Guild Wars 2

Currently, looking at the Dev Tracker Thread, you’ll notice that it’s difficult and quite messy to follow, since you cannot look for what the developers are saying on the specific thread YOU want.

My suggestion is to add a button on the left side of the actual thread that filters the conversation to only show the developer’s replies so it’s easier to track the feedback you want.

An addition, the ability to Reply to the feedback you want on the Dev Tracker would make it accessible for all players to be able to communicate much effectively with the developers.

Here is a short video with a demonstration of my suggestion:

The dev tracking is messy and anything would be better.

Very good suggestion. +1 on this enhancement.

I would really like to see something like this! The point of devs commenting is that the community can feel like they’re listening, but they almost always comment on the most popular threads and you have to trawl for ages just to find what they said. It’d be so much easier if we could just go straight to the comment.

I always wondered why clicking the red speech bubble next to a thread never took me straight to the first developer comment.

Good suggestion! I agree.

I’m glad people are liking this idea so far!

If you like this idea, please support it by leaving your honest feedback comment.
^^ This feature would definantly make the GW2 Official Forums experience so much better in terms of better communications with the developers!

This is a fantastic idea. I’m tired of having to scroll through pages and pages of comments just to find what the dev’s are saying. Im definitely supporting this!

I also agree to this! +1 ^^

I also agree to this! +1 ^^

Thanks ^^ Now if we get more people to comment and keep this bumped up, we just might get the dev attention we need for this idea to come true!

bumping thread for exposure

+1 and bump. Would like to see this on threads regarding class balance so I don’t have to dig through pages of whine.

This feature should work for any threads that has a developer reply.

If a developer replied to a thread, it’s easy to just go straight to it by clicking that button on the left side of the thread called (Dev Tracker) from the video demonstration and being able to reply to the developer of that thread helps communication much easier.

It sucks that currently we have to scroll down a wall of text just to find what the devs are saying on the thread you want. =( I hope this feature gets considered

What makes any of you think that the devs actually want you to know what they’re doing?

Not sure if you are aware, but if there are multiple dev responses in one thread, clicking the up/down arrows over/under the dev’s name will take you to the next dev response within the same thread.

I do agree that it would be nice to have a way to go to the first dev response in a thread, especially since some threads get quite lengthy.

Great idea. And I actually didn’t know that Karizee so thanks for the tip.

Thanks for the tip Karizee.8076

Also, Thanks for everyone who supports my suggestion.
Let’s hope ArenaNet community managers who deal with the forums would make this happen! =)
