they've made like 1 billion dollars over the past 5 yearsWhy the fuck don't they just start over with a new engine that doesn't sucks ass instead of slapping bandaids every updatessurely with their accumulated experience it would be quite fast, right?
>Why the fuck they don't start all over again for the third timeAnon you baka retard
>>736483814the game was released in 2011why use the same engine it's obviously not working out anymore there's too much dead weight

>>736484406What if we just demolished Montreal and didn't rebuild it?
>>736483874historically, re-writes have never ever worked out basically any time they've ever been attempted.A codebase is actually just a shared understanding of a problem with a history of things figured out, some of which are opaque and poorly understood.when you re-write from scratch you throw out all the knowledge and run into all the same bugs and all the same architectural fork-in-the-road mistakes you did last time and the thing you get at the end has it's own problems which could be worse than the original.it's basically a universal truth in software dev and there's 30 years of blog posts warning against it now.
Can't think of a more useless developer out there. Not only that, a developer who hates his own players. Seriously, what the FUCK is taking them so fucking long? How the fuck is newer builds more broken than previous builds. I know this spaghetti code game is just held up by strings and glue, but what the fuck. Multiplayer is more laggy than ever, constant desyncs, no mods in multiplayer, more crashes than ever, and for what? So you can transfer some liquid into a different container and go back to the stone age? God what a waste of everyone's time. I really hope some other game just comes along so we don't have to be at the whims of the most retarded developer out there.

>>736486559NTA, and though Zomboid is a better simulator, 7d2d is turning out to be a lot more fun than zomboid. I'm just hoping State of Decay 3 surprises everyone.
