Originally posted by MosesZD I attempted three separate times to get into AoC. At launch, which was a disaster. About 6 months after, which wasn't much better, and about 3 months ago. The last stint was my longest. It lasted about two weeks before I unistalled. The combat is pretty cool, and the environments looks pretty nice. But it's not a very fun game at all. So no...not everyone who thinks it's not a great game is "butthurt" about the poor launch, Azmodai. Some of use have given the game a few shots. It's just kinda...bleh. As for The Secret World, I'm going to expect the worst because it's Funcom, and hope for the best. It's definitely an intriquing game. But I'll probably wait for the reviews before I decide whether to jump in. I'll be keeping an eye on it, though. |

Originally posted by MosesZD only its not really,. EA are just a distribution partner, Funcom are still the producers. This is simmilar to the deal EA used to have with Valve, Valve did the downloads, EA put boxes on shelves. YES VALVE of all people. |

I'm following it. Highly doubt I will pick it up at launch because regardless how some want to justify it or talk about how AoC is now that game was simply a mess at launch. So not real keen on jumping on board again until I see how things pan out. Does the AOC launch mean this will go the same way? No...but it was so awful that I'll let others test the waters first before I jump in. Not completely writing the game off though either. Seems to have a lot of potential and interesting concepts going on for it. We'll see... 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. |

Originally posted by Pocahinha Well lots of people, me included tought that when Bioware was making a MMO that was going to be the most polished game to relase ever!!! Bioware has a good trackrecord with their singleplayer games, but SWTOR is far from polished and got their fair share of bugs and lack of endgame content. I just hope Funcom has learned from the development and launch of AoC. A MMORPG only got one chance for a successfull launch. And that can make or brake the games future. Hauken Stormchaser |

im ok with funcom as long as they learn from past mistakes. Where i see the real problem is EA + subscription + cash shop + rumored RMT "in peace, in sleep under the barren, abandoned soil"

Originally posted by Zlayer77 I don't think I have ever seen a mmo with zero bugs...WoW still has things that are messed up, EQ1 does...Everytime their is a patch in a mmo, something goes a little wacky.... As long as its fun, I don't care. I await your infinite time to find a mmo without one bug.

Moved thread to the TSW forum. If you guys want to discuss Funcom, there is a stickied thread for that in this forum. Remember that this sort of posting: "Funcom sucks" "Failcom" etc is potentially inflammatory, so try to add some substance. :) /mod peek To give feedback on moderation, contact community@mmorpg.com |

Originally posted by Souldrainer To be fair, as a Barbarian rolling through Cimmeria it felt almost right. Shame most of it didn't. ___________ I had my fair share of fun with AoC, mostly with the open world PvP and 3 to 4 way big guild fights every single night. I know there's a 3 way battleground in TSW but i doubt it will have the same appeal as the randomness to open world with not knowing how many re-inforcements any one side would have incoming, multiple guilds banding together to take one side off a vantage point then turning on one another to take control of it etc etc. Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them. |

Originally posted by Kabaal Funcom talked about the design of the Warzones, and as I understood it they were trying to get the 100v100v100 battles split up by having multiple key points of interest. If they succed in this you will probably have a battle that goes in waves around different points as people move between them to help out or try to take a point of interest. Since it's three factions I think the battle is going to be very back-and-forth, with little advantage in clumping up since you then will probably get hammered by the two other factions. ;) Regarding AoC I had plenty of good times playing my Bear Shaman, mostly in PvE while leveling and doing some awesome Raids. I was teh suck at PvP, mostly because there are so many hotkeys necessary (4 movement+6attack directions+6spells+8combos=24+ hotkeys). I am looking forward to 4movement+7active skills = 11 hotkeys for TSW. :) |
