This needs to be done

Haha sorry for the clickbait title but hear me out xD

It would be cool If devs go on a discussion with top 3 guilds/ top 5 players once a week.

We need our questions to be answered, and the best representatives are the ones most invested in the game.

I am comparing it to League of Legnds' dev who are willing to be interviewed by famous Youtuber and they answer general question which the community have.

I know people post their thoughts and questions here but can we really be sure they are getting to devs? And do they end up replying?. So this way players might actually get to communicate with devs and complain/ give ideas to improve the game.

Peace

It would be cool, back then there was active devs in the game and talk with top players like zeus etc, now it wont happen sts maybe its busy somewhere else or they dont think the game is worth enough anymore.

Well we do seem to go through periods when questions get answered however during the last winter event, swamp temple event, activity from the devs was noticeably lacking not sure whether this was because there was some conflict of opinions during the winter event and it is noticed by players using the forum. Whatever the reason, the fact is that players like interaction with Devs and often when players get the answers to their concerns it confirms that Devs are listening. It may not always be the answer they’re looking for but it’s a response. Several threads were also getting hijacked by topics not concerning the thread and and ppl trading insults with each other which I personally do not like to see..it detracts from any type of reasonable discussion and intervention from devs may deter it

Devs used to stream during every new expan, new pet release and so on. Now it all just stopped.
They rely on people on forums for feedback not knowing that most here on forum don't even know anything about the game or they rely on people who apple-polish them.
If they actually bothered to do something like OP mentioned the game would actually start improving.

Both support and contact with the community has dropped severely the past few weeks, maybe something is happening back at HQ

Let's see if this thread gets noticed by the devs xD

I like your idea in general, however having a few 'top players/guilds' as ambassadors for the masses is a bad move in my opinion.
Some (not all) 'top players' are the worst, greediest and most selfish people in game and would likely make proposals that would benefit their own position instead of the population as a whole.

Yes to devs in game, Yes to better communication between devs and players, a big fat NO to any sort of player favouritism on the basis of APs/Gold/Plat spent/time played etc.

+1 for the majority of your idea :D

No offense but are you new in Arlor? Lol

I personally don't know Avaree, but know who she is ingame and have heard nothing but good things about her for years so yea...like I said not all are bad.

I'd like to see a Q+A with devs once a month, with questions from the community (questions could be voted on here, and also would give devs a chance to come up with answers) either streamed or added to world chat like announcements so everybody sees what is said.

If this was how it worked I'd have no problem with Avaree or any other player being the one to liaise with Devs.

I have been playing since 2012, been in countless guilds, and guild leaders are nice, not sure what u faced but there is a reason they can maintain their guilds :)

Good to see that u agree with most of my things, this should be spread around more so it can come to dev's attention

Each guild leader will represent their guild's objections or opinions.

I also think that the discussion should be committee based, top 5 guilds leader's will be there discussing together so there is a less chance that someone can get away with personal profit. The conclusion of the discussion will end up in being favor of all players :)

I started in 2013 and have seen 10's if not 100's of gm scammers/cheats/plat farmers. Seems you've been lucky.

Only 4-5 months ago my old gm took me for 30-40m in gold+gears, disbanded guild and changed ign xD

That explains ur view toward GM's xD but there is a general rule, if u are letting someone borrow your things they should give something in return of equivalent worth xD

I know many GMs who I could trust with all my gold/gears, doesn't mean they're all legit.

I dont really care that much about value of in game items/gold (its lonely at the top) for me its more about enjoying the game with friends and helping decent people when I can.

If I give something I don't expect to see it again, and if I do then bonus. It's a very effective (slightly expensive) way of finding trustworthy friends, atleast when I do get scammed (happens pretty often tbh lol) my Mrs sees how upset i am and lets me buy extra plat to support STS xD

Sorry, I'm kinda derailing your thread here... I'll stfu.

Good idea +1

The guild master of a top guild (a mage) sniggers at rogues who have lower damage than him and pesters players with high aps to join his guild. So, no. All guild masters aren't nice.
Agree with OP but interaction shouldn't be limited to specific people in the community. It can have damaging consequences

Need more attention xD

I saw Cinco in fester playing and talking with player during temple challenge and they still answer our question when its constructive and relevant.

It needs to be more public and more often, we all want to know answers

They "we're" really active on forums at one point but, then the forum got out of control so, guess they already tried that.

Im not sure how you determin which guilds are the top ones and why should they represent anyone but thier guildmates. The same goes for top players, is LB really what says how good you are? I think LB only shows you invested alot of time and maybe money in the game but thats about it.

Truth is esports like LoL is way diffrent than an rpg mmo game. Those top players can just go stream or something and talk abt things they heard, if u were to do that here the players would be spammed by private messages asking what the devs said etc.

I think the devs did fine job and the only questions they really need to answer is weither we can craft a recipe after event or weither x thing drops and thats abt it, with events atleast. When it comes to expansions they already do teasers/guides/ or just answer in chats sooo.

I was just suggesting, of course the details of the discussions are gonna be made public in some way probably by posting in forums. We just want confirmation that devs are listening, they probably dont have the time to respond to all discussions here

Well, if thats the case isnt it better to just list the questions in a thread and have devs answer it? Better than to make arrangments just to meet them in-game and practiclly get the same resualt

Can u be sure that devs are listening?

Imagine if u were a developer, would u be willing to respond to thousands of players or would u listen to one player who has a general idea of the real issues?

Just becuase your cause fits you doesnt mean its good for the community. Actually, it would be a 50/50 chance of being corrupt af.

Top 3 guild, or top players, means little to nothing. Im in neither and i would bet X gold i play at/or a above the skill level of alot of these people

Being in those categories only equates to having tons of spare time on the hands.i have seen countless top 3 lb guild members that play like fools, not even a joke man. I think taking info from all aspects of AL life is alot more important than focusing on the "elite" or "Pro" ppl haha. Just like any game

Terrible idea imo.

The Devs respond to my questions regularly.

Good idea to visit guilds. But, i think devs would get better results if they entered as an unknown player. (: A dev entering any guild, especially largely populated guilds, will miss many important suggestions, or questions, bc of the spam of opinions, questions and or suggestions .

I woud like to have couple beers with G and devs instead of talking about game :)

Best is just if they start with streaming again after release of new content. The known bugs can get addressed more quickly.
During lich release devs didn't even believe that lich was bugged, this can easily be avoided if devs play alongside the community, this will strengthen the bond between players and staff as well.
As it is right now with all the money grabs and "you'll be fine" many players don't think well of devs, this can easily be changed if devs show interest by doing stuff like Q&A more often, esp on twitch and what now, at the same time it will also promote the game.

On the other side, many players thinks well about devs. Or enjoy game.
speaking about bugs, there is the “Al technical issues and bugs” section, that is daily check and most of the time fixed.
Take your time to write there and if it’s a bug, will probably get fixed.
Can’t blame devs to stay away from “general discussion”.

Actually this issue was reported and seen by devs instantly but according to a dev the bugged lich was how it was meant to be so players continued on wasting hundreds of ankhs for nothing :)
Nothing wrong with appraising devs but when doing it blindly it might be considered bum-sucking.

Just saying that more accurate feedback about the game can be acquired when in contact with the majority of the community, by holding a dev stream rather than only using forums.

Agreeon the last statmnet.As Ava said before, I would prefer they interact with us as unknown players. More honest feedbacks.
And maybe because I understand how companies and workplaces are....I can’t do nothing but understand them.
And honestly they are doing a good job in the last couple years. 2018 was excellent overall imo. What was screwed up was because of players exploiting things, not bad ideas from Sts.
On top of it.....I’m really fed up with negativity and fights in all threads. I try to stay away most of the times, as it’s pointless (don’t feed the troll is one of my mantras) but sometimes I try to make them understand that not everyone that read forum is against something.
Anyway....thanks for your suggestions, is a pleasure to read your posts when they have this positives criticism, feedbacks and advises :)

Still open for discussion, what do u guys think?, and how can we bring it in dev's attention?

What about twinks? I know low level PVP died but some people might have ideas to revive it and top players are mainly PvE so how can these players convey their suggestions?

Like I said, this is not limited to what i have stated, they way to convey our message is open to discussion.

Like someone mentioned earlier, we make a thread which contains all our questions, and devs answer all the new questions and respond to suggestions weekly.
