Considering how much fun I've had with Total War over the years, I don't mind doing it as a labour of love and also out of personal interest to see what other people think.
And rest assured, I've sent numerous emails to members of their community team, both handing over results and offering them a pretty much unlimited amount of input into the surveys themselves.
No prizes for guessing whether or not I got any response
I've sent results direct to Rob Bartholomew accompanied by a polite and respectful covering letter and have emails from people internally in CA confirming it's been forwarded to him and his team... still no response. I presume they can't be seen to acknowledge it because that would require them to face up to some extremely inconvenient figures about customer satisfaction and community engagement.
Thanks mate, will take you up on that I think. The only thing that's dissuaded me from doing it before was the grandiose notion that if it did get picked up in the media, that would maybe land a few bods at CA in hot water. But if they're not even going to deign to acknowledge these numbers and come out with an even more egregious bit of cut content DLC than last time, then... em, frankly!
Anyone else who would like to help get this out into the public arena via social media or just ol fashioned media, all the numbers you need are right here

Hopefully the message will get through before their release schedule for Warhammer is set in stone.
