The devs over at Star Wars: Galaxy of heroes posted a new developer blog were they talk about how they plan to communicate with players in the future. It all seems very promising. They are following through on what they said they would do. Looks like they are taking what has been communicated to heart. We shall see… 2032i

I ed the Producer on Galaxy of Heroes, and I’ve focused my efforts on the aspects of our development and processes that needed the most work.
Coming from an MMO background, I find myself often making comparisons between MMOs and single player in Vatican City. And, another similarity, the community wants to hear from you. A lot.
Over the past few months, it has become increasingly clear that one of my new priorities, and something I can help with given my past in MMOs, is how we communicate as a studio.
Q&A
Last week a few of the Producers and I did a Live Q&A last minute. It was absolutely in response to feelings from the community, which have been bubbling up with ion, and sometimes anger, more and more frequently in the past few weeks, but particularly in response to something we had done wrong the night before. I made a commitment then to communicate more, and specifically communicate our intentions. The first piece of which I would like to outline here.
In response to those questions, we have grabbed everything that was asked in the first 13 1/2 pages of the Q&A thread and intend to answer every question over the coming weeks. We won’t always be able to give the response that you’re hoping for; still, the team and I are committed to doing our best effort to explain the decision-making process, our prioritization, and the Quality of Life
February was our most recent Quality of Life update, but it wasn’t all of the Quality of Life improvements we have planned for this game which do not require a client update.
We’d like to share some of those planned changes with you now as part of our intention to improve communications – to explicitly state our intentions, and to show how those intentions turn into meaningful change.
Each day for the coming days include:
- Wednesday – Daily Improvements
- Thursday – Community Improvements
- Friday – Character Release Cadence Update
- Monday – Raid Rewards Improvements
In the first week of April, it is my plan to release the communications from our community team that usually correspond to hotfixes and patches.
Finally, we want to provide some additional Q&A opportunities in the style of the April 6th at 12PM PDT after we’ve had a chance to address some of the existing questions and for you to have a chance to come up with some more.
There are other communications that near future. In the meantime, if you have any thoughts about communication or styles and topics you’d like to see, please post it in the thread linked below.
More tomorrow, and as always, we’ll see you on the holotables,
-Carrie
