Guild Wars 2

Hello,

So for this chapter of the living story, I decided to try to make a poll dealing with only the most recent part (Secret of Southsun). While these questions wont be able to fully represent your views on the LS, it can help give Anet a rough number of what people think of it.

Please feel free to expand on any answers or things you’d like to give feedback on in the responses to this thread.

Thank you for your time.

Why would you do this?

Yea I see little point to it and you cant really believe Anet is going to take whatever results come out of it as gospel?

Let them make their own polls if they care for our feedback.

Thank you to everyone whose responded. Keep em coming! I’d love to keep this going till the end of this chapter!

Thanks for all the responses! I’ll be posting the responses after this chapter ends (28th) and maybe making a new one for the next chapter depending on what is added.
So tell you’re friends to come an fill it out, lets help Anet make the LS better!

I wish they did!

But, I like questionnaires and I believe in statistics, so I took the 1 seconds to answer the questions. Whether or not ANet takes this into consideration in coming upgrades isn’t of top relevance to me, but I’d like to see the results myself, especially mapped against data from earlier events.

:)

I love filling in polls so… I filled in even though I doubt it being useful. :-D

Anet will probably take one look at the results of this poll when it’s published, and go “meh.. so what, we’re gonna keep doing things the way that we want to”. It’s only when their metrics are showing that there’s something wrong (ie. things aren’t getting used/traded, people aren’t visiting areas, doing events, etc.) that they’ll actually sit up and take notice.

It’s just an opinion poll, and you know what they say about opinions…

PS: I don’t believe you asked what we thought about the weapon skins.

They may, but it may help them in future efforts.

Honestly that there have been so many complaints on the forums and endgame about the new weapon skins and how you need RNG to get them, I figured they’d know that the general population doesnt like it. But I have to feel for anet because they have to make a profit. So I really wanted to do things that seem to maybe hint at anets future designs of LS and new content. Things like the way monsters fought, the way dynamic events are started and interact, the way storylines and npcs interact. Things like that. They will always put in cash shop items. They will always be skins. There will probably be skins you buy at the end of the story like in FnF where it was rox/brahams gear.

Great idea! Anet should consider making their own polls because it’s a good way to gather data on what the player population thinks without using all their manpower to read the endless posts on opinion threads.

True, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they have some special way of gathering data on the forums.

We’ve got one more week till the poll closes, so keep those responses coming! I got more responses then I expected actually haha! I appreciate everyone whose taking the time to fill this out. I hope that anet will take a look at it when the next chapter is released

Yeah like, they never listen. They have not removed 1 day events, haven’t made many things accessable directly through the cash shop, they haven’t adjusted orr mobs, haven’t removed mass open world events also haven’t implemented solo and group dungeons wich are now adjustable to your own liking, etc.. Man these guys never listen. Oh wait.

I couldnt respond to the part of ‘’do you think living story should be harder?’’ because while i think there should be harder content that answer would be targeted towards all of it. I think there needs to be the option of med/hard difficulty content and ofcourse harder=better drops.

But yeah.. not only one way or the other.

Tuesday is when this poll ends! Get in your last responses for memorial day weekend! I’d love to submit this with as many peoples opinions and concerns as possible!

I was surprised not to see a question about weapon skins and drop rate in there.
