@TheAndyCortez Thanks, Andy. If the people complaining about "woke stuff in mu gameZ" would see who writes, illustrates, programs, tests and ships their games. I think they would lose their minds. This is a highly creative industry driven with passion - who do you think works in it?

@Standingfast85 I don't agree with that statement, but I also get it. I just rarely encounter Paik and even then, it's not always to my disadvantage. I just know to expect someone running around the corner then. Mackay is worse, b/c of the grappling hook. But Falck with ammo crate?! My jam. :D

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@ArmoredKill Thanks for asking!
1. Remove aim assist/auto rotation from high powered scopes (controller player here) - like in BF5.
2. Make the movement tighter (see BF5)
3. No armor plates.
4. Limit weapon types to classes again.
5. Server browser.
+ Remove wingsuit & grapple hook.

@MinnMaxShow Red Dead Redemption 2 and now it’s one of my favourite games of all time.

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@Dachsjaeger It sucks, but I also work in games and know how hard it is to get a game done & released let alone successful. We did it for 10+ platforms, got decent scores and were in a great technical state, but the game was almost instantly forgotten. Yeah...cool. We crunched for that.

@MichaelPHuber Are you kidding me? How good was that? Great job, Huber and Bosman. :)

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@danhett Good luck, Dan! You'll do a smashing job. :)

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@MinnMaxShow I'm doing my part: finally playing through RDR2 after abandoning it in 2018.

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@JLHGameArt I‘m sure you are fine. 😊

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@danhett I love this!

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@th_g Wenn mal wieder eine abfällt, nehme ich gerne was ab. 😊

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@_jjju_ @smk_gaming_ Looking forward to checking it out. I loved it the way it was in BFV and I hope it will get me there as much as possible. Thanks for the work, Julian. :)

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@agarcellano Not quite as drastic, but stores in Red Dead 2 charge your more, if you are bad and less if you do good. Not sure about what happens at the extremes of the scale, though.

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@yacobg42 How is it over there?

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@JLHGameArt This year at the imposter syndrome talk at GDC: 95% of people raised their hands, when asked if they have it. Me included ofc. But you are doing great, Joe.

@JanDavidHassel @EA_DICE gg

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@MrProWestie As always, taking a part of a quote and showing it out of context easily makes it sound bad. You can also read it as super self-aware: „We failed to tell players how we think they should be used.“. But sure - outrage at devs is cool and brings clicks.

@darkosupe @JLHGameArt When making a movie, they should build every mug, chair, door, window, vehicle, house and the world itself from scratch. If not, they are just cheapskates.

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@SilkOCE @EA_DICE @T0TALfps @DRUNKKZ3 The thing about game development is, that you can "just do it like this other game", but it does not work together or simply does not FEEL right. So, nice list and I agree with a lot of points, but it is no guarantee at all.

[Gerhard Köpke @GerhardKoepke]

@JLHGameArt @bl00dberri You got the job. Again.
