@ shai there was a team overhaul between those months. Also several teams from other games came over aswell. They got a team working on various part of the game. Also Battle changes were put forfront since everyything they want to add requires this change to happen first. Shai I suggest you look up game design and realise how stuff is done. There would be different teams working on an AH then player run companies. Some stuff takes longer to add then other stuff. And as I stated mmo are ON GOING. WHEN THESE CHANGES ARE PUT IN THERE WILL STILL BE MORE CHANGES OR ADDITIONS THAT IS HOW MMO ARE BY NATURE. THEY DO NOT "FIX" AN MMO THEN MOVE ON TO A NEW GAME.
You mean 23.8%? And fail to mention 40.6% wants more story-based quests and Side Quests?
That only 10.3% wanted Wards fix to take priority compared to 36.8% wanting content and 24.2% wanting battle fixes?
We could play with these numbers all day. We could also say that story-based quests & Side Quests that result in new gear, or entirely new systems (like Dungeons) will be on hold while we work on an Auction House system because why implement a new system of trading/selling gear when we'll just have to re-do much of the code every time we add new gear? So the majority should yield to the minority again? We should throw away something that works fine for something that makes us feel safe and secure like we're in another MMO we played?
Honestly, re-poll and I'm sure you'll find you are (still) in the minority.
Though I think a re-poll at this juncture would make Yoshida appear weak (again).
I would certainly be curious how many people want to delay content distribution for more months while they work on a system of menus that serve a function that already exists in the game. I"m guessing if they phrased it that way anyone who understood it (debatable these days) would say "No, thanks. I'll take content, please."
How do you know which teams work on what?@ shai there was a team overhaul between those months. Also several teams from other games came over aswell.

Please, pray tell, with all your game design expertise why did they lower the priority on AH & Jump?
Why are they still assessing the risk/value of doing it?
Could it possibly be that it's more important to have all hands on deck focus on shit that actually matters?
A TEAM WORKING ON THE AUCTION HOUSE IS A TEAM NOT WORKING ON SOMETHING.
I never claimed to know what that something was. I just presented some ideas. You can tell me what that thing is if you want. Stop arguing and start producing answers. Let's see all your countless years of working in the game industry has to bring to the table besides arguing every goddamn post that pops up on the forum.
Please, I invite you to enlighten us.

LoL are you freakin serious? Wow, far be it from me to disagree with someone on public forums and post my thoughts. Did you even see the "lol" and the ""?
This had NOTHING to do with YOUR post directly, Kilta. I simply stated that I don't enjoy elevator music. Get over it. Fackin kids...
You do know what the MW was from right? players used to sit out afk in various zones. It got laggy and casual players didn't have time or could keep they pc or consules on 24/7 trying to sell stuff.
Honestly AH's are not as fast as you guys are thinking. It could take weeks to sell stuff from an AH, or it can take months for an item to be put on the AH. You guys need to take account the flaws with an AH system also. Not just think of them with rose colored glasses. The only fix would be to scrap both and just have npc sell everything. Then get rid of the crafting and gathering classes.
Market wards are an interactive AH and they take the same amount of time to use.
Content is not delayed in this instance because there are different teams for specific things. Let's say the AH was in the favor of the majority, then the specific team who takes care of market wards functionality/changes would shift from working on that to an AH in terms of priority.I would certainly be curious how many people want to delay content distribution for more months while they work on a system of menus that serve a function that already exists in the game.
