We indeed made many improvements for Maniaplanet 4 and we still intend to make some small ajustements, especially on channels. It's part of a bigger plan that we can't disclose soon. It's the 'big step' rather than small step strategy. We did not expected Lagoon to sell well before it's release and it was already something apart from the plan. Would MP4 have been popular (I was saying 10% chances max internally) maybe it would have change our bigger plan, but the result is that we even lowered the effort, like not going to MP5 with UI etc. So, we will do what we can without slowing down the ambitious unnanounced project. The studio is 4 times bigger than when we arrived at Ubisoft and really powerful. It was complicated to do everything at the same time, now I want to bring something outstanding to mania players.Miss wrote:Honestly, I understand Nadeo if their focus is somewhere else. They made MP4 in an effort to really fix the game - which, honestly, they did, they fixed a LOT of major issues in MP3 and I love Nadeo for that.
But if their focus is somewhere else because Lagoon/MP4 didn't make much sales, this is totally understandable. I hope whatever their plans are next will bring in some more funding so they can fix the issues the community really wants.
Communication requires to wait before revealing it, and I hope you understand.
