    Tapping foot....

    Also, forums search is really bad, I had to manually re-find this in order to tap my foot impatiently. Atos, AAA, Wake up new Britannia, none of those worked to find this for me.

    The XenForo search is terrible. Google is better for forum searches.

    Awesome show! Thanks to Woftam and Justyn for presenting the questions and thanks to Chris for answering them!

    Regarding my /point emote question. I think I'd prefer a system where you use a less personal system where you use a skill to bring up a window of "?"in a list, which is the default for PvP characters. Then as you get closer to the ? you're tracking, the name is revealed. Would give you a better of idea of how many players are in the zone (or at least close to you based on your tracking skill) and it would be less sociopath-y. I typically use tracking (in other games) as a defensive skill as well.

    Cool interview

    Some observations

    Keeping episode 1 levels and having players only reset in eps 2 does not sound like a good idea.

    New Forests for lumberjacks - If you design these make the trees more spread out.
    If you play with camera zoomed out, in places like Ulfheim all you get is a screen full of leaves and branches as you move around the zone. Can't see a damn thing.

    Bandages and Pots - great idea. Also our current hp/focus pots suck. These need to restore like 1k and have a fair cooldown.

    They mentioned having some notes on how they plan to implement the new quest system. I would suggest sharing this with players so they can add feedback before work is done.

    Boats sound awesome but it's the player boats that draw interest. Not npc ones.

    Phew... this interview was scary. Honestly... Maybe more demoralizing than scary.

    I would hope that Portalarium would take the Friday afternoon's off and dedicate time for the whole team to play test each other's game additions. Waiting for players to find your bugs just won't work well enough and the proof is in the pudding... How many dear John letters have we read on the forums? How many people paid big money to play this game and how many of them actually played it or simply had to leave? There were 10s of thousands of backers and looking at the stats; we're lucky to have 800-900 players in-game a 24 hour period now.

    It's all fixable, but I think there's process to fix that will lead to fixing this game and the quality of future releases. There's clearly a lag or missing communication link for players and devs to understand when there's an issue in-game.

    If you want to innovate in this area, why not integrate bug reporting and bug triage in-game in addition to the forums and Jira? Run into a zone and show the current issues in the zone for players and devs. Make it easy for everyone to navigate the problems.

    Why wouldn't you as a dev have access to zone stats, when you travel a zone? I think you need to have some dashboards running so you can catch when things like totems are broken. Set a baseline for drop rate of an item and get an email alert when the baseline isn't met over a 24 hour period.

    Anyway... I digress. I've got my own features to build. Ready? Fire! Aim.
