CIG should continue doing livestreams, regardless of latest events

CIG should continue doing livestreams, regardless of latest events

This is only a personal opinion, but shared by many people, or mindset of many people. Latest events were a bit of ... not how expected to flow and even if people will spread negativity, there are positive views about this event. CIG should continue doing devstreams, Digital Extreme (Warframe) and other developers/game makers are doing these types of streams, regardless if they are successful or not. Some may be, some may be not.

It will connect with playerbase, even if it went a bit on wrong foot, but stating from beginning or clarifying some aspects, would have avoided a lot of hassle. Let this be a lesson for the future.

For example, how about CIG should try doing Tactical Support Group? I also have a proposition, to pick Lars or Poetepoet from CIG staff (https://www.twitch.tv/poetepoet/about) for this event, among the other party members, Poet streams a lot and has experience in streaming and Star Citizen and has some FPS experience and this could connect with us backers even more. CIG will see that there are problems with the mission, but that's exactly what it should be expected "we want to share same experience you encounter, whether good or bad and improve it", they will see that Tranquility will not repair ships in hangar or that Gabe loves to fight Vanduul or even ram the mand this will create a good opportunity to solve the issues we players encounter in one of the most important missions in Star Citizen. Honorable mention - Hangar door will not accept the yellow card or won't open to get the A rated modules. But this is good, we can have a positive outcome. Imagine it, crewing ships, presenting the intended multiplayer, with goods and bads.

In all honesty, CIG should do more livestreams, because we need to connect with the game developers more, in a more positive manner. Sure, we make fun of the game how a buggy mess it is, sometimes we are mad at CIG because we expect something and it's not delivered. Be mad at CIG, never at individual developers, they want just as much as us to have a working game.

I hope that from all this downside it became, something good will arise. We learn from our mistakes.

I just want to add a little bit more: we as players or backers, feel disconnected with the game makers, we need and feel the need to connect more with them and livestreams are just the medicine the doctor orders. Again, even if they won't end up well, it doesn't matter, acknowledge mistakes and move on to improve. We as humans are "designed" by nature to better ourselves.
