I am Ferrum, that was quoted in the OP. 

I honestly don't appreciate being used against a game I enjoy. I was asking for assistant in finding some more targets in a specific range and my post was supposed to be light hearted..hence the smilies.

I enjoy Earthrise quite a bit, and I play it daily. Just for the record.

No it doesn't. For a start, that thread is 4 days old. And for a lot of people, it has improved a lot. Everyone's PC's/location is different, so its better for some than it is for others. Do you think im just making this shit up? Latency has improved for me, at least cut in half in lag, and im from the UK connecting to the East Coast US.

And lol @ Ferrum's post above me, confirming exactly what i said on Page 2. Pathetic haters gonna hate.

 How does Ferrum's post contradict any point the OP was trying to make? Ferrum is free to like or hate the game.

"I like Earthrise, I can't find any high BR mobs" two completely unrelated sentences.

The Thread you mention might be 4 days old but 1) the poll is ongoing and 2) if you read the latest posts you will find it's pretty indicative of the current state of the game for the majority of the players. Your gameplay experience might be fine noone is gonna argue with that, for most people though it's not fine as per that thread.

 Seriously what a silly post, TW is incoming in March. FYI incase you negated the fact, the game is a sandbox, player driven content!
 
Oh boy, the world is full of douches

For your info... there's currently no sand in the sandbox. That's why people reach this point 9 days after release.
Earthrise in it's current state is nothing else then Quake Deathmatch in a very big map, where there's some mobs added.

We told Masthead on and on again for the last two years, that they need to have lot's of content ontop of the PvP, so that the players have something to do instead of just running around killing each other mindlessly.
Crafting should've been a big part of this content, but they simply failed to deliver there. And don't start talking about the crap they call quests please, whihc are totally useless without the faction-rewards etc.

Masthead plain and simple failed to deliver a game that keeps you playing for more then two weeks.

 Utter rubbish, the game is 1 week old, in its infancy. Players are getting into the crafting mechanic, and folks despite the performance issues are enjoying the game on the whole. Faction battles, and guild fights are rife as the political map begins to take shape.

 

Im guessing your not overly experienced in sandbox games, and probably havnt played the likes of Perpetuum, MO & DF. The first few months are actually despite the issues always the most interesting, politically ingame and development wise.

 

The devs road map is on target and is progressing nicely, we shall see. I believe that in 2/3 months we will be enjoying the best sandbox on the market, many already consider it to be so, however they are looking forward to the TW and the resolution to the performance issues before considerable investment is made. Watch the guilds from the other games flock into the game once the server lag and desync is abolished. If it isnt well, thas another story.

 

In short many believe ER has a fantastic future if the performance issues are resolved!

Wow this is maybe one of the biggest fanboyism posts i've seen on ER.. This game has poor performance and is lacking heavily in content; and just because its a "sandbox" dosn't mean it should be lacking in content.. Trust me, i play EvE, theres plenty to do.. I've played Prepetuum, and it was made by a 10man team, theres still more to do in that game..

This game has no content and failed to deliver.. Most thought this game was vaporware a year ago, i was hopeing it was just because Masthead was waiting to polish the game and release it in a decent shape.. I would've rather them just kept posting 2-3 screen shots and concept art each week until the game was ready to release rather then release it earlie and ruin its chances of gaining any kind of decent population later on.

Glad I stayed away from this game as the warnings signs were all over the place. 

Us sandbox fans sure are going through a bad period... not a good sandbox MMO released since when, Eve was released?

Yeah it has been a while.. I'am keeping my eyes on Xsyon though.. Looks a little rough around the edges but i see potential with more content updates.. I wish i could say the same for Earthrise, but they have a 85man team and can't even hammer out the performance/technical issues.. Xyson is ran by a 2man team and so far has gotten tons of praise and as far as i know has no FPS or performance issues.

 Well all that means, the 2man team with no issues in fps, vs the 85 man team with many....seems to be that perhaps earthrise is using an in house game engin, while Xyson might be some UT or other premade engin.

But yeah, Xyson seems more like a Real Life sim type of game, while earthrise is just no where near launch ready.

Its one of the reasons why Rift is so "polished"...its 3rd party game engin has been getting worked on since DAOC.

lol at Xsyon. Yeah, a great alternative to Earthrise. You might as well go play Second Life if you're looking at Xsyon.

Brb knocking down tree's for hours on end so i can build a stick spear whilst i game next to my window with the real outdoors in perfect view.

I have been having fun in the game actually, the crafting is pretty good there are a couple things like auto stacking that need to be added but i actually enjoyed working hard for the mats and skills and then assemblying everything it was a nice reward for all the work, in terms of content things just need to be fleshed out a bit, one thing i dont like is the random mobs all over the place theres not back story why they are there, for example in eve sansha mobs have a story why they are in that section of

space and the quests around that area divulge their back story even more, in er theres nothing of that, just random mob, they also need to add a couple more mobs now that the server is filling up, they also need to change the look of the armors a bit more they all tend to look the same within the same category, when it comes to server performance, ya its still bad it seems that their server client has somekind of issue where it starts lagging after 5 hours or so and has to be rebooted, it looks like they cant scale out the nodes too much if a area starts filling with players the server just dies, and were talking like less that 50 guys, but the underlying game itself is fun at least i have been having fun,

alot of people complain that the mobs are too easy but they are not different that mobs like in eve for example were u click stay at range and spam missiles, they only recently improved mobs with the sleeper ai and this has been only after several years so ai is hard to do.
