What Does it All Mean? John Stumme Discusses War in Kryta Survey Results
http://www.arena.net/blog/what-does-...survey-results
The results are in! More than 10,000 people responded to our War in Kryta survey, and we’d like to share not only the results with you – but also how the information we received is going to impact things moving forward, when we take Guild Wars Beyond into the realm of Cantha.
But first, allow me to take a moment to say a big thanks to everyone that took the time to respond. We hope you’ll join us again for more surveys in the future. Now on to the details!
.........
Q: How would you feel about having a party that you could fill with Heroes?
Our final category proves to be another big positive—50.7% of people say that they “love it,” while 14.4% are between that and “OK,” which comes in at 23.1%. Only 5.7% “hate it like burning,” while the final 6.1% were seemingly indifferent. You can look forward to filling out your party with Heroes as another feature of the free update build that will include Embark Beach.

UW/FoW. I've never really done them for a couple of reasons. A full hero team would fix many of them.
go cubs
and embark beach...go to any mission outpost that you have from there...im happy with that. No having to kick heroes to go to LA or kamadan if we can have 7 heroes. Yay!
Some cool stuff thats gonna b added.
Probably gonna be some sick builds that are gonna come out for this lol but im pretty excited.

I'd probably do dungeons and DoA, just for fun.
3 necro heroes, 2 mesmers and a smiter or spirit spammer ftw?
Hopefully the upcoming Dervish buff will make Dervish heroes viable too ^^

DoA all the way.

Really stoked about this and Embark Reach! What a great idea to have one outpost to do all missions that you are eligible to do to leave from! This will make it a lot easier for Mission Runners as well. I am going to do UW and FoW with heroes for sure now that I dont have to wait for a party!
ahem.
DoA and pretty much every elite mission. Yay! 
Verene
Might actually attempt FoW and DoA, and do UW again. And probably try some more missions on HM. And HM dungeons...etc.
This will make finishing vanquishing a lot easier too

I plan on doing Underworld.
But only if my heros have at least 50 stones each.

Wait...
What?! I really need to get off my butt and start playing more. Looks like more and more cool stuff is coming in!

I've been supporting full hero parties for about as long as the idea has been around, so this is great news for me. Yet I'm even more excited about Embark Beach, which sounds like a convenient way to ask/provide help whenever you want to. This could improve the PUG experience immensely. 
As for what I will do with my full hero party, I guess the new GWB content and random stuff mostly.

Every Elite area for sure!! This is going to be so much fun. And looking to find the best combination of Heroes and builds possible.=p
agrios
I'll be doing things like....everything !
7 Heroes will be really, really awesome!!
ANet just made me a happier person today !
I'm thinking about buying costumes just to show my gratitude!

Zaishen daily and some kurzick faction vanq.
Edit: for deep & urgoz u'll still need a partner

I don't get why people are so excited about 1 player + 7 heroes it's the tuned down version of 2 players + 6 heroes (which is more fun imo). And don't tell me it's that hard to find 1 friend/guildy/random to play together. Well maybe for vanquishing but then again that is pretty easy to do with 3 heroes and 4 hench so no real difference here...
Xenomortis
Everything.
Every mission (H/H anyway), every dungeon (H/H anyway), every quest (H/H anyway).
Perhaps the UW and DoA will give me pause for thought, but I'll try them anyway (doubtful on the UW though).

Would you mind posting the link to John Stumme's blog here? Thanks

I will finally be able to finish the final wik mission without having alesia and such dying on the first hit, YES!!!!
MithranArkanere
If I don't find a team for FoW anytime soon, that's what I'll try. I made pretty much everything else.
shoesbags
If it really happens, areas I've never been to before. I'm a pretty solo-orientated player, so stepping foot in the UW for the first time, or FoW would be a whole new experience for me
It'd also encourage me to create more characters, and finish WiK on others that I know I wouldn't be able to complete on otherwise. And the upcoming Cantha content!

3 legendary guardians and vanquishers ... and now they add extra heroes. pro timing!
Shadow Dragon
wow! i'll actually attempt to clean out DoA now. and not just selectively like i had to in the past.
AngelWJedi
i can do elite missions ive been putting of on my war. and do WiK without having to wait days for help. xD and this will make urgoz/deep/uw/fow easer for me and my guild. no more waiting a hour for someone to be ready to do the elite areas. and this embark beach sounds interesting too.
Charlie Dayman
Huh, weird timing. I was decking out some of my spare heroes last night, wondering when or if they'd add this option. All I can say is: awwwwriiiighhht
I'm definitely going to be dusting off my other characters now!

I'll be trying UW since I have yet to actaully get through 4 horsemen.

No missions, I like doing those with players. VQs are a different matter: can't wait for full hero parties for those. Whoohoo!
Embark Beach is an awesome idea. One central outpost for LFGing for missions is just what the game needs when there's so many places for players to be spread out around. Kudos to whoever came up with that one.
Hope the blog goes back up soon, I want to read more before I go to bed. Q.Q

Pretty cool concept imo. Too bad its coming 60+ months after GW release.
Ive already done everything for the most part. (9 legendary guardians)
One things for sure, it will make the below average players have an easier time acquiring titles which i dont object to at all.

7 heroes would be good to complete DoA solo. However, I'm much more interested in Halloween and PvP changes.

Man I'm so not happy with this update.. Mission Runners won't have any work left I guess :'(

UW and DoA definitely. I can see discord-spiritway combination working great. Say hello to a whole new realm of hero team builds. The possibilites are endless

As if H/H wasn't autopilot enough, you can now run three necromancers, two ritualists, and two paragons with just about whatever bar you'd like. Look out for stuff with names like "Imbaway" to hit PvX soon after this update is released.
For Embark Beach, this is probably going to be big. Like, big big. Since the potential audience is pretty much anyone who wants to play the game at all, I see this as pulling in a huge crowd from traders, and potentially overthrowing Spamadan as the mecca of markets. Knowing where everyone is for doing missions, vanquishing, and even some quests is extremely useful. It's almost like a global Party Search, but not quite. This solution is much simpler in some senses.
inb4 someone puts a thread in Sardelac for 8-man Hero Battles.

Eh..
Guess this had to be done due to GW2 being around the corner. Still, playing with people is far more entertaining.
