Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Do you think the developers adequately acknowledge the community perspective?

With the recent live stream Q&A, I wonder what people's overall thoughts were regarding the developers community engagement. It would be great if you could explain your response!

Yes! They are actively engaged with the community and directly address our concerns.

Yes. They in general address our concerns, but also sometimes leave things out.

Yes and No. It is a mixed bag. Some input is noticed, some ignored.

No. They ignore many big community concerns even if sometimes do address concerns.

    It's quite blatantly obvious that they pick and choose what they consider valid concerns, instead of listening to the community as whole. Easiest and most recent example to draw reference to would be the complete absence of either a feedback option or ANY questions regarding the Hex: Ruin changes, despite massive disapproval.

    Yes I think they listen to the community. Every change they have made to the game goes along with what they thought best. Yes they ignore the community too, but only the toxic internet trolls crying they didn’t get what they wanted. Guys, it’s their game, they know it better than any of us and will make changes as needed to make the game more enjoyable for everyone. Keep in mind this process is trial and error if something had horribly impacted the game they will change it again until they get it right! They ARE listening to us! At the same time they are trying to improve the game and THEY DO take the community feedback into consideration. Please, don’t bully the devs (or anyone else) because you lost a game or didn’t get what you wanted. This process won’t be smooth, but in the end it is for all the greater good!
