discord? what is the latest on release date?
I believe it was mentioned there was an official discord server for the NHL24 game. Any word on the opening of the server?
Forum Discussion
@RatedxPGxEnigma Lots of times Polls are used for trolling. If you saw some of the Steam Game Awards you can tell some of the winners were because of troll results. Sadly people not taking them all seriously is a problem. I said from the get go the discord would be a bad idea because it would be filled with hate talk and people angry they aren't getting the answers/results they want.
I'm not sure how much trolling would be done if EA controls the question/ selections. Is it that hard to do:
"What area of the game do you want to see us improve next?"
A. Gameplay
B. Presentation
C. HUT Packs
D. Game Modes
Then not only would the community get involved, but we'd all be actively working on making the game better!
Its true there was a lot of discord trolling, but there were alot more issues between the moderation team dealing with game criticism (sounds familiar). They banned a content creator from it after he reported a bug to them. That's just UFC so I can only imagine how much worse it would've been w/ NHL. Again, it's not like it matters cause it's not like the developers have any less access to using these forums as if it was discord.
- @RatedxPGxEnigma Here is an other thing to think about. People can create more than 1 account and vote. That is a form of trolling. Also they take feedback from not only these forums, but Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, etc. You can just vote at each place also.
Also if it's me seeing a question like that it doesn't instill confidence they know what direction they want to take the game. They hinted plenty at the early year interviews. I'm expecting a new off/online mode in the next year or 2.I'm pretty sure SurveyMonkey and other applications now have the ability to sort unique ID credentials and there could be a minimum post/age requirement (they can easily check this), for further effect.
Reddit definitely seems to be the most popular platform but I really think they should only stick to one official spot for feedback (just like all the NHL on PC people - for the love of god, condense all your petitions and polls to a single area for max impact).
Discord seems so unnescessary to me personally but hey, if that's what you wanna do... Still weird (though I guess not surprising), that it hasn't happened yet. Claiming this is the year you're listening and its all gonna be about feedback and not being able to launch a simple server is quite telling

1000% This forum serves the same purpose and absolutely nothing would change w/ a discord.
