Devs: Additional Siege character slot for SA?

Should Siege players get an additional character slot for the new expansion?

Siege was created because a DEV had a dream of what it could be. It was supported, they built it and we came. Sadly, I don't believe we have a DEV who is in love with Siege anymore. My fear is that they will continue to make production changes that will leave our shard unbalanced and buggy because they lack the resources or love needed to bring Siege to what it should be.

This is what has happened, and will continue to happen. I believe it partially has to do with the fact that no dev is in love with Siege (though you never know, anyone could be a dev), and partially because we make up such a small portion of the population we don't command the resources.

And I'm not holding my breath for any great changes.

Say there are 200 accounts that play Seige. Then because of an extra character slot after 6 months, it goes down to 120 accounts. Guess what? No more Seige.

You should demand human to gargoyle and elf to gargoyle quests. Maybe EA is going to sell Turn Into Gargoyle tokens, which might have been the reason for the initial decision not to have the quests.

I did not vote. There were not enough options for me to vote.

ONE I do not even care to make a flippin flying gargoyle chr. on Siege *or anywhere*

TWO if they thought OF Siege to begin with, they would have included either a human garg quest or some thing to enable Siegers to BUY their product with one chr. per acct. Obviously it seems they forgot Siege in the development.

As it stands my 4 accts. are HUMANS on Siege, they did not go elf, they will NOT go gargoyle, and personally I thus have no reason to even buy their SA product for my HUMAN CHRS. of one chr. per acct. on Siege.

They could offer folks to BUY another slot when they BUY SA for Siegers...or offer a human gargoyle and back to human quest for all Siegers WHEN THEY BUY SA, so they CAN buy SA and make a gargoyle out of their elves or human chrs. if someone wishes to do so.

Every new expansion has it's marketing ploy to make us want to buy their expansion and new product oft forgetting Siege is ONE chr. per acct.

IF they want our money, they need to think of something I think that enables one chr. per acct. on Siege to play a flippin flying gargoyle chr. on their existing chrs. if they wish to do so..with the rules as is...or yeh just forget it all and give us same amt. of chr. slots as all the........other shards making Siege same as every where else then and thus no longer SIEGE !

Vote how yall wish to...I am not gonna vote. . and probably will NOT be even buyin SA my Siege chrs. are HUMANS 3 of those are crafters...they shall remain whom they are on Siege without flippin flying nor imbuing.

*saves her money*

Oh, Petra, I can assure you that if 95% approval was the goal for any change to Siege Perilous, there would never be any changes! lol I think one thing I have learned after years of observation, is that it takes us much more than one, two or even three discussions on any given issue. Oh no, we prefer not only to beat horses to death and then beat dead corpses, but to pulverize them into tiny particles of fine powder, my dear! :)

Although, if we had two thirds in agreement, we're off to a nice start for certain!

Another thing I have learned about Siege players is that we are prone to wanting more information and reserving the right to change our minds, as I have in this particular case. I was one of those who voted against an additional character slot, because I felt it wasn't in the spirit of Siege to do so. After having learned that we will not have the ability to change a character into a gargoyle, I feel we do need an add additional character slot for those that wish to participate in all that SA has to offer. I will not purchase an expansion if I am not allowed access to all it has to offer. Further, I feel it is ridiculous to expect that players should delete developed characters in order to do so. I will be doing no such thing.

So now we have two thirds +1! :thumbsup:

Blindside - I do not believe that Siege Players have asked for additional character slots with past expansions. Mondains Legacy introduced Elves and we were given the option to do a quest to become an elf. It is my understanding that is not going to be the case with SA, therefor, I feel an additional character slot is warranted.
Standing on a Hill with a very steep slope.

The top of the hill is SP, the Valley is full of the other shards.

Looks down at the side of hill and sees one very very slippery slope. And thinks just how a tiny little Snow Ball rolling down the hill becomes a huge avalanche, so large there is no stopping it.
