Theres a big diff between us wanting to kill it we don’t…we want them to own up and fix the mess they made and stop the bs lying. when half your community tells you somethings broken and you reply with well it was a stealth change and then admit it was dumb but refuse to change/fix/revert? yeah that’s a great way to tell the players EFF off…
I left my negative review but I also writ a book on dozens of issues that any new player will encounter and wtf and quit. such as questing system being unrewarding or the azoth bs. or the trader nerf that only further makes low tier items the best to craft.
this game the last 4 weeks have been a disaster because of poor decisions. and it will get worse till they change the mindset…
players are right they are wrong and they know it but they also have said they really do not care. so yea a lot review bombed.
If they cared they would be doing and going out of their way over the weekend to get this crap sorted. just like many games have…devs have gave up there time to get it fixed on there time. is it wrong? a bit sure but the issues are the messup they made.
I used to run QA/GM over on rappelz before it was ran into trash. i used to be QA on lineage2 before they decided they no-longer cared for having a QA staff and wanted to rely solely on player reports which half will never report exploits so they can abuse it…
They have the option hell they could hire community QA staff from players who are interested in helping the game who would do it for free like some games have done and just toss them ingame shop currency for helping.
Instead we get a company that does not seem to take the right routes and ignores feedback like blizzard is doing. and how Ion even stated we hear you but we do not care this is what’s happening here and look how that’s going? blizzard lost a lot when ion made his statement.
In all honesty, AGS has lost already all they can do is fix the game and try to grab players interested as community QA and possibly gamemasters to police bots or being able to report them to an online staff with proof that has the bot nuked.
It’s very clear amazon has no idea what they are doing. they have the passion but they do not have the mindset right. blizzard did for 10 years then lost it and now it’s killed half the games.
they can learn from the last 7 years from blizzard. they can learn from BDO as well.
I fear though they do not want to.
I wish this game had a Community Staff system by community picking players to ease the burden of the AGS staff. i’d go out of my way to put half my time into testing . games I currently play beside this have them two do. and they select players as less powerful members of the team to test x area before a patch goes live so they can see if it’s ready.
Such as crafting. or trade post etc so.
Issue is amazon seems understaff and does not care atm. which is odd for a company who owns hundreds of billions.
