Gamer 2012-2013 Survey

survey_128x128.png

Hello people out there in web-world.

The New Year has arrived and PawByte and SuperLongName.com are conducting a quick survey among gamers about the gaming industry. The survey shouldn't take longer than 5 minutes and it's results will be published for free for all to see. My hope is that game developers, publishers and inventors will take the results of this survey and take another lens as to what gamers do, want and think.

If you have time and will like to contribute to the glorious gaming industry you can find the Survey here.

Thank you for your time.

Yours truly,

-Nathan

*So far about 150 results*

I submitted.. Though I had to change an answer, because I make games in my free time (so kind of a developer), but when you select that it's assumed you do it as a full time job.

Completed as a 'Gamer' :)

EDIT:

As for the question that implies you're a full-time Developer? That'll be the 'Are you a Developer?' question near the end. If you offer multiple choice such as:

A 'Yes, Full-Time.'

B 'Yes, in my spare time.'

C 'No, but aspire to be.'

D 'No.'

It may help those that fall between the cracks - not to mention it will help to diversify the findings of your research, rather than miss out all the 'aspiring developers' or developers that simply do it as a hobby.

@Anarkii and @TheLegendOfMart

LOL, I took two courses on survey and statistics thought I should apply them.

You made a good point, should I add a new question to distinguish between the two? Plese note, our goal is 500 and we've already reached over 275. That means that the last 200 or so would actually reply to that question...

Right before Christmas season is fully into full fledged.

 

So sorry for the late processing of this survey. Life was quite busy. Please read the blog post entry as well as the ReadMe File. I hope the Summary and Raw Data is of use to you.

Can I suggest putting the results of the survey on that webpage as a html page or pdf?
Having to go offsite to download a zip file with the results seems dodgy and very unprofessional.

I can edit the order of where the links are placed, as we are hosting mirror 2, ourselves. I just wanted to be cheap on bandwidth and kinda hint they should download from box.net. 

 

Also, I can add a plain ole' .pdf option, but the .zip is the full package with the raw data!

This topic is now closed to further replies.

      The problem isn't with Epic, it's with the platform holders like Steam and Nintendo, they should be a lot more strict in their review process.

    • Microsoft updates Visual Studio Code with easier language model discovery and in-app search

      By zikalify · Posted

      Microsoft updates Visual Studio Code with easier language model discovery and in-app search by Paul Hill Microsoft has released Visual Studio Code 1.125, its latest weekly release. This week, the company has focused on discovering and installing extra language models via the Marketplace; searching the web and securely browsing over remote connections without leaving VS Code; choosing how long VS Code waits before installing extension updates; and delivering managed Copilot settings through existing device management tooling. In older versions of VS Code, extensions could contribute their own model providers, but to find these extensions, you needed the right tags to search for in the Extension view. Now, the Language Models editor gives you an Install Model Providers button that opens the Extensions view, which is filtered to extensions that contribute model providers, making it easier to find and install them. Once you install a provider, its model will appear in the model picker. If you use the integrated browser much, you can now look up information without leaving VS Code by typing a query into the integrated browser’s address bar. It will use your configured search engine, the same way a standalone browser does. You can use workbench.browser.searchEngine to pick a search engine. When the browser is opened in a remote workspace, it's now possible to proxy HTTP(S) traffic via the remote connection. This allows you to connect to any ports or services that can only be accessed from the remote machine. If you read our coverage from two weeks ago about VS Code 1.123, you might have seen that extension updates have a two-hour delay as a safety measure. In this update, Microsoft is giving you the ability to configure the time of the delay. You can find it under extensions.autoUpdateDelay. Finally, with this update, admins can deliver managed GitHub Copilot settings through native device management (MDM) channels on Windows and macOS, in addition to account-based enterprise settings files. Settings delivered via MDM appear as policy-enforced in VS Code and can’t be overridden locally. Future updates will extend the supported policy keys across Copilot surfaces. You can download the update from the Visual Studio Code website now.
    • Microsoft will finally let you sign in to Edge with a Google account

      "it opens up new doors for people who prefer using Edge, but cannot be bothered to configure a Microsoft account" You already have a Microsoft account if you are using Windows 11, because you can't set it up without one.
