Thanks for posting this video, I love a good dev diary, it's always interesting to see a little bit behind the scenes and understand some of the mindset behind design choices.

In terms of feedback I could see an interview style working a bit better, I liked the video but the slightly long pauses to show the questions kind of throws off the flow a little bit. Personally I'd love to see a diary that showed off all the work that must go into making one of these Behemoths, as they really are the stars of the show.

I love that you loved it!! I totally agree, and I think next time I will try the interview style <3

/u/bunheadwhat is this gonna be how bi-weekly qna are gonna be responded too or is this something different from the bi-weekly qna? also how do you guys choose the questions, where exactly in the reddit/forum can we throw our questions to?

Hey!! This will not be biweekly, but rather when we have a big update / specific content to gear the questions towards. These questions were taken from the bi weekly q&a threads that we post on reddit and the forums!

This video is meant to go into a lot of detail and provide transparency <3 It's our first dev diaries, and I am looking for feedback!! The next one may be more of an interview style with me asking the questions, and perhaps more conversational. Please let me know what you think of this one!!

Hey!! This is known <3 we are working on a fix!

Once it is fixed it will still have just a "back" button, but it will save the changes. Thank you for your patience!

Well then why even have a cap ? Just sounds like your caping because you can... why not implement just add more stuff for the guild tabb like the leader able to make titles in the guild and even make guild hunts ? why not put ur time and effort in to this instead you are makeing things worse for your community , why not make polls and ask us on your login cilent ? there is so many other thinks u could have done instead..

But if it is not that you are aiming for then yea sure destroy the guilds i guess...

We decided to put in the cap ahead of the features going in so that guild leaders could choose who to keep in their guild if they wish. If we did not do this cap ahead of the features, we would have removed players from guilds with no warning, which we did not want to do.

More features, like the ones you mentioned, will be going into the game in the future. We needed everyone to be at a 100 cap so that we can have cool rewards like "do x challenge with your guild for more invite slots".

Hope that makes sense!

Honnestly, I think this is a bad idea. I explain:
-They are many guilds that are beyond 100 members, for example, in my french guild, we are 500+, and for the most famous guilds like Carry Me, it's 1000+. This change will just split the community in different groups and it isn't, in my opinion, really constructive.
-It's better to give guilds some bonuses (in a way like masteries, with objectives that all players can fill), and with this kind of idea, it's totally normal that number is strength. So one guild of 1000 members working on boosting this guild is way much more enjoyable than 10 groups of 100 members working on 10 different groups, creating useless rivalities between those groups who were in the same entity.

For the good point, yes, making guilds free is fine.

Hey! For context, one of the things we would love to add is a way to complete challenges as a guild, with the reward being more slots for more people to join. This only works if every guild has a cap.

Hello, I'm the leader of the xFRx guild containing 500+ members like Draxg0n said it earlier.

WE HAVE LOT OF QUESTION AND PLEASE DONT IGNORE IT.

Huge guilds will suffer from this update. In my case the guild channel was pretty active and very cool with 500 members.. it's really sad to lose this..

1) After a moment (maybe 2 weeks later) will you just delete guilds with 100+ members  ? :( Btw we did a huge work of recruitment. Do you plan some rewards for us ?

Reduce to 100 member will be a hard thing.

2) Will we have tools ingame for determinate which people is able to stay like last connection and if he's online or not ?

3) Will you do a system of alliances like Dofus to regroup multiples guilds and have an alliance channel (/a) & (/g) ?

4) Guilds will have more roles ? Like a role which can invite and kick ?

5) Can i'll change ingame the guild name and tag when I want ?

6) What about dont changes guilds and c...

I know that this feels bad right now, but in order to make more and more cool guild features, we need to have a cap. We are not deleting guilds. Once we have more guild features, we will be removing players from guilds that are above 100 by weighting who logged in last. This way, your most active players will remain in the guild. If you prefer to remove people manually, you can do that if you wish.

2) Will we have tools ingame for determinate which people is able to stay like last connection and if he's online or not ?

When we do update guild features in the future, we will remove people from guilds based on who logged in last. This way, you will keep the people who played most recently. If you prefer to do it manually I totally understand that, and can ge...

OK well this officially Made the game suck...

So now ur limiting us on things so yea.. great...

Why does no game company listen to there players? ooo Yea MONEY FFS GUYS!!

Hey, I am really sorry to hear you're upset. I know that it feels bad to get capped on a thing that was not capped previously. I do want to tell you that these changes are going in so that we can do things in the future (such as level up for expanding guild size). Things like that cannot get implemented unless we put in a cap.

Assuming this initial change is laying the groundwork for future improvement of the guild system I'm super down for this. Question though, if I want to request a guild name change can I e-mail now or should I wait until the change takes place? I'm just dropping the "The" from the guild name. :P

Yes, it's absolutely laying groundwork for the future! Also, you can feel free to email now, however the change will not be able to be addressed until after our game comes back online tomorrow.

Yeah, I want this info. But we will need this type of information even after this, the 100 members limit will continue there so we will need this information to properly manage active members. If you implement it in the game itself will be perfect. (also better roles too)

Super good feedback, thank you!

if people want more than 100 in a guild, I think having a guild level, and gaining guild slots per level could be a cool idea, gives the guild a goal to keep playing and leveling it up to be able to have more players in it!

Totally! I love that idea. The reason we need to put a cap in is so that we have the ability to do cool things like this in the future!

Very excited, I'm looking forward to that new hammer ability. I'm also interested to see what the next Hunt Pass is going to look like, the roadmap suggests it is heat/barbarian themed?

Yes!! The next Hunt Pass art is really cool, you're going to be so into it
