Originally posted by Hancakes I find it quite sad actually. Those brainwashed people still, after they've been lied to and treated like idiots for years, defend SV's every stupid move and attack anyone who dare voice a different opinion. Sebastian is right when he says the thread has derailed - but not for the reasons he thinks. MOFO has really turned into some bizarre variant of Stockholm syndrome by now. |

People still play this? Seriously. Don't allow yourself to be treated that way and just quit.

Originally posted by Hancakes Foolish people with money! This is the problem with MO, SV has horrible work ethics but as long as they have players who will keep multiple accounts sub they will continue to produce the minimal progress. They only seem to be motivated to actually progress when there are hard low pop low sub times like now. I noticed the same with Adventurine. No offense but is this a Greek and Swedish thing???? These two companies seem to have absolute horrible work and business ethics. |

That's a mighty large leap of logic of the sort: "I have seen one cup and it was blue. Could it be that all cups are blue?"
We'd find life pretty hard without inductive reasoning, but I think you've set the evidence bar a little too low.

Originally posted by Hancakes Don't get it. Okay I am myself sandbox fan. I really would love to have a game like UO or SWG - of course with many things changed (like awful reliance on macroing cause of how many things were designed). Still continuesly backing up a project that developers proved many times they don't have skills (and propably realisitc coherent vision and resources) to get it done good. Seriously imho better to not play any mmo at all than to play and support game when it's developers practicaly spit you in the face and are totally incompetent. I am all for ambitious people but it seems that SV never were able to pull it of. Really should've started with something less ambitious , learn how to programm things and earn some money. On the other hand it still would not fix their attitue... |

Originally posted by fenistil Its crazy isn't it? I think many of the hardcore followers let their personal feelings for Henrik get in the way of sound judgement. Its like a gaggle of 12-14 years girls at a Justin Bieber concert. |

This game really isn't going anywhere ( backwards maybe ) Problem with the AI ?!?!?! We had that problem in 2010 juli... Buy the "game" and pay subscription...really!? and for what ?! This game is just the perfect description of "epic fail" Keeps me wondering how is SV still alive ?! i mean HOW ?! |

Originally posted by oreal52 Because operating a low profile mmorpg is relatively cheap once it's launched. Say there are still 1.5k subs. Say it costs 13eur/month to balance between EU and US players. To have five developers (what I think the current number is), at a 2300EUR/month salary takes 11500EUR. Rest goes for electric and server bills. They can stay afloat at minimum resources. |

Originally posted by Toferio Ummm what? Starvault has been losing money since release, you seem to be implying they are self sustaining. Based on Starvault last report they need over 1500 new subs to even just even.
Developers for $36000 USD a year, you must be joking. |

Originally posted by Hancakes I am only speculating at how they can stay afloat and pay their staff. Considering the state of the game, I think they are going at minimum wages just to keep it afloat. |

Originally posted by Toferio Once again you seem to be overlooking the fact they arent staying afloat, even after the drastic reductions in staff. Im not sure where the money's coming from, but it isnt from MO. |

Originally posted by Hancakes Henrick's daddy. Where all the money has come from since the beginning of development. When daddy decides it's time for junior to get off his jock and make his own way, this game will be gone and Henrick will be too busy crying to care. EA CEO John Riccitiello's on future microtransactions: "When you are six hours into playing Battlefield and you run out of ammo in your clip, and we ask you for a dollar to reload, you're really not very price sensitive at that point in time...We're not gouging, but we're charging." |
