, this is not the appropriate venue.

You're raging at some guy who is speaking the truth acting just like the people he is talking about. How is he "surprised when he gets it back"? when this is his first post. Maybe practice what you preach and be the better person yourself instead of going on a tirade and insulting the guy because he is fed up with how entitled manchildren like yourself behave. You could have de-escalated by having said, "Hey man, I get you're frustrated and rightfully so, but this probably isn't the best place to discuss this issue." Instead you respond with your own vitriol to further ramp the situation up.

You just copied my sentiment. Reverse, flip it, genuflect.
