The first thing to keep in mind with this choice is that it is
something coming down the road. The development team has already stated
they know the creatures in the game need to be revamped in a manner
similar to the class revamps due to the fact that many classes appear
overpowered. Personally, I appreciate the team deciding to improve the
mob challenge level rather than nerfing classes. No one likes the nerf
bat, and I'm no exception. Please choose this option if you think this
should happen sooner than later though.
Again, keep in mind that Silius has stated he is working on a new
faction system. Whether that includes a KOS (Kill On Sight) portion or
not may be up for debate at this point. While I personally don't see
how it could be left, that could very well just be part of my personal
preferences coming through. In any case, if you think this system needs
to be "re-added" back into the game sooner than any of the other
choices, please make this one your choice.
As silly as it may seem to some, fishing is a gaming aspect that many
people truly appreciate. Wamtin has stated they are currently working
on a system that will not be a "watch the bobber" game. The real
question is how soon do you wish to see this implemented in the game. I
have to admit I have very fond memories of just chatting with guildies
while doing nothing more than fishing in the Plane of Tranquility
during my old Everquest days. If you think this form of relaxation
should be added into the game quicker than other choices, let us know.
As every player in Vanguard with a pulse knows right now, there are
still a number of players that are upset with the changes to the
character faces. It has been stated repeatedly, and in great detail,
that this was a temporary measure on the path of revamping the
character models. There still seem to be a number of players that
haven't gotten this information though. If you think this change should
be completed sooner than anything else so players will be able to have
their characters finished instead of remaining in a limbo state, this
choice is for you.
To pretend I know most of the problems players are having in the
Diplomacy sphere would do nothing but make me look foolish. There are
enough players talking on both the boards and in the game to let us
know that this particular sphere within Vanguard has been feeling
neglected for some time now. With the realities of the development team
size, it's been a casualty so far, but things look to be improving. If
you think the Diplomats of Telon need some love right now, then let the
poll be your voice.
It has been brought to my attention recently that some of the Sea
Portals have been problematic. The one mentioned the most often to me
is the Sea Portal going from Kojan to Qalia. In any case, this may not
seem to be too big of an issue on the surface, but what about those
players that choose not to use the riftways because they feel it takes
away from their sense of game play? They not only have every right to
refuse to use the riftways, but I also say more power to them for
making the game what they want it to be without demanding any number of
changes from an already swamped development team. As such, if you think
something like this should be fixed as soon as possible, this choice is
for you.
As I've done in the past, this is another poll that requires an "Other"
option. The only thing I ask is that if you choose this as your option,
please take the time to let us know what that choice would be.
What issue do you wish the development team would address first?
