Unless she was out of the office, replying on her phone, I can't see any possible reason she couldn't just tab up a) the official forum post and b) the game and compare the two. Unless she doesn't have a GM account that lets her log in to any server, which would be ridiculous.<br /><br />Even on the WvW forums, which are as salty as they come, Gail generally gets cut a lot of slack but I've noticed that increasingly she seems vague and confused about a lot of things. Which, let's be honest, just about describes the general situation at ANet over the last few years.Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-73072622103052853222018-12-24T00:22:24.296+00:002018-12-24T00:22:24.296+00:00Here’s the part that boggles me extremely in the W...Here’s the part that boggles me extremely in the WvW posts from Gaile you linked. She keeps asking the forum goers to verify if they really mean “hey, this is broken, it’s a real bug” as opposed to “this is broken, this sucks, I hate it” type of complaint. Apparently if the quantity of feedback that keeps stressing the former than the latter, then it’s worth reporting the thread for someone more conversant in the topic to take a look at, else dismiss as unfounded.<br /><br />Um, haven’t they ever heard of logging in to check for themselves? Objectively check before sending the message higher up? It either suggests laziness (crowdsourcing reports from disgruntled users is easier?) or the lack of any such testing/simulation tools/accounts for those lower down the totem pole (such that they have zero choice but to crowdsource reports) or both.<br /><br />But then you realize that she’s been with the same company for 18 years. She was a lot sharper and on the ball in GW1 days, but I think those days have passed and priorities and policies regarding their customers/community have changed over time.Jeromaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02206083433625986970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-57930030839355096472018-12-23T22:43:46.811+00:002018-12-23T22:43:46.811+00:00I still plan on trying it.

It looks interesting and I don't particularly care if it re-uses anything from ARK because I never bought or played ARK so it will all be new to me. I'm going to wait a while though. <br /><br />It's just crazy that they let this happen after making such a big fuss about keeping it secret until they were ready to launch. Why not wait til they were *actually* ready? It just seems so unecessary. And why launch (even Early Access launch) the week before Christmas anyway?

Forbes even had an article about it, calling it the worst video game launch ever, which is a pretty steep item to prove.Wilhelm Arcturushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07033496821708933394noreply@blogger.com
