Now you're just being silly :P

Clearly you don't. My movie allegory is about businesses should be making products their customers want, that they directly ask to be made for them. In the case of movies, ticket purchases. The volume of sales for movies like Avatar vastly exceed movies like Yogi Bear. Cryptic is making us more Yogi Bears instead of more…
-
Not doom to movies in general, but overall, the box office would lose out big time. The amount of people that would pay to see Avatar, The Avengers, Star Trek in 3D IMAX let alone plain old regular showings vs the amount of people that would pay to see ...idk, Love Actually in 3D IMAX or something, or just wait and get it…

Communication like you describe there would be fantastic. Having pre-tested quality patches would be beyond my wildest dreams, considering the things we've seen so far. I can appreciate the withholding information for the shock-and-awe approach, I hope that is what is happening here. I would happily eat my words if this is…
-
I can agree with all that, but it's kind of insulting to have them come out and say "look at all this stuff we've been working on" and it doesn't contain any of the things they had previously said they were working on.
-
60 days after official launch would be August 20th. If they have it ready, and it's been more than 60 days of Hero Founder exclusivity, why wait? If Fury of the Feywild comes out before August 20th, why not toss it in that major content update? It is directly contradicting what is in the FAQ.
-
I didn't want community feedback. "@Cryptic/PWE" means I was addressing someone from their community, with a request to know why the were putting so much effort on "Product Y" and not the highly requested content. When someone tells me SOON I don't expect half a year or more to pass before I hear any more information about…
-
From the Extended FAQ: So what, they stopped their plans for this and put it off to the side to work instead on moon and sun elves? This post was made in November of 2012. Founder pack exclusivity is now beyond 60 days. Yes, I realize they said post-launch, but the reasoning is for Founder pack exclusivity. Hero Founders…
-
You are absolutely correct. But since they released the Fury of the Feywild information, and it has no information about any of this, how are we to know they are even working on it? How are we to know that our requested products are being worked on? I would be happy with solid information that they are working on these…
-
yes, they are doing some of the things the community wants. The companion upgrade for example, is another one of the top requested things. My point is that they have not addressed the new class/paragon paths issues, when in almost every interview they have done recently they keep saying "soon", and why they have been…
-
I'm assuming they aren't because they have zero communication about these issues, which leads me to believe they aren't.
-
It doesn't matter if I understand it or not. If I'm being asked to draw a picture of a house and a separate picture of a person, and I spend more time and effort drawing the house, which do you think is going to be completed first?
-
That is the point. Why are they coding Fury of the Feywild instead of the new classes and paragon paths. Why are they not fixing the existing coding that is currently bug-addled and getting worse by the patch.
-
They have an ambigious date of "Summer 2013". And they wouldn't have to drop anything if they had started working on things people wanted before Open Beta even began.
-
If they allocated the team dedicated to the Fury of the Feywild update to coding the new classes and paragon paths, we'd have them much sooner than later. Fact. If the guys in the suits base their business model on NOT prioritizing content the community asks for, they are doomed to fail. I understand the difference very…
-
I don't know what they have planned that they have not released information for. If they do have these planned, one would think they would have added it to the Fury of the Feywild preview page, or have better communication about it. I wasn't even online during the time window that whole fiasco occured on. I was on a beach…
-
If the "majority" do not voice their concerns/opinions on the medium given to us, ie: the official forums, what sort of majority are they? The people that take the time to put their feedback on this forum are people that care enough to have a voice that deserves attention. If you went to Taco Bell and ordered a #6,…
-
That's kind of the point, they're putting in things that could have waited until after they delivered things we want. No one said we wanted all this stuff at once. Moon and Sun elves could have waited until after the first planned race was released. The "Coming Soon" race in the character creation screen has the shape of a…
-
Every time they "fix" something, they break something else. Auction House, Gateway, Guardian Fighter block, logging in, their new content GG was disabled less than 24 hours after being pushed out to live. This is a whole other subject. I'm focusing on their promise of "new content" that isn't the new content the majority…
-
I know they said "60 days", but why? Why 60 days? Menzoberranzan Renegades are Drow, so the models are there. The racial bonuses are basically the same so clearly the content is there. Why are they holding onto something that high in demand/popular and throwing moon & sun elves out first? And if the mentality was "we want…
-
The planned expansion contains none of the 3 most requested things in my original post. It's quite obvious they are not considering what we want, and are implementing a whole bunch of other things to try to appease us; to distract us from the fact that they either can't or won't deliver on their promises of "soon".…
-
I wasn't expecting it to happen fast. I just think it's a bit ridiculous they are allocating resources on this module1 content when it doesn't contain the things we've been asking for for more than 2 months. If they took all the people working on module1 and said "finish ranger" its far more likely we would be getting…
-
It's because they either a) have absolutely no QA testers or b) have the WORST QA testers
-
I read your entire post, just quoting the end so you know I'm talking to you without quoting a wall of text so to speak. I appreciate everything you have said, and no I am not offended. I used the Walmart analogy simply to paint a picture of a business using an absolutely ridiculous tactic for no discernable reason. Why…
-
I know right? Shame on me for thinking the customer was always right. =D
-
I have Menzoberranzan Renegade as a race. If I wanted to play a Drow, I could. I'm arguing on behalf of the player community as a whole. It is one of the most requested features; it is something they have stated would be released in the future, but were very unclear as to when. One person said Hero Founders would have…
-
They sure as hell did not develop the game to not turn a profit. By telling people there were no character wipes,they were saying several things "you may now play our game and spend money on items; your time and efforts will not be wiped, anything you do henceforth is permanent" and thus, we opened our wallets. Yes, it is…

Imagine the Walmart near you just added a new section. In this new section are brand new never before seen items, samples, and deals. They make it sound super cool and fun and amazing to be in this new section. Only to get in this new section, you have to join a club, a group of other shoppers, a bunch of people you don't…
-
Whoever made that post should have omitted the whole last half of the sentence. "We're getting ready for the release of Gauntlgrym, Alchemy, and a few other surprises tomorrow when Neverwinter launches!" What surprises? There WERE NO SURPRISES. It's exactly what I'm talking about with bad communication.
-
You are missing the point. The point is not that I have a jaded background when it comes to groups and guilds in online games and prefer to go it alone if I can help it. The point is that the developer put in an unnecessary gate to new content. There is NO LOGICAL REASON to have to be in a guild to participate in Gaunt.…
