And name one company that has not "finagled" sub numbers for their MMO.

Even Blizzard did it / do it.

Hell, GW2 is not even out yet, and they felt the need to stretch the truth about beta sign ups and the length of time it took to get them ;P

wow... are you really going to compare a finished product (SWTOR) with an unfinished one (GW2)? A little desperate aren't we?

Well... It's not that hard to compare GW2 with SWTOR regarding the level of polishness... GW2 is already more polished and ready for release than SWOTR will ever be :D :D The truth..

carefull with statements like this ... Play the game for a month and then come back here say it's polished.

 

The videos and commentary alone tell me its more polished than TOR.

I do believe that GW2 (still in development) is more polished that TOR. It truly is a shame how much EA and Bioware have dropped the ball with TOR, its almost incomprehensible

Dropped the cash as well...

*voice actors* *brbblbrb*

Gw2 has been top hyped game for 2 years now. But that hype is not as blind as some people might think. Everything Arenanet promised is in the game and players had a chance to experience it by themself. Gw2 didn't build hype by releasing some expensive CGI cinematics like some other mmos did.

This,no CGI BS vids,just raw game play vids.

I cannot wait for GW2. I don't expect it to save the genre, I just expect it to be fantastic, like GW1.

Agreed. GW2 is not the mmo messiah, but it is a very large step in the right direction. See ya'll in the Mists! :-)

You better hope I don't see you there first! :-P

Funny thing is we'll probably end up in the same server and not even know it haha

I dont care for Swtor it bored me fast, however I know EA very well. They one of the most curropt gamming corpirations out there.

Hell they was even voted the worst corpiration in the usa.(which I dont agree with, there is a lot worse out there)

However unlike them ArenaNet have a good rep, since they made gw1. Theyve kept all there promise, they never show anything unless it. Already in the game and even for holidays they go out of there way to make new major content just for that holiday. 

ArenaNet have a good past, unlike EA.

Uh and you say way before, that if EA lied that would be considering as a lie and so they would get in trouble for Fraud.

Which is not true, Corpirations in the usa is consider a person. So tehy have the rights of one, and so they have free speech.

It was not that long ago, when a news corpiration(not saying it name, because it does not matter to this con) was tooking to court for doing false stories, and it was thrown out. Because they had the right to free speech and so they was allowed to say false things in there news.

Lastly can you plz tell me, where you get the info about how gw2 lied about how many beta sign up they had.

However I know it was open for only 48hrs, because I was there at the time watching.

Byrhofen, you got an answer for this?

I'm sorry, but first what does Byrhofen means. Secondly of course I dont have a answer, thats why I was asking. The guy said ArenaNet change/lied about how many beta sign up they had.

So I was asking where the proof.

...and most people who have played it agree / can't wait to play it again. You know a game is going to be good when it not only captures you like that, but makes it nearly impossible for you to play anything else, when it's not even released yet.

This is really EVERYTHING.  Even if people aren't immediately blown totally away, this game is going to keep them coming back from the other, lesser games around.  I think it's the lack of competition that will make GW2 seem like it exceeded everyone's expectations.  People clearly are hoping GW2 will be good (which is what some call hype), but what constitutes "hope" right now is desperately low.  Anything that presents a polished, complete experience is going to seem like a miracle.  And I have no doubt that ANet is delivering that. 

On top of that, though, are 2 more key ingredients.  1)  I suspect the game as a whole is a lot bigger overall than people think.  and 2) People will be amazed by how involved the dev team will be post launch and the continuous stream of coolness that flows out of Bellevue.  Once they no longer have to focus entirely on the initial launch, I think they'll start to get a little crazy with the innovations on top of their basic framework.

This is just the beginning.
