even a poll would be nice but they dont bother with that ether. no direct questions and answers.
just getting the CMS to collect data and thats it.
(love you CMs i feel really bad some times for you)
communication is a two way street and only we are the only ones talking.
A poll would certainly be nice. I know of a few other MMOs that do this sort of thing.
The problem with introducing new features in a PTR with a planned release is that any significant changes cannot be made at that point. Small bug fixes sure, but that’s it. There’s no time for the feedback and QA process.
Truth have been said. I hope AGS listen to us.
Right i get that they are using the PTR not for feed back but for bug testing only. its still utterly disappointing to see any feed back not warranting even a single comment back.
it doesn’t require a 1h long video.
videos makes rebuttals and a conversation impossible.
Well, fixing bugs, bots and balance in February is a mistake. Your community is telling you they want fixes asap not when you get around to it. By the time you wake up to the fact your game is dying because you ignored the player base their will be no population left in the game.
Well, as players we can only provide feedback on what we see/feel. It is their job to take that and do with it what they want.
I think they have the business side of this on lock. And they have a healthy(debatable) stream of feedback coming in, which is what any design team needs to be able to pivot and make the necessary decisions.
You can disagree and suggest what they do as a business but I will stay on the side of giving feedback based on how I feel. It is their job to take the feedback and do with it what they will.
They are a team of professional game developers and designers. They see things with a 360 view and are lucky to have a community so passionate about the game.
No idea why you think you need/can advise them on this sort of thing haha.
I dont think that professionals will go with GS upgrade having such many problems with game.
BINGO.
This.
lol, this game does not have 10 million active players.
maybe 200k at best. Plus take it into your own regions account, you don’t see half those players anyways
take into account bots as well
More like a list of issues this team will continue to “forwarded to dev team”
right in to the trash can fuck the community we know what is better for you.
mentality from this dev team.
But look shiny thing we ran Myrk and could not find the way back to the city…
Just here to add they need to fix the map. We’ve been living with fake invasions plaguing the map for months, and now corruption portals just don’t appear on the map anymore. wtb working map pls
I didn’t mean to suggest what they should or should not do, maybe I didn’t phrase it right. I was just being realistic and “fair”, the community is pretty toxic (not something exclusive to NW and electronic games btw), the current trend is people behaving like online spoiled brats: “I want what I want and I want it now”… not inviting for publishing a roadmap that will get crushed no matter what’s the content and crushed again over and over to any tiny deviation.
it would be cool if they added the ability to use Trade Skill Master in this game. Id write a mod for that.
All the other TLDR stuff I didn’t read cuz it was too “fix this” ranty
Hi, me again.
Spending “a lot of time” on a decision doesn’t make it a good decision 
As you’ve pointed out, the players are pretty vocal about this change they don’t like. Many have even offered similar ideas on ways to repurpose current plans.
And they’re right. There’s no need for a GS increase. Let’s take this opportunity to break away from the old habit of applying band-aids to bad ideas and preemptively change things so that it becomes a good idea from the start!
agreed stop releasing stuff in a broken game
So much of the game foundation needs fixing before building on top of it.
agreed just fucking fix the game instead of just piling trash ontop of the burning trash heap that is PVP right now.
This is on the money
Even their update schedule reeeeeeks of “sprints”.
Well this way…if (when) they have bugs in the new content…they can fix it.
