Engineers are Overpowered and deserving of nerfs.

Said no-one ever

Many have said it before, but I’ll say it again.

It is not the Dev’s jobs to post on the forums. It takes time out of their busy days to do such a thing. It is a privilege that they come in to answer the occasional question, not a right. It takes time out of their VERY busy days, for them to come here and post. January is all about improving what we’ve already got in the game. All game modes, core mechanics, and likely professions are going to be seeing a lot of work, seemingly at the sacrifice of not seeing a “Lost Shores” or “Wintersday” style event. So that come February and March, we can see some major game features get pumped out for gaming awesomeness.

We’re not the only silent profession forum when it comes to dev posts.

Stay calm, chill out, and wait… Like a week. I think a big patch is happening soon, since they tend to happen on the 15th-ish every month.

nah, the lack of response just suggests the devs dont actually respect the community enough to stay in touch. its reminiscient of maplestory/nexon and d3/blizzard. and the opposite of lol/riot.

if they loved the game, theyd post. theyd be visible. to them its just a job.

Actually, if they loved the game, they’d make it and keep working on it. Oh wait, they are.

Updates are coming. They want to make sure they’re making good decisions. They have a LOT on their plate.

It’s probably not so much a case that they don’t read or don’t want to respond to posts on this forum as they would need to be very careful of exactly what they said. I’m sure the community would scrutinise every word and make sure any slight inaccuracy or wayward promise would never be forgotten.

They will be scrutinized whether they talk or not. Why are devs so scared to say they are working on something. Why would someone care about forum trolls or 13 year olds complaining saying "you said you were doing this, that, and the third! I want. I want, I want!! ".
Don’t kid yourself saying they are working hard instead of posting on the forums. It takes 1 minute to say “Hey guys we hear you’re complaints but don’t agree with them; stfu.” [I’m joking but the example shows that they don’t have to type 500 word detailed posts.]
Personally, I feel silence is not the best option. People get excited when they see a dev post something relevant. A dev post means they are taking time [2 MINUTES] out of their schedule to show the people they care. The devs are celebrities on these forums. They are in the public eye and should be somewhat open across the board. How hard would it be to make 1 relevant post in each of the class forums; PvP; WvW and the GW2 discussion forum?
How awesome would it be if one of the devs came in and said “Hey we see the engineer isn’t the most popular class out there and we recognize some of it’s growth areas and are currently working on something for you guys. Stay Tuned!”

Hi everyone,

I’d like to inform you that, even though Dev’s might not answer in every forum (as stated a bit above, the team has some busy scheudles) they are aware of what is happening. That is why the moderator team exists, to be the link between the Devs and the community. You are not ignored at all, have that for usre.

Thanks for your understanding. This thread is closed.
