Sheep have been led to poisoned water twice now. 

For some unexplicable reason, Funcom stock has went up in anticipation of TSW despite the following facts:

 

a)  Funcom has far less money than it ever did to develop and promote the product;

b)  Funcom is participating in a far more brutal mmo market, right in between SWTOR and GW2 and well, 1000s of social facebook type MMOs from North America and Korea;

c)  Funcom is releasing TSW on a far tighter release schedule with less testing and with less beta feedback.

 

It is going to be a catastrophic failure. 

I dont think any of this is true?  Do you have anything to back this up?

Funcom has had a money surge from age of conan.  Even as a failure it still made then a pretty decent amount of money.

TSW has been in development for years.  And there is nothing say release wont be pushed backed.  Funcom wanted to push back the release of age of conan,  but eidos pushed them to release early.

Rift was able to pull in 100 mil in revenues. I am pretty sure the secret world can equal that.

seems a tad harsh and oddly knit picky

for class quests ,  planet stories and flashpoints the first time through i liked it.  There were too many quests where it was a waste of time however.

a fact is an exact number. This is not factual data, it is investor fluff to pull the declining stock  up before things get worse. Thanks fo rthe read though, it is defininetly panic mode at EA and Bioware when they need to talk numbers this early in the game.

 

Investor expected  5 million + sub sales.... they expected WoW like numbers, anything less was a failure to "an investor"

They are not giving accounts create,  they are not giving forum registrations.  They are giving hard sales numbers.    Right now things do not look that bad.  Things can still change but right now your doom and gloom assassements is just retarded.

Please never go into any industry analytical.

I am still playing but starting to feel the ware.  Basically I want to try the other class quests but really do not feel like grinding through the same worlds over again to do it.

I am out of movies to watch........

Nope. God hates sin, never sinners.

So God has made this very clear that being gay is a sin? is that so?

You have trouble reading or something? God hates SIN and not SINNERs. I.e. he would hate homosexual acts but not homosexuals and yes, I believe homosexual acts is a sin like I believe sex outside of marriage is a sin as well. Does not mean God hates people who have sex outside of marriage.

You know what,  the damn christian screwed it all up with interpretation.  God hit the reboot button and gave us the Koran over a thousand years ago.  Its nice easy and user friendly/.  Heck its the mac of relgious text.  Get with the program already you outdated snuff.

As long as done right who cares,  it shouldnt be an option with every romanceable character but no harm in it being for some and just so long as its not as in your face as Anders :) in DA2.

I do not think it should be hidden away eithier

Do these nerfs also effect PVE?  Cause the Operative is squishy as hell.

Also if bioware did not build in a way to keep their PvP and PvE skill separate it does not bode well for their skills as game designers.  Thats a very basic rule.

I found it lacking even as a single rpg player, the story is no where near as good as mass effect or any other best selling rpg and the combat isn't as slick either. so it fails as an mmo and it also fails as an rpg.

A lot of the class quests equal up.  just sucks you have to grind yourway through them

On another topic  33% revenue vs 13%?

what a waste of money,  basically we are paying a third more then the game is actually worth because of a greedy assed rigged system.

You forget something they started a dream 11years ago of making there own pvp game back in good old norway.

They don't owe anything to anybody there a small indie company with limited resources.

They dont pull a gun to your head that you should play this game or keep following it.

Also game is ruined by player base like hacking cheating macroing and zerging to game to death in first half year also the millions of whines the US players did asking to split server, while everyone knew its a small indie company with limited resources and money. But ohhh noo.. WE WANT OUR SERVER it was in away the death sentence for the game.

If you dont like what AV do stop following the game then leave it, go play something else instead keep whining and crying every god damn day of the week.

Complaining about people complaining about a company while complaining about a company.  Wow  impressive.

Why is lotro out of the running,  seems to blow both games away,

Ok i want to update my motherboard.

I went to the download page and noticed their are tons of downloads?  do i need to download each one and install it or will the laest one cover the old ones.  

Also for the bios they are rom files,  do i have to burn each one to CD and install them separately.,  which would take forever.

DCUO was more fun,  where rifts were kind of neat they were so unenspiringly implemented

Well it turns out my laptop has an SSD slot,  so i plugged it in and my laptop keeps freezing up shortly after launch.  It freezes differently though,  fully locks up.  I did not install anything on the drive or copy anything over.  I take the SSd out and my laptop works fine (at least while i am typing this it is).

Interesting but i do not think it will esclisp wow like he says.  Even if Swtor does everything 10 times better it just wont.  A good 60% of WoW success was timing in a market that is completely different then todays.  Right now there are just just too many things right around the corner.  People will play swtor for 3 months then go to the secret world,  then go to gw2,  and so on and so forth.
