    I think we're all just tired of being made to feel old fashioned if there's quite clearly a better and reliable solution that's available, but because it isn't bleeding edge tech or easy, they shove the blame back on us. We can say "native" all we want but they say "no no, the future is html5" well I'm sorry, it wasn't 5 years ago and it still isn't. We shouldn't even care what native is, it's just become a trite word to use in place of "can you actually write an exporter after 5 years, please?".

    I mean, I want the platform movement to have solids disabled/enables per character, not globally for every object. Someone hacked the platform object to add a workout. Ashley claims we shouldn't be hacking stock behaviours and couldn't understand what I wanted that functionality for. I gave endless examples. Others did too. Absolutely no reply from that point on.

    He still blames gpus for performance. He still claims html5 will be as good as native, but if anything it seems to be getting worse. There's no hit games using c2, the closest is rewriting it for performance improvement and because he can't port to console with c2.

    And I quoted the bitwig thread that followed this exact same chain of events for hem to read. Where are the actual replies from scirra regarding this pr catastrophe?

    Zebbi, haha nice.

    Seriously though, it's not at all true to say that the consumer shouldn't be a factor in deciding the price.

    This isn't businessman logic, this is idiot logic.

    If people don't pay for Construct 3 when it's released with this subscription based model, Scirra won't make money at all. I realize Republicans can be ignorant, but if there is anything they understand, it's how to get what they want.

    Yes, the post I quoted reminded me of these Christian conservatives that dislike open-source because it's taking food of the mouths of hard working Microsoft family men (not joking this was an actual blog I saw years ago).

    People should be complaining about business decisions that are better for business and worse for the customer. As many have asked: what about this announcement was benefitting me and not the company?

    I think it's ridiculous to be asking this question to the members, when it's not the community's decision. It's the business owners who make the business plans.

    It's like me making a poll about "should C3 be $99 a month or a $1 one time payment". Obviously what most people would want is the one that benefits themselves and not the business more.

    This rings like a business republican's answer.

    clickteam didn't listen and ashley had to leave and make his own engine so we have to do that => leave !

    poignant.

    I wouldn't trust those fake news sites, especially not today of all days:

    I wish. Oh, I wish, Jayjay

    Wait a minute, there's still time for them to reverse this and blame it all on a hoax, isn't there?

    I think I've posted my opinions to death in the other thread, but I'll do it here too.

    It's alright, I had fun reading the bitwig thread last week, I can see the psychology coming a mile away

    You keep your browser based app. I'm leaving.

    I hate this, i regret using this in the first place. I am cancelling my game for this sh**.

    its a better model why ? because updates are getting better like unity new updates every update is like a big new version

    but best model is unreal engine 4 pricing

    Dongles, Internet connection required, subscriptions, it's all just ways of punishing paying customers.

    I can't see that happening, otherwise Scirra would have charged for exporters and the like.

    When fibre optics get fast enough, they're planning on only allowing you to stream the software, so not only will you never own it but you'll never even download it.
