Game Development: Every Little... + Development Thoughts

[Toorimakun]

Can we use some actual numbers instead of guesstimates?

well now i feel your just trying to find holes... every village is different.
but for example it took 4 of my villagers at 20-30 biles like 9 minutes to destroy a smelter.

No, I'm just trying to talk about facts and not about personal, subjective opinions backed by no actual evidence. It's a long time since I have seen any raid in action or tested raiding mechanics. So if someone judges those then I want to know at least what was the situation that caused such judgement

but for example it took 4 of my villagers at 20-30 biles like 9 minutes to destroy a smelter.

You think it was too easy or too hard? I think it would take some time as well for raiders. I strongly doubt they would want to destroy everything if they only wanted to raid and steal. But if they attacked you to destroy you then they probably would take the time.

Was just some comments from paradox about the break up with Seatribe with the salem project, at their twitch show (btw. those two guys that broadcasted do not like each other, kept interrupting each other)
From what i could understand, they (paradox) was not pleased with progress, so they came down to two things. (they apparently already had an additional person helping Jorb and Loftar with the game.)
Either Boosting the game with more people or leave it, so that jorb and loftar could continue their work.

i just find it a bit disturbing that he mention that they were the ones to convince Jorb and Loftar to start up on Salem in the first place,
what happens next? will there be a patch or do we have to start up at their original game.

time will tell. interesting future ahead for this game!
Dear Al Mighty jorb. Praise he who created this wonderful game. Give us a sign of the future, Free us from the evil forum trolls and bring forth some rules that cannot be bend, and free us from the temptations of Loftar
amen

Majority of the 36000 registered accounts dont play or like Salem for one reason or another.

35,900 of which are Internet ad/spam bots.

Thanks, interesting stuff, but kinda adds more questions than answers. Looks like they didn't really like talking about it.

[Toorimakun]

did they remove the video?... i cant find it.

yes, it seems they have removed the video for some reason,
before anyone starts jumping to any conclusions, they were talking about a lot of things, Incl a game they call Cartel, Based on the story and playstyle of the original Syndicate.
could be some of that made them delete it
