Forum vs In-Game are both very easy as there's already a lodestone team that monitors the website/forums that can relay info and already collect data internally as players are playi...err "testing."
    I get that and I thought of that as I typed it in. Yes, you cane easily go to the website and report your bug on the forum but that's what I was trying to get at. Why go flood the forums and look through 100+ pages to see if your bug has already been reported? I don't know if you were in Alpha, but 98% of the bug report thread was people complaining. That's not simple for me, someone who is actually testing the game, to go and leave a report on an issue. If SE likes doing that, then cool. I don't and I know I'm not alone.

    Yeah so they'll likely do what SC2013 does with it if they do add a feature like this. I was and I agree, but it's mostly the issue you have on these forums: Most are duplicate, sometimes 8x the same thing over and over and no one really takes the time to properly format anything, but that's why they also had quite a lot of people monitoring and responding. So if anything, i think the data they collect from monitoring in-game is probably why they go with the setup they go with.
