Influence of forums on AL

I agree when sts fix bugs glitches etc etc I disagree a lot when sts buffs or nerfs weapons, pets or make tradable before untradable items when they already are in game only because a group of plat spenders complains. The halloween vanities now tradable is a very bad thing in my opinion, they were inteded to be untradable so exclusive to only who played hard to get them like season banners are, now rich people can buy them and many players that maybe before weren't intrested to lb, now they are because they want to invest gold to sell later those exclusive vanities and gain money but they find themselves in late of many hours (and it's not relevant that there are many days to the end of the event because lb players are already at 25+ kpoints and it's not easy to close the gap if you start now). On the other hand now who is on lb may have many more competitors and it could need a lot more gold to stay in top 25, gold that maybe they don't have ready and they risk to loose all they have spent (I wish luck in other things to who will arrive 26°, top 25 get a banner and 3 set of vanities and he gets nothing)
In conclusion it's a good thing to hear what people think and it's good to change the game if feedback shows unbalance, it isn't in my opinion if rules change when the game is already started and some get advantage and other disadvantage of this in terms of game currency or possibility to get exclusive items. This game has a great potential but isn't well exploited many times.

Sam just hire a guy there in the sts studio, his job will be:
1. playing Arcane Legends all day.
2. Gather feedbacks.
3. Keep mouth shut about who he is.
4. Clean the office.
5. Make coffee for you in the morning or when you stay up late and grab you donuts at the store.


problem solved, GG.

Oh finally someone had the courage to voice this out! Thank you for doing this! I actually am in private message with a dev/mod about the very same topic and unfortunately theres no positive reply to me.

Anyway, for me AL is ruled by not the majority. sorry STS but i think you should/can take negative criticisms about the inconsistencies of the decisions that you have made these past few weeks or months. To me, you take 80% of the cries voiced out in the forums and mostly those gets implemented. I know its hard to balance the game between spenders and non-spenders ( inc. those who spend moderately ) but at this rate you listen to the top ranked spenders most of the time.
Sam said that they based their decisions on forum feedbacks and support ticket submission but can you be 100% sure about the identities of the players sending tickets/and forum feedbacks? are they different or the same person? Some folks will go to great lengths to persuade you out of your game plan just to get what they want.

PS:
If devs play the game, i urge them to play on normal accounts not their dev accounts as they know the effects of having red/yellow name in game. Come down to the bottom of the pyramid and experience the same thing normal players experience. Join the dungeons, merc, observe the consignment store, and PVP. You will see the real color of people in PVP. perhaps you will also see the same people that you have been listening to this past month or so.

Forgot to mention the huge " nerf threads " thats becoming a trend in the forums lately.

just my 2cents, i would be banned anyway.

My question now is: how can STG bridge this gap with the current manpower that they have?

I agree with everything and may I also add

"Nekro got nerfed hard to almost worthless before release"

and now we have a Blinky basically almost same as Nekro. If it wasn't nerfed it would have been fine by now as everything is basically catching up to it on stats especially with the new damage gem and all.

Don't talk about other pets...instead of buffing like we asked for in the first place, they'll just go and nerf the item we are comparing to

#bulwark lol..

We'll just keep sluggin' away. To be frank, to get Winter out in a timely manner we won't have the bandwidth to do a public playtest of it or the Planar Tombs. We'll just have to react once it goes live as best we can.

too much crying going on nowadays.

Lmao @there is a perfect word for this but it can't be used on forums

Then again it's really cool that we can talk directly to the STG employees and they actually consider our ideas. I'm sure if I emailed Rocksteady and told them that Bane just punch Batman into the abyss they'd say "lol what can you do"

Just please dont rush and please dont make changes before any thing released based on the opinions on others... let us play with what you have in store for us and keep a open ear out on genuine glitches or bugs.


Its all I ask for this christmas =)

I like the way SAM REPLIES. Anyway good thread.
I myself thought some people didn't participated Lb contest this event as it would be mostly gold sink. Then they made the vanities tradable.
Good thing they did the change at very early stage!

coz it was strongly suggested by the leaderboard players that the vanity should be " tradeable ". check the thread for it.
