LMAO thats some wishfull thinking.

I will admit they are taking a step in the right direction though, Godager leaving had to happen before any hopes of AoC getting better. As far as old players coming back dont hold your breath on alot of them.

My clan and two others we are allied with have gone to Warhmmer and only 6-8 of them have any concern for AoC. The 100+ others have no intention of ever going back to AoC no matter what Funcom does.

I personally wouldnt go back if they reimbursed me for the alpha they sold me and payed me monthly to play it.

Although I appreciate your enthusiasm, I...hm well...

calm down son, calm down.

Unless Funcom changes the way they conduct their company, I'll not be returning regardless of what they patch in.  As far as I'm concerned, they have zero credibility with me, and it'll take a lot more than talk and promises to earn me back as a customer.

1 When was AoC ever on top to begin with, it has been garbage since day one. 2 Your list is really really long on things that are coming to save the wonderful aoc... 3 is 90% of this jumbled up paragraph of your will never come to pass. 4 people don't like aoc 5 some do but not a majority 6 aoc sucks ass.

You are delusional. The game director has been replaced but they still have hardly any talent to pull from; it's not like Funcom employees are exactly known for being the best in the industry... most of them have very little experience.

Actually you are completely wrong Funcom has a lot of money still and now has over 320 employees and because of this they have a large pool of resources to draw from and even can pull from The Secret World for brief periods of time to get AoC back to 700,000 subscribers again and once they hit profit and turn the corner the stock will go up from 8 to 20+ very fast which isnt the highest but would mean people will still have made money from its initial offering and considering the state of the world economy that ain't bad!

Wait fir it... wait for it... wait for it...

Slow down, Spongebob.  FC has a long, long way to go to correct the AoC mess.  Craig Morrison is probably a good step in the right direction, but this game has so many design flaws and breaks, it'll take a long time before they are able to make it a good MMO.

Agreed.  A name changed doesn't fix everything over-night.  Come June to this time next year, I will revisit AoC and expect it to be in the shape in should have been at launch.  Saying that, I will not resubscribe to give the resources to fix something that should have been done in before launch anyway.  I refuse to pay for beta.

I just reported these posts since the tiles are written in caps.  Most forums are banning ppl and closing topics where the titles are written in caps.  Obviously this is not the case here and specially not if its a fanboy talking.

You know an aweful lot of stats about funcom, and your name.....got viral marketing?

The OP's name answers this question, only an employee of Funcom fearing for the loss of his job would use a name like that.

If you had added "the AoC gameworld will be rebuilt to be a vast, (virtually) seamless world without instancing of public zones" you would have lifted my spirit, my friend.

Sadly that is not going to happen I'm afraid.

This is a joke right? Well it made me laugh so I guess it is.

Oh and No 2 is pure win. I am sure you are going to follow up on your prediction by buying 100k$ of stock.

Is there a way to get rid of this guy out of forms? Since the day 1 he joined this forms, he is filling it with nothing but useless information he made up. I put him on block, but the form he started still pops up on my list :(

Ive read many reports and talked to many people and they all say that Funcom is just being affected by the problems in the world like the US banks faltering and therefore once things bounce back (its like a ying-yang thing) Funcom will rebound too people are just naturally scared to invest right now.  I would love to invest in Funcom but I dont know how their stock market is in Norway does anyone know of a stock broker company that allows you to buy Norwegian stocks that would be much appreciated thanks.
