TOR 2012 Events Feedback

David Bass has started a thread over on the official forums, requesting some feedback on what we’d like to see BioWare showcase at events this year.. here’s the post:

 

Hi everyone!

With 2012 finally here (and the launch of the game behind us), it’s now time for us to start planning events this year. While we’ve begun putting together plans for things we’d like to do at conventions and shows around the world, we wanted to reach out to you, the members of our community, to get your thoughts about what you’d want to see at these events.

Now bear in mind, we know many of you will want to see new content and game features showcased at events – and in some cases, you will. However, you don’t need to ask us for that as we already know it’s desired – and exactly what does and doesn’t get shown will be in the hands of the development team (and subject to the development schedule!).

While we haven’t announced the events we’re attending yet, we’ll be present at many of the shows we were at in 2011. We’re also planning on attending a bunch of additional events. What we do at these events will be varied, from having a full booth to doing Community meet-ups and panels, but our goal is to bring The Old Republic to a lot more people – and meet as many of our community as possible throughout the year!

With that in mind, we want to hear your thoughts. To get you started, here are some questions we’d love to get your feedback on.

  1. What would you want to see at a show this year? (Examples might include PvP tournaments, Q&As at the booth, photo opportunities)
  2. What topics would you like to see covered on panels? Specific areas of the game? General roundtables with the developer team? Voice actors?
  3. If a show is in your area, would you be likely to attend a Community Meet & Greet outside the show itself?

 

Personally.. the top of my list is that they come to a show here in the Denver area…granted.. I dunno what show since we don’t really have any big gaming conventions (we do have a decent sized Sci-Fi convention here, that might be a good spot).

 

To answer the questions David specifically asked.. I’d like

  1. PvP Tournaments, and Q&As at the booth.
  2. I’d like to see panels about the ‘behind the scenes’ metrics/measurements/analytics that go into balancing and design decisions
  3. I’d be thrilled to come to a Meet and Greet outside the show.
