Dev Discussion – Hypothetical – Control

James Casey brings us a new Hypothetical Discussion on the Dev Boards. This discussion is a little bit different than the usual discussions:

“This is going to be a bit unusual of a dev discussion. We were asked to get some feedback on control schemes and naturally I thought of our forums and our players. To that end, I’ve put together a list of questions to see how you, as a Warhammer Online player, interact with, control, and target in our game. When answering these questions, concentrate on how you play our game currently. I’ll list a few examples, but don’t consider that list exhaustive, if you use different keys or methods, let us know. Also, if you use mods in conjunction with any of the below, list them. …”

To read the questions and the rest of the discussion, please visit theOfficial WAR Forums. Afterwards, come back and join in on the discussion on ourVN Forum! |  | Send To Friend | 

Dev Discussion – Hypothetical – Crafting

James Casey brings another Hypothetical Discussion to the Dev Discussion Board, this one about Crafting.

“This time around I want to talk about something a bit hypothetical. We’ve talked about how we have some plans for crafting in the future (later this year) but we want to get some feedback from the players first on the current crafting system.

To that end, here are some questions to answer.

What is your favorite aspect of the current crafting system?
What do you consider the most useful item(s) that can be produced in the current crafting system? …”

To continue reading the questions and the discussions, please visit the BioWare MythicOfficial WAR Forums, and then head back to ourVN Forum boardsto discuss it with us!
