Blue posts
The following blue post is talking about responses Zarhym gave yesterday about PVP. You can read all the major ones in yesterday's Today in WoW.
You realize that it probably wasn't an off the top of his head idea to do this, right?
A Dev-CM meeting.
OK guys. We're set. We need a CM to go on the PvP forums and find out what people's concerns are. Who wants to volunteer.
.....silence......
OK, seeing as no-one has volunteered, you need to go do it Zarhym.
Aw shucks...do I have to.
Yes. Now get to it.
Cheers.
It actually was. :)
Yes, we have discussed PvP concerns in meetings recently. But, when I finally got some free time yesterday evening at work I said, "Hey Bashiok [didn't actually call him that], I'm going to go start a thread on the PvP forum to open up a conversation with them for the remainder of my day."
He suggested I make sure to stay on top of it and compile the popular feedback. I stayed completely focused on that thread for my last hours at work, then this morning shipped off some feedback to our developers along with a link to the thread (and other related threads).
