But but... Many Korean MMOs have eyecandy so bugs won't not matter :(
Guys, imagine that GD inherited hundreds of thousend of code lines without whole dev team who wrote that, probably with lack of description or documentation... That explains that some things can not be changed easily. So... I think GD should make a strict line to cut off from broken parts of a game such as: - guild system, group finding, siege system... - all of them should be re-written from scratch. I think deleting broken systems can not be an option as they can be combined with other features in the game code. Changing broken things can break whole game. But adding new features and systems could and should be possible. And then we start about the dev team... it's too small and too slow to catch up all the missing things the players want. So the players leave, the company earns less, they cut the dev team and the circle repeats...
You asked me almost same question in July, here is what I wrote

Community managers in Wildstar MMO are also doing a bang up job (http://wildstar-online.com/en/).
Just because you have set the bar low I doesn't make it any better. I am aware that others might like it, but its my review based on my opinion.
That is just not true. On top of my head:

Here is probably best stream that we had: http://www.twitch.tv/mmorpgcom/b/312419613 (it was about Dead Mans Hand).
Those were actually good so you might want to look into it
You are not looking hard enough.
Few tips on top of my head:
- interivew with the world first T5 guild
- Kings UI is back ! http://forums.ageofconan.com/showthr...g-UI-Unchained
- Hox boards got complete guide to Hox http://forums.ageofconan.com/showthr...erald-of-Xotli

how about a competition with in-game prizes to hand out?
I just wrote that I am sad to see old one go and that if new one was needed for technical reasons so be it. You need to let it go.
And here is something for you: I am one of those guys that puts down money that goes into the Funcom company and then into your pocket. I don't like your attitude and I voiced my opinion as I am paying for your services.
Saying that you "chose to reflect the tone given to me by posters" is pretty much acting childish when you are confronted by a child. You are dealing with a MMO community and IMO it's not even all that savage of a community (at least not as much as back in 2008-2010 or like a World of Warcraft). If you are going to be "reflecting" or "responding" to some of MMO people in same manner as they do you will sink down very low. They difference is that some spoiled brat on forum will be treated as just a troll and ignored and you will catch flak for it.
and using the word "butthurt" in your response, really? Was that really necessary? Were you making a point or was that the usual "responding" because I don't recall using that kind of disrespectful language towards you.
Which devs? Only devs posting are Pyzerius and CirithGorgor and they always find the thread on their own (almost 100% on TL). Nisquam either also finds the post/threads on his own or he will react to twitter links that people give him. Devs are always saying that they are reading the forums.
I'm sorry but this is not the way employee of company behave at the place where he represent that company. I'm not gonna tell you how to do your job or are you doing it good or not, but you must work on your attitude.
We are all guilty of being players and humans and i know people can sometimes be difficult (i work with people), but you must be above it. Its your job, not playground behind your house.
Slith has made some good points and I think he is right almost in everything......so I support him (except pvp gear gaps).....On the other side we have a community manager who is not acting as a professional....what can I say? Just "facepalm" Tomi you have to work hard on your communication skills ;-) Peace!
PS: I think he wont reply to this topic again :D
I'll take that bet! However one may feel about how Tomium ways to respond, I cannot recall him backing away from a discussion which had a point to it.
Nice review, Slith. But I feel there were some FC-sponsored events that were left out. I believe, FC sponsored some prizes in a Crom-tournament (I may be wrong) and they certainly came through on the RP-side http://forums.ageofconan.com/showthr...World-RP-event
And I was sad to see that RP in AoC was not touched upon in any sort of way (I am aware that you probably don't have any current knowledge of the RP-state, but a passing comment on -that- aspect of AoC would include the whole picture :kiss:
I rly think u guys are doing a good job, i see u guys answer in many posts, it takes a lot of time just to keep track of posts on forum. So just keep the good work up and i am looking forward to the time where u guys are able and have some extra time to implement some extra pvp content for us old players☺ i have bielief that the time will come and i fully respect that things takes time!
Cheers guys and have a happy new year☺ looking forward to play more Aoc next year with my friends on Fury server😊
About Epic Tales: Close but no sigar. There was no Herald of Xotli option. :mad:
About streaming: It is a good start, you could try to do it more frequently.
1 Request though: Play an other class than HoX. Watching you play it was a toe-curling experience for me. :freak: ;) (see sig)
About forum re-design: Bitschslap those doing this and get them to make it 1 size smiley's atleast. Preferably the big ones :laugh: not the small ones :(
About Snarky Comments: Might I suggest you react more like Kalanthes (or Yoda) and less like Toth-Amon or even a young Conan (or Darth Vader). ;)
(Just be a bigger man than the trolls and lead by example. :kiss: )
In regards to the content review, I think its a pretty fair summary and thanks for taking the time to post and compile it.
I'm already fairly confident that the review for 2015 will be a further improvement, there are a number of large systems almost ready to go and we do have big hopes for what we are going to be able to deliver in terms of content.
A couple of things I'd just like to add to the review are to pass on the content teams thanks to everyone who helps support this game with external sites, tools, videos and blogs, they are always great to see and really do help support the game as a whole. Also thanks to everyone who dropped onto the test server particularly to help with the PvP events and the T5 raids. I'm not going to name drop (because inevitably I'll miss someone) but you know who you all are and thanks.
Happy 2015 everyone, see you on the other side.
