At least we have the option for the TAA/FXAA shit.

TAA is objectively f**king awful looking and it's being forced into a bunch of games. I'm sorry but I really don't enjoy looking through a screen door instead of seeing some jagged edges.

As for the spawn changes, it'd be nice if you guys managed to address your terrible server issues instead of having to do half-assed work-arounds that ultimately always negatively impact gameplay (hint: the most important part).

BTW, where's the animation pass that was supposedly worked on 2 years ago that we talked about before? From what I understood in our conversation, a lot of the work had been done by the guy that was hired to do it, layoffs etc. etc. but has this stuff just been sitting there for 18+ months now with nothing forthcoming? This is something that I might expect given the emphasis here on functional visual stuff.

Hope to hear more very soon about some elephants in the room when it comes...

Frankly, that fell through. A lot of the work that was done wasn't able to stand up to heavy scrutiny. The truth of it is that animation updates are, at this point, an aspect of the game's development that we are least capable of delivering on, and I'm not sure when or if that will change.

Stay tuned then, we've got some stuff to talk about in the next letter that you'll probably be interested in.

Cool. Is that gonna be this or next month?

I'll say this, as much as people bitched about Oshur launch spawn system, I liked it.

Unsure of the exact timing for the next article, but we'll be more active in teasing bits and pieces as we lead up to the anniversary. Definitely have some cool stuff coming down the pipe that I'm excited to talk about.

Guess that depends on what your particular bugbear is, but if the Spawn System was one of them, that's being addressed. As mentioned toward the bottom of the letter, we'll talk more about gameplay updates and adjustments in the next letter.
