Luke Smith for Community Manager!
I say we all raise our voices and nominate Luke Smith for community manager!
His post on Neogaf is the kind of communication from Bungie that we all have been craving since launch. He talks about actual development plans, admits where mistakes were made and lays out what issues they are addressing. It's amazing! I wish all weekly updates were like this. So refreshing and honest.
Deej has shown his colours as a PR guy with an uncanny ability to write a ton of words without actually saying anything. Frankly, it's exhausting and disappointing almost every time.
Down with Deej, let the community reign of Smith begin!
Edit
I'm kidding but not really
Edit
Seems I have to clarify for some. I don't think Luke Smith should actually be community manager. He's lead raid designer and that would be ridiculous. This post was more of a joke highlighting how refreshing it was to get some actually insight into how the developers are thinking about what they've done and what they are going to do. Deej's PR speak is usually nothing of importance so the Neogaf thing was super refreshing. Deej should be let off the leash a bit more as well as take some tips on how to be blunt and direct like Smith
-
I don't want a community manager that only reply once every few months and the only time he reply was in another forum.
-
Yes, we want the person who designed the raid to lead the forums haha The same guy it took seven weeks to change the color of the enemies' health bars in CE

3 RespuestasJust playing devils advocate, but what if the community manager is told by the rest of the company he works for what to say, more importantly what not to say. In other words, if he's not a company spokesman/community speaker. Maybe the word managr I'd more literal and he's simply expected to "manage" us. (not a possible thing to do.) nb. I do agree that the updates amount to nothing and that the silence on their behalf is stunning.

1 RespuestaI don't know why I still come on the forums , we never get any news of anything Just paragraphs Of Deej talking about bs and everyone complaining lol, but here I am. I guess the faith and hope in me is strong:p

Editado por Matu Flp Krawfe: 1/28/2015 4:40:23 AM"Destiny: Butt pumping experience of the decade!" (direct reference to the old Bungie podcasts, hey you guys put it out there as official PR) Anyway Lukems was a cool guy to have cheering the community on in the old days but he was always at his best with adults in the room (most of whom, if not all, are gone.) He might have grown up over the years since, but I think Bungie needs to take a different direction than either of these choices (Smith or Deej.)

Luke Smith was a gaming journalist? He should be selling cars off one of the exit ramps on the New Jersey turnpike. That's if he is responsible for releasing a beta as a AAA title? This game will be patched till the next game.
-
You woudln't want Deej to be "blunt and direct". Because he'd tell half the people on this forum to go sit on a..... Bottomline is that Deej can't tell us anything until guys like Smith have made their decisions about what direction the game will go AND are ready to release that information to the public.
-
-
Hey, crazy idea: maybe have DeeJ do interviews with people like Luke Smith, and that's the content of the weekly updates. His PR bullcrap with their actual content and information. I could live with that. Probably never gonna happen, but oh well.
-
There's no proof that it was actually him. If he wanted this things said he could have had DeeJ post them.
-
9 RespuestasI agree deej has no clue what a Community manager stands for since he don't Listen to any suggestions from anybody on improving this game.

"NeoGAF is a nexus of hardcore gamers, enthusiast press, and video game industry developers and publishers. This is a neutral ground where facts and evidence, presented within the confines of civil, inclusive discourse, prevail through careful moderation" Luke Smith is an actual developer, so that's a terrible idea to drop him a pay grade. Also he was speaking candidly about general facts gathered over the course of the last month and a half or so. He wasn't responding to a lengthy post about how much a gun needs nerfing, why the bladedancer is broken in PvP, or giving out vault space. He was discussing design decisions in the development process as a developer would do when they have been told a mistake was made. He still didn't reveal any information about what is to come, but rather that they have learned and things will change. Any assumptions you made about what he stated is going to end up being your own downfall when it doesn't end up how you expect come HoW. Simply put, you got about as much information from Luke Smith as you do from every weekly update.

Listen to the people Deej which you don't and never will its pathetic
-
-
It's sad that we read more about this game outside of the forum, than we do inside the forum. That is terrible "community management".
-
Throw a #satire on there. Personally I laughed, too bad there's always a serious tone to stuff. Great post!
-
They should fire deej and get a new community manager.
-
1 RespuestaLOL...I'm kidding but not really. That's like saying "with all due respect..." which is just another way of saying "i'm going to say something really mean about you, but you can't get mad at me because i am doing it respectfully" So a guy posts ONE half illuminating post on some never heard of website giving data that is probably 50% BS and you want to overthrow DeeJ? Frankly, I believe half of what I see and none of what I hear. Once DeeJ posts something on the changing economies, then I'll believe it. That said, DeeJ, can you post something on the changing economies for HoW?
-
This isn't anything. DeeJ was probably the one who let him know how players felt about his game design.
-
-blam!-ing this times 1000000000. Deej is worthless. It's not his fault really I'm sure he's only allowed to say so much. But talks from the actual devs are infinitely more informative.
-
It's nice to actually get a straight answer out of someone at Bungie.
-
3 RespuestasHuh? Dude is the Lead Raid Designer for Bungie.... what time does he have to manage the whiners, demands etc??
-
1 RespuestaLuke has only popped up and replied after getting dissed by a former 'friend' of bungie. (on reddit). So far he seems that he doesn't understand why we are annoyed and weirdly singles out the shards economy as the 'big problem' when its just PART of the problem that there weird design ethos has created. That's not someone you want talking to the community, and TBH not as a lead anything. I mean, his communication starts with the childish 'no it won't , how would he react to a more direct criticism?
