Ok, what's goin on?
by Unholycow | 25/01/2008 21:23:01 Hey peeps, ever notice how if there's idle chat going on you'll see a blizzard poster throwing their 2 cents in, but when it comes to things like adding new content, justifying/placating complaints that players have, or General discussion about REAL game issues that you NEVER see a blizzard poster putting in their 2 cents? Come on guys! what are your feelings regarding AV? Why is it that whenever we ask for something in forums, we get the response "That's a great idea, but we're not doing it because we're going to do THIS, which is something like 5% of the players are going to actually utilize"? Are you actually going to add more low to mid game content or are you focused exclusivly on PvP and top level character stuff ONLY? Here's the really big questions tho I've asked, and asked, and asked, and blizzard NEVER responds to because that would constitute a DEFFINATE answer.. Who EXACTLY do we have to talk to to FINALLY get our suggestions heard, because alot of this stuff that we're asking is really easy to get incorporated into the game and all we get from you guys is "post in the forums, we love your comments", which as I've seen translates into "Post in the forums, it's easier to ignore what you guys have to say there".. Honestly, I was Psyched for TBC, I thought it would be a much better release than it was.. I expected new instances for all levels, more depth to tradeskilling, a little more uniqueness in the factions as far as gameplay.. What we GOT? More Vanilla gameplay because now you can play Paladin, Shaman, pretty much ANYTHING the EXACT SAME WAY on either faction.. EVERYONE looks the same.. still.. all the real content that got added in was all for L70 characters (which you managed to make INCREDIBALLY easy to level from 60 to 70). With the WotLK expansion I'm seeing very little I'm interested in now.. Deathknight.. wow.. I've been waiting for this class ever scince launch date for the Undead (being as it makes perfect sense) but for some reason now they're going to be playable by horde AND alliance.. Couldn't be Vanilla without that huh?.. Destructable terrain? probally going to be limited to a new 80 only battleground that has minimal effect on the battle whatsoever... New dances and appearances? OOHH!! THAT"S SO COOL!! and I'll bet their release of the LE version will include yet another useless pet instead of something GOOD like a trinket that increases in power as you level up and adapts to the class it's equipped to (kinda like some of the stuff that EQ had when you bought ANY of their releases, LE just had better stuff). So.. Here's my REALLY big question.. what incentives tdo I have to buy this new xpac on release date to get the LE addition when all I get out of it are minor asthetics and much higher price? esp when as a mid level altoholic I won't be seeing ANY of this content for quite some time and are going to care due to blizzard starting to show a trend on making the previously "Leet" stuff OBSOLeet.. Blues? wanna shed some light on THIS topic? I'm gonna tank in BERSERKER STANCE!! *Crunch* |
by Nethaera | 25/01/2008 21:39:26 We can only discuss so much based on opinion and need to be careful about it. :) It's easy for someone to think that if we like something a certain way that it means the company feels the same. As spokespersons for Blizzard Entertainment, we need to weigh and measure what we say in every post and put aside personal opinions in order to be our most effective for both the company and the community. We participate in the threads we can and work on other projects as well that are the seeds of more information to come. We've answered this question many times before and many people have many opinions on what exactly is "enough". Some would rather we be neither seen or heard unless we have new information, and others much prefer our participation in the forums wherever we can. I much prefer being seen and letting people know we are still here and paying attention to what is being said rather than have people wonder if we're in hiding. ;) If you have constructive feedback for the community team, please feel free to email to wowcmfeedback@blizzard.com. |

We have a passion for our company, for our jobs, for the community, and for the game. The good moments will always outweigh the bad. Don't worry. I love what I do and the people I work with. I couldn't ask for more. |
