Yeah, Dangar linked this in the thread about the changes...

Online petitions are useless really... As are 99% of petitions. Online or not.

Stupid idea.

People who played the new skins like them. People who bitch never have.

The game isn't even released and yet there is a petition going around to halt/change design development? That's pretty bad. Here's a great solution: don't like the new design? Don't buy the game! That will show Valve!

Proof of this is the Diablo 3 petition, but you would think people would be happy that valve is going to distance to make this a good game, most developers would not redo something that is already done so that they can save time and money.

It's a good thing that valve thinks about its customers.

No, they're the actual new models. They've still got some refinement and all that jazz to go through but they're permanent.

Yeah, that D3 petition is stupid, we've seen maybe .001% of the game's environment and people are already complaining that it isn't dark enough...
I'd hate to be a developer for this stuff; you will never keep everyone happy...
The "hardcore fans" want you to release the same game you released last time and that's just fucking stupid... [/rant]

As Valve have said; its a gameplay decision based on the opinions of people who have played the game.

Not the fashion sense of fans with no experience in-game.

Exactly, there is a reason why people playteset the game - and their feedback is crucial for the development of the game.

Personally, I don't mind the new look of the skin. Let Valve develop the game, that is one thing they are good at.

That's not alot....very few signatures. They would need everybody in the entire world to have the skins the old way.

I have seen online petitions get thousands of signatures, and it still did not make a difference.
