CrossfireX-producer indrømmer at de har "svigtet spillernes tillid"

Lanceringen af CrossfireX er ikke gået særligt godt. Ikke bare har spillet høstet ret ringe anmeldelser over hele linjen, blandt andet fra Gamereactor, men der har også været ret afgørende tekniske fejl. Blandt andet er det endnu ikke muligt for Game Pass-ejere at spille den lovede kampagne, som ellers er en del af aftalen.

Men noget tyder på at udvikleren Smilegate faktisk skammer sig en del over hele processen, og i et hudløst ærligt svar til skuffede fans siger spillets producer, Sooro Boo (eller Mr. Boo) fra sydkoreanske Smilegate følgende (via WCCFTech):

"My name is Sooro Boo, or "Mr. Boo" as many refer to me as, and I'm the Executive Producer of CrossfireX. It's clear that we have inadvertently disappointed many of our players and fans that have stuck with us for a long time. You mean everything to us and I felt that you deserved more than just a simple patch note, which is why I wanted to take this opportunity to personally apologize for the current state of the game.

There will always be bugs and various issues when it comes to video games, but we felt that CrossfireX's current issues had to do more with the core fundamentals of the game and that it felt like we've betrayed the trust of our players. There is simply no excuse for this, which is why I wanted to make a personal apology and explain exactly what the issues are and how we plan to overcome them. We will continue to be transparent and engage with you, our valued players, and hope to regain your trust again."

Det er da i det mindste ærligt, er det ikke?
