How about a developer interview?

[Cataphract]

It would be cool to interview Armagan and ask questions in general about mount&blade, like how he got started and what he feels of the game. For example have people ask questions then an admin would pick a few and forward them to armagan and he would post the interview, i would ask questions like:

What made you start develop Mount&blade?
What feature are you most proud of and what feature didnt become quite as you wanted?
What software/games have you developed in the past?
Has Mount&blade become more or has it become less than you planned it would be?
What is THE one thing you would personally want implemented in Mount&Blade yourself?

It would be pretty cool, yeah.

 

[Merlkir]

would be nice. But we should choose good questions, not some lame ones..

Go for it!

But yeah, nice idea.

 

[mrcrotch]

Yeh it'll give a better insight into why this wonderful game was made.

"Will there be multiplayer in M&B?" 


j/k

 

[Merlkir]

yeah, that kind of

Wouldn't it be easier... to kinda have a thread, where once a week one person asks a question and it gets answered? (or once a day or whatever) that way we have the chance to develop our questions a bit more than just a straight checklist of questions.

 

[Hallequin]

Well we were thinking about that for the podcast...

'Cept then you'd have to decide who gets to ask the question, and hope it's not a dumb one.

yeah, it'd have to be someone with a certain post count or something... maybe only knight or above coukld ask questions... just to ensure they're not idiot spammers... (of course Llew being a moderator would be allowed to post, since his RP posts count god knows how many)

How do we know they didn't become knights by spamming idiotically? There's a 40+ page long thread titled "Your questions _CONCERNING_ the next version here". What more could you want?

 

[Cataphract]

No not postcount, that'd be just silly, we should let a moderator choose which questions are good, or armagan himself would pick out the questions. So what are you waiting for, ask away!! And maybe armagan will read this thread or an Admin sends the best questions to armagan when this thread is grown

Go for it!

 

[Archonsod]

It might be better asking Armagan directly if he'd be interested. Or of course, you could also try Daegoth or any of the developer staff (or get an interview from them all, they'll all have their own areas of expertise).

Questionwise, it might be an idea just to collect them all and let the interviewee choose which to answer. Or simply choose the ten best/most popular questions. Best idea would be to ask the interviewee themselves how they'd like to do it.
