There seems to be an absolute ton of hype articles in MMORPG.com features section abut TSW atm. So the games launch can't be Xmas this year as I was predicting, or they are hyping it up way too much, too early?

Any ideas?

Players come for the game, but they stay for the people- Most Devs have forgotten this.

 You were predicting this launch would be Christmas. Really? Well, you were way off.

1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical.

2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself.

3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose.

Click on GAME LIST, click on THE SECRET WORLD, read RELEASE DATE, no need to make a forum post.

We shouldn't be so hard on the OP.  Not everyone follows every game and every site all the time.

yea but someone with that many posts obviously hangs around these froums a decent amount to know what big games are coming out and when :P

lmao that actually made me crack up in rl, anyways I didn't know about it till today either. I assumed later this year as well, then randomly got a email invite to join beta since I played AoC I am assuming. Downloaded it all day and just hopped in, pretty fun actually though the no world pvp thing is probably a no go for me. It is however very different from most games I have played(at least in the tutorial area) which gives it a giant plus. I will give it a shot over the next few days and try to make it into pvp, but I don't have the money anyways atm to shell out $50 if I do like it. Though down the line I am currently planning to purchase it, if only to go through the pve once.

No, i wouldnt really badger the OP for his statements.  TSW was suppose to be out Dec'11, they then (without overhyping it prior) moved the launch date back untill May (i think it was may)  and then again untill July.

I think Funcom is really nervous about a syle of launch that has become synonymous with the word Funcom.  Honestly if they need to i would say push it back as much as needed, people dont have the tolerance for bad launches anymore, its "competition" has no set release date yet, and people are going to be looking at this games launch under a microscope, and minor issues is going to be an "ahh haa!" moment for people waiting to dubb this the developers 3rd "worst launch ever"

 

My guess is the OP hasnt been following the game and then stopped by here and made that statement with the info he had, which was outdated.

It would have made much more sense if he had written the thread title " Is TSW out yet?"

I was in a coma guys!

But then I try not to follow the hype build up, so I tend to not keep up with the news. In fact a mate said it was coming out soon and I told him it was only the beta. :)

Well I will now wait until the game launches and see how the reviews go.
