Steel said :
Quote:
We tried to do that with the end reward list items in Wheloon and the Storm Horns; those items had one affix that was much higher than other versions of that affix at-level.

Players pretty universally claimed to hate them while continuing use them as the standard of balance for all future loot (i.e. "I can get STR +8 at level 15, it should be +8 on ALL ML15 items").

We're not likely to do that again anytime soon.



Bet he wont respond to these ;

Quote:
I don't see you guys polling or doing surveys so you guys appear to be using VERY subjective non empirical data. Sev did exactly the same thing recently when he said that players like collecting BB streak numbers, even though this system has become harmful to the game... Is the number of people who love collecting steak numbers large enough to keep a system that is harmful to grouping behavour? I didn't see a survey there either.



Quote:
This is a very good statement.

I always wonder, why surveys are not made BEFORE they bring to Lamannia any crazy or ruining game idea...
Like the Devs know EXACLY what players want/thinking WITHOUT asking them... Telepaths? Wink


And the winner....

Quote:
It comes down to inventing "data" that fits what they want it to fit. We have no way to disprove it. It's been going on in this game for years.



Nice spin control, Steel.  Grin

Sounds like the peasants are getting restless.

How can they not believe the devs?  They're gods?
They're omniscient aren't they?

They're is going in hard on Steel.  Nice to see.

Devs are to DDO player base as Walmart bathroom meth cooks are to addicts.

Doesn't really matter what anyone wants, you get what they give you.

Then you're told it is somehow your own fault that you don't like it.......... and yet enough keep going back for more to keep the business open.

I think that analogy is a bit harsh?    Shocked


I would argue that drug dealers respect their customers more than Turdbine because they understand their business better.
Dead/lost customers don't make you any money.

Elite is tied to bravery streaks (with bonuses), favor, and other rewards that current players are basing their game play and game time around. The current game demands playing through content for the very first time on elite to get these bonuses as well, thus adding to the expectation that players should be able to complete new content on elite. That's a good thing for many of our players. Making elite even more difficult is not something we want to do at this time.

There, Sev_Pay said it. Goodbye DDO, you will never be better game.
Smh.

I can't even begin to start reading that thread.

Anyway, it's my impression that the devs make assumptions based on the forums threads. When they make statements like "this is what the players want", it might be that they read a forum comment somewhere where someone said this. I saw this happen last year, one of the devs said that "this is what ppl want".. based on one comment.

The only reason they appear to accept one opinion as the majority is because it suits their already formed agenda.

I don't believe that they're that naive to accept one post as "the players".

Shhh. Else you will spoil future drama from all the idiots who get on the forums and vomit out "but this is what you guys asked for!111!!"

They dont realize they are doing the work for Sev/Steel/Varg/etc, just by saying shit like that.

Right right.. I forgot about that. Their "this is what the players want", is pretty much bs...

I remember from last year when they said that, I was looking for any thread on the ddo forums saying that this is what the players want, and like said, I found just one comment.

So, yeah, you're right.

I can admit when I'm wrong or someone else is right. Me am big man, balls hang freely.

I don't take Ironclan or anyone to heart. Not on the internet. No matter how retarded the shit he says is, this was amusing and correct. Read Thaz's post above, she says the same thing that Iron did.

true enough.  that dipdouche has posted a couple of things recently that weren't completely idiotic and made me think that I'm either going crazy or Neil deGrasse Tyson fucked iron in the ear and finished in his brain.

oh and the balls thing.  that's cool bro but better switch to tighty-whatevercolors now (dark hides the pee stains) or you might end up with one of these later on.  gravity is a bitch yo.

Boxers vs. Briefs

One of the most common causes of low sperm count is easily reversible with a simple lifestyle change. The testes must exist at an optimal temperature for sperm production. The testes are meant to be several degrees lower than the rest of the body, and a change of just a few degrees can cause low sperm count.

Let em hang free and clear!

Briefs and tight underwear can cause an increase in the temperature of the testes, causing it to rise above that optimal range. Therefore, you should wear boxers and sufficiently loose pants when you and your partner are trying to conceive. In addition, you should avoid spending time in hot tubs and saunas.


Then again some people should be forced to wear em tight just so prevent corruption of an already fucked up gene pool.
