Guild Wars 2

there needs to be in-game surveys if there is a real interest in putting your finger on the pulse. I’m saying this because data metrics are one dimensional, and while the cdi is nice, the forum sample size is too small to yield any accurate stats or get the general feelings of the game population. the best way to collect and analyze data from players would be to have both simple click box and comprehensive surveys sent out through in-game email regularly. the information gained through such surveys would be more useful and accurate and not lead to empty and untrue statements such as “we have the data so it must be fun”. additionally, cdi discussion would have a more meaningful direction because there would be a better game wide census as opposed to the same 300 people voting, replying and reposting. I don’t feel the need to over explain this concept because I’m assuming you all get it.

thanks
