GW2 sells about 32:1 tsw every week.

Where did you get that stat from?

 

TSWs subscriptions are up 400% since went B2P. They have over 300,000 active subscriptions + however many non-subscribers they have. Thats a lot of active players.

a one time bump from 55K active to 300K, and it fell again. thanks for playing though. they do not, and never had 300k subs. they sold just over 300k boxes.

sine there will never be a reason given to the reflexive bashing of gw2 when anyone makes any complaint about tsw, get back to the topic and do your best to ignore what i said.

isnt tsw 30$ buy to play (no sub)if so?this is probably the reason arenanet(gw2)has a special for digital copy of gw2 (30% less)so instead of 60 (or whatever their price was online)it is 42$ now.it is still hard to justify gw2 when gamer get a good value like tsw same no sub like gw2 and all for 30$!also tera is there on the f2p side!game industry is getting very competitive these day ,all fair game too from what the twitch community play!

hard for who? GW2 sells about 32:1 tsw every week. more in some places. why does -every- topic with a complaint about TSW turn into some slight  @ GW2?

yea, the p2p brigade beating the chest on tera, tsw, swtor, etc. man's game, adult game ault model, honest business, pay for quality....that went well. and the upcoming batch of p2p's this year will be f2p this time next year.

but hey, keep it up.

People who claim they feel like they are forced to play every day if they sub to game, do they feel the same way about their internet access? Do they enjoy the unlimited access(bandwith throtling not withstanding) the monthly fee provides? Would they prefer a f2p package instead?

daily internet and phone use is part of our lives if you're not in the third world...this is a stupid question. there's no goddamn question about it becauseyou can't do your work or school work or keep in touch with your friends and family without a phone or internet.

@ FlawSGI: Cross Server Dungeon grouping was always possible, cross server play was built into every facet of GW2 besides WvW.

@ everyone else: they're working on one, finally realizing it's a good idea to have a useful group finding tool. no amount of threads and bullshit will speed up the process.

Much like Rift, this game is sounding more and more like World of Warcraft with a slightly different set of instanced features tacked onto it.

Belive it ot not, WoW is not a bad game. 

sure, but copying it wholesales and changing fringe features instead of the fundamental game design is not good. it's guaranteed to bore, no matter how flashy your side dishes are.

yea like how RIFT and SWTOR ddin't hurt feelings....in the first month anyway.

 

Rift is a success story and swtor could have been very easily. Swtor let the men in suits cripple its potential.

lmfao.

...OR...

because for the millionth time a shot caller who use to be at Mythic did what Mythic does best, rehash their old work.

DAoC was pretty much a 3D "clone" of a previous Mythic game called Darkness Falls which was text based. DAOC was DF remade with graphics, likely to ride the EQ fame.

 

stands out in the MMO space in its day but was hardly original. was the laziest type of rehash really. "make this use graphics and ship it".

 

 

Who plays an MMORPG for graphics..?  

Gameplay is what is most important. Graphics should be ebough for the game to be relevant. But with awsome "sets" of armors now in each game (for the time/era) that can turn up the graphics, because everyone looks the same.

Everquest, each of your pieces could be a different color and type of armor... hap-hazard, because that is what you found & scrapped together... not because some dev wanted u to go threw this series of quest, to reward you with "Look at me" armor... that eventually everyone will have. The point was that graphically, EQ illustrated it depth, by having thousands of low quality textures.. that allowed for a mega-diverse populace.

Not today...  everyone is in full sets of equal armor... 

 

 

i was just pointing out that DAoC is not an original game, it was a 3D rehashing of previous Mythic title made likely because EQ was so popular at the time. your speech about EQ(however agreeable) is unnecessary.
