  • Sweet. Thought i was gonna get flamed for that post. Man i hate biased crap like this. Really casts a shadow on the game for me. Any properly moderated forums you'd reccommend? I've just been using this website as a go-to guide...

    I highly doubt that, unless you can quote them.  Open Beta is essentially a marketing ploy before a game goes live.  Beta is generally only opened up after a game is pretty close to being ready for release, otherwise it can ostracize the potential subscriber base.

    Personally, I think the devs thought the game was close to ready with the zone 3 update, but clearly that's not the case.  These new changes are massive and need to be tested at least a month before open beta begins, IMO.

    TaylorBalbi said it in one of the forum posts himself. I think it was the "So heres what we're doing blog" on the main site. Balance is secondary to getting overworld out. I really don't think they thought the game was ready tbh man. Devs who think the game is ready don't change core features of the game (in this case making the world persistant) Seems to me this idea was in the mill for a while.

• • A question about the forums

  • Can somebody enlighten me as to why these forums seem a bit biased towards certain oppinions regarding AoC? Don't get me wrong, I Loved playing end of open beta. The game totally redeemed itself for me after I lost all faith during the beginning of OB. Miracle Patches do exist. Go figure. So I have every intention of playing AoC. But heres the thing.

    It seems that a lot of the negative posts (even constructive negatism) are being deleted from this forum. Now, thats all well and good if it was just trolls, but it's not. Couple this with restricted access to official forums and this is just pure fuel to the conspiracy that has become Funcoms PR. It looks like they don't want people to get a full picture of the game before they buy. I for one love to hear all possible oppinions on a game before i buy. Now, I'm not saying that FC have a hidden agenda, but i can totally see why some people are goin nuts over this. It is a bit suspicious in all fairness. And MMORPG.com have been known to be very pro-AOC...i dunno. Thoughts. Is this just pure paranoia? Should i lay off the weed?

• • Mature Rating / Immature community???

  • In my experience with MMOs, i have seen that adults are equally as immature as teenagers. Some of the most annoying and immature people i've met are adults. On the flipside, I've met and played with some great teenagers who were great players and a laugh to be around. So I'm cool with Teens playin. If they annoy me I'll just gank em. Same goes for the adults. Thats the beauty of FFA...
