GWX3

[HW3]

Try assembling a group of modders to work together for free, in their spare time, on a large project that takes several years to complete, and then ask them if they want to do it all over again, and see what answer you get.

They've done it before they can do it again.

They can but, the question is, do they want to? I was here during the GW/GWX development period, and I think they all feel once is enough for a major mod project. There have been a few smaller mods put out by individual members of the team but, I seriously doubt we will see the team reassemble for a large update of GWX.

As it was with GWX4 project, it was like "runaway to bushes" to me and a closing scene of all their work from this point. No GWX4 for SH4 not even GWX5 for SH5. GWX just sank in the abyss, can you ask yourself why ? I believe you may only guess, but the right answer is up to GWX members who runs silent afterall.

Have you even glimpsed at this thread?

It was posted 08-30-2009, 03:35 PM, hey no one forced to go into time tables present times, nor Kpt. Lehman should after all, you should do your job as slow or fast as you one as a team is capable at. In 2013 players do not care who will be the first one to complete SH3. You just have to move on with timeline and make necessary updates even if it were once a year, at least GWX will be moving forward.

I'll get right on it.


Let me re-phrase that.

And that as well as what Privateer and Steve have already posted is the current definitive position...one that will almost certainly never change.

And most of them learned from scratch. We're all waiting for you to start the next new supermod.

Then you can devote years of hard work, anguish, trials, tribulations, infighting, backbiting and heated battles with other mod teams (along with some good times, cameraderie and memories), just to have some arrogant jackwagon come along and tell you that you didn't do it right.

Professionals of their work can easily live along with all those human emotions as side effects and still follow their ploted course, to what they believe that is truth of history. But I believe that the loss of wish to continue this project is the major key not to continue GWX at all.
You can try to prove me wrong on this, but I have a doubt you'll have enough fuel to run this disscussion to continue.

But I believe that the loss of wish to continue this project is the major key not to continue GWX at all.

Great. Nobody says you have to use it. Likewise nobody says you can't say what you want about it. But you are insulting good people because they don't live up to your imaginary standards, and it's not going to do you any good. They're not going to get back together simply because you think they should.

There's nothing to prove, one way or the other. It's a matter of opinion. Yours is that it's unfinished, and that they are bad for not doing what you think they should have done. Mine is that you are beating a very dead horse and trying to shame people into doing something that is never going to happen.

I too am disappointed, because SH4 didn't get finished. That is what I really wanted to see. I also realize that it's not going to be, and there's nothing I can do about it. So I let it go, rather than insult the people who worked on it. The only full-war u-boat mod for SH4 is Operation Monsun. I wish Lurker had spent more time on it, but he didn't. There are several problems which annoy me, but I can't do a thing about it, short of learning how to fix them myself. If I'm not willing to do that, then I have no right to whine about it.

On the other hand the U-Boat HAHD project is looking like it might be even better than GWX. We'll see if it is, if and when it's ever finished. Then I hope they'll move on to do the same for SH4, as they said they might.

At least with SH3 you don't have to live with a mod you don't like. Try NYGM. Try LSH3. Try WAC.

But my challenge still stands. Rather than whine and cry about how they let you down, why don't you put your money where your mouth is and make a mod you can be proud of? Until then, rather than talk about the fuel I don't have to run this discussion, why don't you do something worthwhile?

GWX Team is a Non-entity.
It's dead, pinning for the fjords, pushing up daisies, crossed the river styx, etc.

Why can't people grasp that simple fact?
Why can't you let us carry on as We do now?

You were given everything for free and now you demand and try to guilt trip all the FINE people involved with GWX?

Only thing I can ask is...............
WTH are you to demand anything from any of the Modders here abouts?

There is no arguement you can make that will change anything.
(Unless you got a BUNCH of money to throw around)


(And that's not an arguement. It's a bribe. I have a policy about bribes. The bigger, the better!)

You should just say so in short phrase: "GWX ppl got sick and tired working for free", I appreciate everyone involved init and I'm not demanding anything, I'm just trying to understand REAL cause of GWX end of survival. I believe nobody from GWX users are happy that GWX crumbled apart to somewhat foggy reasons.

I just want to say that no steps were taken to seek for the solution to maintain the project and to keep ppl who worked on it on the line after GWX3 went gold. If there were problems amongst GWX members ok, project could be suspended for better times and revived later..
There were options, but I think everything was done to shut it down on purpose.

Now you can start bashing my opinion calling me uncomprehending unthankfull upstarter if you like, whatever.

Because they were awesome.
because coming here and seeing it all unfold in front of my eyes was an astonishing experience.
because looking over they shoulders and seeing strangers work together to achieve a common goal is an impressive sight.
because seeing it somewhat orchestrated by a handsful of wizards was impressive.
because everybody on this board and beyond was willing to share their files for free, for fun, for the achievement of something round, complete, finished.

Why do some people still hold on to Elvis?
Why do people still cry over Michael Jackson?

Because these made their mark.
GWX is legend, both for the work that progressed as well as the finished result.

And it is good. it is good that it is finished. because now GWX can stand as an example for many good qualities that humans have.

and as such, it can also serve to inspire others in cooperating, over all kinds of Borders.

GWX is Big. George Lukas BIG.

That's why.

Actually just because of my expressions I received an Infraction Was that really neccessary ? Who got insulted ? I will personaly apologise him/them, because if they felt insulted over my thinking it's probably related to their personality bugs, which should be treated by psychologist etc.

One calls me a demander, another callms me insulter, whats wrong with you ppl. No one is attacking your brains so chill.
