Originally posted by Leucent Oh just stop it already. WoW still has bug fixes and updates, and EVERY MMO will too. And you know how buggy SWG was the first few months? Yet people still loved to play it. If you have a problem with playing a game that will continuously have fixes and patches, go play a boardgame. Otherwise, stop moaning. |

I can't beleive they are having complaints from people who don't like the grinding at lvl 50? Lvl50? WTF the game just came out! If I wanted a game I am going to be done with in two weeks I will buy a single player game, I want my MMO's to last me atleast the summer. Not so nice guy! |

Guys seriously read www.wowwiki.com/Patch_1.1. Youll be surprised theyre still fleshing out classes, and areas. I mean Maruaden horrible dungeon it may be, wasnt added until 3-4 months from US release. Remember Captain Placeholder? Come on cut AOC some slack |

Too little, too late for me. Uninstalled AoC and I'm back playing Lotro until Warhammer or Stargate releases. Keeping an eye on JGE too. Normal launch bugs aside, maybe next time they will release a completed game, and think twice about instancing it down into a single player game with a (quiet) chat window. Maybe they won't over look HUGE bugs and missing features in order to meet a launch date they weren't ready for. I'm at the point in my life where I am sick of getting burned by companies. Talk is cheap, so instead, I stop giving them my money. |

Someone who says other ppl are whiners get called trolls or hater haters which in turn just makes you a hater. this is, of course, the opinions of other ppl. not mine, these were just a couple of things thrown in my face when i stated something very similar. |

All good things headed for AOC and thats a good thing. This is my first time dealing ith Funcom and I think they are doing a pretty good job of cleaning up alot of stuff. I think they tried to be too ambitious with the game, trying to perfect everything. They clearly have good intentions of improving and making the game even better despite some issues at the moment. |

Originally posted by SaintViktor AoC is anything but ambitous. The original design of Star Wars Galaxies, now that was ambitious and one of the reasons they never could balance the game or keep up with it's problems. If anything AoC suffers from a lack of vision. Too much time and effort was wasted on making it a pretty game, instead of a fun game with tons of content. They simply released the game in an unfinished state, and now they are paying the price. I understand some people like this game, but it's hardly an MMO the way it was designed. It plays like a single player game with online elements, including the fact that you can level to 80 very quickly without ever having to group. |

Originally posted by summitus Trust me. These forums are NOTHING compared to the user forums on the AoC web site. I also wish people would stop complaining. While people are certainly entitled to their own opinion, one has to wonder how many posts that complain about the same things are necessary... Jon |

Originally posted by Spellshaper Thank you for stating the obvious. I don't care if you're 12 or if english isn't your native language, atleast make the effort of reading through your post! The spelling mistakes really turned me off from reading through your entire "letter". Also Funcom shouldn't have to apologise for anything. If you were serious about buying this game, then you would have known enough about the game to realise that certain things like Directx10 wouldn't be in the game at launch. HOWEVER! It would have been a lot worse had they said that Directx10 would be in the game, but then decide to never add it. Then my friend, they should apologise. Give them some slack, they are a small team and they are doing what they can. |

Originally posted by MindTriggerThat all depends on what level you are when you decide to do the group quests (yes, they are there). I for one was heavily challenged by the group quests and needed a couple people to come along with me. I am also tired of the "unfinished" comments. By nature, ALL MMO's are unfinished, constantly being changed, tweaked and updated. I've beta tested LOTRO, Warcraft, and MxO, and all of these were buggier than this MMO was at launch (though I think LOTRO, possibly, was slightly smoother). The "unfinished" argument really doesn't hold water for this reason. A better way to phrase it, perhaps, would be "incomplete content promised upon launch" which, in its own right, is a worthy complaint. Jon |

Originally posted by MindTriggerI don't know about paying the price really, everyday I log into the game there are tons of people having a great time and despite some issues they really had a pretty decent launch compared to other mmo games. Nighttime quests are single player only daytime quests you can either solo or group. Though the higher level you are the more grouping is needed such as Sanctum of the Burning Souls dungeon and many other dungeons that are 50+. Too much time and effort was wasted on making it a pretty game, instead of a fun game with tons of content. There is plenty to do in AOC. Problem is that some just glue themselves 24/7 to the pc and rush to level 80, then we have to hear their complaints about not enough content on the forums. |

I would like to suggest that all the whiners do EXACTLY what they say and leave the game. All of you who are threatening to leave...please do so. The rest of us are having a really good time and I'm all for not having to listen to you any more. Thanks for playing. |

In LOTRO beta we were balancing classes far before release. We were polishing up the completed crafting sytem. Even finalizing the initial higher level areas months before it went live. AoC seems to have just hit beta from alpha... That's the feel anyway. And I played beta (err alpha)... |
