Negative reviews - is positive this early in development!

I work within the same line of work, and at my job we strive to get negative reviews as early as humanly possible. Positive reviews have no value early in development outside of knowing that we're on track to something. But we hope to get negative reviews as early as possible, because the earlier they come, the less work there is to change the problems to fix them.

When people in the forums have negative things to say, applaud it! Or at least if its constructive. The devs will want to hear stuff that bothers people now, instead of at closer to launch where its too late - or at least there it will cost 10x the money and effort to fix problems that should have been seen and noticed earlier.

Saying that "everything will be fine", or "its alpha" doesn't help them. We're all here because we're hyped on the game, and we took the effort to register to a new site in a new forum to give support. That alone shows appreciation for what the game is trying to be, and what direction they generally have for it. So giving reviews, thoughts, suggestions etc, good or bad is the same as showing support, as long as its constructive.

I have a big stance on how I think they should implement animations, but that's only because I see that they haven't standardized how they should be implemented, and for me - combat is the one single biggest thing for this to be a success. I wish they said that beneath 30 frames, its ok to have one point cache on animations and anything above gets split in more parts so its easier to adjust later. And the ultimate standard should be to always split animations for the upper body and the lower body - as this means the stride can be adjusted separately from the main animation and speed of abilities, or the other way around. Take it as a compliment.

In the AOC game, you will find many shadows of other games, but if you further understand it, you will find that these shadows have many drawbacks, but AOC has not deeply understood the content inside, which will bring a lot to the game. Impact
In terms of equipment production, AOC uses a gameplay similar to that of Korean games in the ancient century. In this gameplay, although players can make what they need, get the motivation to collect materials, and enrich the player’s gameplay and other advantages, What are the disadvantages? Has AOC thought about this? In the future, some businessmen will set up game studios to benefit from the game, which will make these game studios more convenient. The gears are also similar to the ancient century, but this gear, caravan, further imagination is very scary In the ancient century, this caravan's system was a place where it failed, making the game completely out of balance, but letting these game-destroying game work gain higher benefits. Even if you have thought of some ways to solve it, have you tested it? Among players all over the world, there will always be people who will try their best to profit from a popular game. Someone will think of a way to crack the solution you want. Have you collected information about the failure of game projects in the ancient century? Since similar methods are adopted, their advantages and disadvantages should be solved. Maybe not take a simple way to slow down? Increase the probability and difficulty of obtaining materials, making the game more valuable, and robots cannot obtain materials from it.
The same is true in other aspects. When you want to learn from others and apply it to yourself, but you don’t test it, don’t collect information, you just set it on yourself, and modify it when you have an adverse reaction. At this time this thing will not become so perfect. Why not change it in time when you have the ability to change it? In your fighting style, you still stick to your ideas, but you go to further test whether this fighting style can accept the change of time? Or to collect information? When people use skills in battle, they slowly release skills one by one, but the completion of this skill is too low, so that all aspects will encounter problems, making this seemingly perfect battle very bad, shouldn’t this exist? What about the AOC?
AOC should further optimize the future changes in the times to be able to operate for a long time, not just the moment when the flowers bloom, which is meaningless for an MMORPG.
Players who can provide some of the deficiencies in AOC are all expectations of AOC. I hope that they will be more perfect, rather than stagnating. If you don't improve them, can you get higher profits? I think you are also unwilling.

When the developer of a game does not experience the content of the game developed by himself, does not fully understand the content of the game, does not experience the player’s evaluation of the game, but instead thinks about the game when developing it. The two can be the same Well? How many game project developers have not seriously experienced the games they have developed and are not responsible for the games, thus losing the trust of the players. Players need games, and they need more perfect games. Shouldn't developers follow the wishes of the players? Or is it that the game is the developer’s own mini-game, is it the power for the developer to watch the game without discovering the lack of improvement to make the game more perfect?

Current MMORPG players all need a break away from the previous idea, a real MMORPG, many players desire and desire to make the game more perfect
At the same time, the birth of such a game will also bring great benefits to the game studio.
But such a game requires developers to feel the needs and ideas of game players. These developers need to experience the game situation first, rather than meet the developers' own ideas.
In MMORPG, from idea to time, many situations do not require much money, but need some minor changes and optimizations to make the game more perfect.
If the AOC staff are perfect, I don’t think you will see so many players who will give you more suggestions. For you, these suggestions are just chatting.
But do you believe that everyone is perfect? How many game development projects do not have a deep understanding of the situation here, to test game performance, to collect data, so that the game will fail?

When the battle is smooth enough and perfect enough, many players will still miss it. When you ask the player which battle mode of the game is the one you are satisfied with, players can also come up with it. AOC can be higher, but the developers themselves AOC is restricted by itself. I agree with you,

This is why I am happy to say you are in no way professional - without learning the specifics of the project, you shouldn't comment on it. No one underatands this more than a professional, and so anyone willing to offer "suggestions" without being that familiar is obviously not a professional.

This is stupid. I've worked in this segment for 10 years.

I have no reason to believe this - you appear to understand how to google a few basic terms, but don't understand how to use BBCode - which doesn't bode well for you claiming any kind of career like this.

I will as I've said continue to give the same type of feedback I my self are happy to hear while in the middle of a project

Maybe if you had have spent less time reading worthless feedback and more time working on the projects you claim to be involved in, after 10 years you would have been pulled from working on water and fire in to a more senior position.

If I spent 10 years in one segment and wasn't running projects by then (or at least the lead of a significant portion of a project), I'd be embarassed. But it's ok, I'm still assuming you don't work in this field at all, so no need to be embarrased.

Personal insults all over, while you help my cause by pumping this thread over and over again, while you flail your hands guessing on where I stand currently within my work - want to guess on salary too? 👍

Please continue helping so I can continue to bump the thread and help when normal people have questions on this.
