I wonder if there could be a sweet-spot between no developer interaction and what Ben used to provide that would mostly satisfy the community. I can understand devs not wanting to come here and engage in back-and-forth interactions outside of their day job ( especially if the interactions are toxic ), but I wonder how they'd feel about the occasional blog-like post with an in-depth breakdown of a game mechanic that the community is concerned about or just doesn't have a firm understanding of how it works.
Something like that might scratch the community's itch without forcing the devs to go too far above and beyond.
I’ve been saying this for years, so I am going to bring it up again.
It would be nice if these forums had a separate XP that is only given out or removed by the people with an EA badge. When someone has the required XP they can participate in discussions with the dev team or representatives.
Of course, they could also very easily just give @EA_Aljo more information and not have any need for devs to be on here. There are simple solutions to the communication problem, it seems clear to me it’s more so a matter of not wanting the information out there at all.
That’s true, but that’s also related to offline modes and not gameplay. As long as I’ve been playing this game there has never been any insider dialogue or proper reasoning about the workings of an offline feature. At least there has been some dev interaction about gameplay in the past.
If I even remember correctly Ben and Clappy have done Q and A’s on Reddit of all places.
