StrikeOfLight Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Q: If you could sit down and speak to a SWTOR developer face-to-face for 30 seconds of time to give him/her feedback on the game... What would you, personally, tell them? GO! Edited February 13, 2012 by StrikeOfLight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadCuzBad Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 What the heck did you guys do for the past few years? And why did you not add all the stuff SWG had in it too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldBenSmokin Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Sorry that you thought that you could develop a quality game under the EA umbrella. Hope you learned your lesson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leggomy Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Love this game ignore the people who want it to be WoW or SWG. Doing a great job as far as I am concerned keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrikeOfLight Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) ...Hey man, your game was great but I understand that the EA overlords did a ton of damage and limited your potential. Don't take the hate personally. It wasn't your fault. AND you can STILL PULL IT OFF! Just work hard! Keep your chin up, listen to the community, and try to do what they feel would help. At the same time, be creative! We love surprises and thrills that we didn't see coming! Your game sucks pretty bad right now, but keep on going. If you work hard enough you can accomplish great and incredible things. Get that spark back that you used to have in the past!

StrikeOfLight Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Do you work for Bioware? Heck no, man. I was recently mad with a lot of the things they have done. At the same time, I still liked a lot of the game and had a lot of fun. In the end, my sub has just about a week before it runs out. Kind encouragement goes much further than meanness.

ForceCowboy Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I WANT MY WARZONE WINS TO MUFFUGGIN COUNT. There, that would take about 30 seconds if I said it slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShonaChaos Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Heck no, man. I'm furious with a lot of the things they have done. I just recognized that kind encouragement goes much further than meanness. You have a terrible attitude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drhay Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I would ask them to keep improving the game, especially performance / optimization wise, and to keep putting out new content for people to do at max level. I would ask them to consider ways to increase the per planet population during leveling and to increase the rewards for heroic quests to encourage the 30-some people on a planet to not blow me off when I say 'LFG for ______'. That would about cover my 30 seconds I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razot Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I would need at least a minute tbh.. Cause i would be laughing so hard for about 59 seconds.. Then i would just sigh and walk away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djsmileey Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I would thank them for the wonderful game, tell them to keep doing what they are doing and make sure they keep in touch with the community. Then I would tell them to go on to this thread and remind them that the DEV's are taking Q&A's and answering them directly. That this post is just a waste of time because it's mostly aimed and providing an outlet for the people who would rather hang out in a forum than play. Note: I am at work, so playing that 'you're here' card doesn't mean a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomeclipse Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) You're also foolish if you think that any amount of encouragement can salvage this game. You realise they have 1.7 MILLION active subs, right? Please help us make it 1,699,999 Edited February 13, 2012 by randomeclipse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrikeOfLight Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 You're also foolish if you think that any amount of encouragement can salvage this game. Well, if I WAS talking to them face to face, that is what I would say. *shrug* I understand what you are saying, though. The game needs a ton of work that no one developer can do, no matter how motivated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plutorix Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) I'd say: You guys did good with the limitations you had (EA ;p), 200 millions looks big but when you compare that to millions paying 15 bucks a months for 7 years it looks tiny (I'd like to know the total cost of WoW over the years). The story is good just extend it a little longer and don't read the forums, all there is in the forums is impatient folks who don't understand the scale of building a game like this. (ok I'm done with my apologist comment, I just have to support other software devs when I can ;p) Edited February 13, 2012 by plutorix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
