You shouldn’t electronic mail builders straight until they’ve explicitly informed you to take action. Recreation devs (particularly AAA devs) aren’t interchangeable and we don’t all work on the identical factor, have the identical experience, and even work inside the identical workforce. For instance, on an infinite sport like Name of Obligation, there are numerous a whole bunch of builders engaged on it at any given time. They’re cut up up amongst many various teams – single participant marketing campaign, multiplayer, zombies, UI, on-line again finish assist, construct, instruments, and so forth. Emailing a dev who works on Name of Obligation to offer suggestions in regards to the zombies mode, for instance, can be a literal gamble as a result of they might not even work on the identical studio, not to mention on the zombies mode. Think about sending sport suggestions a couple of specific merchandise or sport mode you dislike to the dev who works on the web retailer fee processing. What might she do about your suggestions? Realistically, she’d simply ignore it since she has different duties to do than work out which workforce it ought to go to and cross it on to somebody from that workforce.
Truthfully, one of the best ways to get the suggestions to the suitable individuals is to undergo the correct channels, despite the fact that it doesn’t really feel prefer it. Most groups have neighborhood managers whose job it’s to learn participant suggestions and cross it on to the suitable builders. I do know it may be irritating and really feel like “slicing in line” would assist, nevertheless it actually simply disappears into the ether 9 occasions out of 10. I’ll additionally level out that it’s extremely unlikely to get a significant response on this both, as a result of we will’t make guarantees about future content material because it’s all the time in flux and since we’re usually [working 2-3 patches (i.e. 6-9 months) in the future], so any adjustments to the sport seemingly received’t arrive till no less than the patches that we’re engaged on ship.
