Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, I talk to says they want a sandbox mode that they can test things in.
That's because you self-select the people you talk to. I don't think you'll find anyone who is outright anti a sandbox mode, but I also think that you'll find the number of people who simoly don't care about it vastly outnumbers the people who want it.
Think about it now, there have been several areas where you can futz with teams in the past--repeatable marquee events (the ones with 5 replays for no rewards), galactic wars, to a degree even raids if you don't care about the rewards. There are a lot of spaces in the game for consequence-free team building. It's not quite the same, of course, but the fact that approximately 0 people used any of those puts a damper on the "there's a massive groundswell" line of thinking.
I don't know how many people are playing this game, but let's say it's only 200,000. It's definitely more, but let's just say it is. How many people do you think will use a sandbox mode if they make one? 2000? 3000? Now how many do you think would use, say, a new raid if it was added. Or a new event. Nearly everyone.
Why spend time working on something that a very, very small percentage of players would use when you can devote that same time to things everyone will use?
