Posted Friday, December 19, 2003 - 17:00 CET by chevalier
Newerwinter Vault have posted logs from the developer chat they had this evening. Topics covered a range of issues including touching on unreleased and unannounced games that BioWare is working on. Here's a snip:
BPatryn Of Elvenshae To the crew: Thanks for the support you've shown the NWN community over the past few years. Having said that, what's your real opinion of the community feedback process? We're a cantankerous bunch at the best of times, and has our tendency to over-analyze caused, in your opinion, better work by the BioWare staff?
Jay Watamaniuk First of all thanks for the praise. The whole purpose of the Live Team is the make darn sure that the people who pay the money for our games get a game they enjoy. That being said we have spent a great deal of time on the forums listening to fans.
Rob Bartel Community feedback's been invaluable. Creating games in a vacuum is ridiculously difficult. Sometimes the love hurts but we're very grateful to have you all the same.
Jay Watamaniuk That being said we have spent a great deal of time on the forums listening to fans. And...yes, at times, things can be a bit harsh but you have understand that all things must be taken in a certain light. Every single time someone has come up with a great suggestion we take it into consideration. It is the way that the suggestion arrives is the key point. Be respectful and you get heard- disrespect and you get dismissed and may miss your chance.
Georg Zoeller And some of the better community modules certainly were another way of feedback ... they raised the bar for HotU and we had to beat them :)
Derek French One day, I am going to sit down and list out all the community requested and implemented features, just to show how much you guys have contributed.
Rob Bartel Noo, Derek, noooooo! That's like reading the phone book!
