    Apparently  you don't read what others post here, well you can go ahead and order it from Amazon and be ripped off by them since NCsoft never annouced a release date. You should go and find some solid info on official website instead of some fake ones.

    How am I going to get ripped off if they don't charge me a dime until the product ships? In fact it would be against the law to charge my credit card until they actually have the product and ship it else it would be known as credit card fraud. I also don't have to put a deposit down unlike brick and mortar stores.

• • What Race for Expansion...

  • The big hint dropped by Paul was Skavens way back when before the first delay was issued by Mythic. Things might of change but I don't see why they would not have Skavens as the first race they add into the game post-launch. As to who to pair up against Skavens? Lizard skins is the most obvious of and popular choices which does not invovle "Yet another elf/human race." and which is very iconic and different.

    At the end of the video in this link is where Paul drops the big hint.

If you get hit by someone all they should pay is the amount of damage that happen not 20thousand extra just because you are pissed. All sueing is is you want to waste some of your time going through the court system to earn some extra money you do not really need you selfish bastard. Pay for the damage and that is it. Funcom should pay you for the game price nothing more at the most. quite being babies about it, it is just a game after all.

    That is a stupid opinion....sorry it is. When the Goldmen family sued OJ Simpson did they only care about the money or were they trying to make sure that justice somehow would come their way?

    
    When the families of US citizens killed by terrorists from Algeria sued that country for sponsoring said group of terrorist were they after only money? Suing in itself does not invalidate a legitimate argument or grievance. What about those who were molested by Catholic priests (Of whom were later to be found out that they were protected and sheltered by the Catholic church.) and then sued the Catholic church? Where they only in it for the money? Sometimes suing and attacking the wallets of criminals and organizations which have acted in a criminal fashion if not a negligent manner is the only manner to ensure that punishment is handed out for wrongful acts when the criminal courts have failed to exert proper justice and sentencing.

    If a person wrongfully hurts or kills another person they should be held financially accountable for their actions even if the criminal courts do not hold them accountable. As for suing companies...Sometimes lawsuits are good because they force companies to act and change wrongful polices without resorting to enacting government legislation. for example the McDonalds case posted here. McDonalds would much rather deal with a lawsuit then have to deal with government legislation. At least with a lawsuit they can settle out of court and usually for much less then the initial civil court case is demanding. In fact McDonalds managed only to pay for the medical bills of the woman involved in the infamous coffee case and the cup of coffee that was spilled. Of course they have since changed their own policy around how hot they can serve their coffee to better reflect that of the industry standard. Of course that was done at their own behest in order to stave off further lawsuits but not because of forced government legislation which is something no one wants to deal with at all if government is forced to act.

    As for the OP he would have to prove or his lawyer would have to prove that Funcom acted in a knowingly dishonest manner with the full knowledge that they were not going to offer any of those features he is complaining are missing. Since Funcom is on the record for saying that they would add these missing features later on in the game's life cycle post-launch it would be very difficult to hold them accountable.

    He would also be better served by making his lawsuit into a class action lawsuit which would allow other players to come forward and file a grievance with the courts based on similar complaints. Of course to do that a team of lawyers would have to review his compliant and see if there was even a slight chance of it holding up in court. IMHO I don't think it'll ever get that far mainly though due to the OP's lack of money which is how the system naturally filters out frivolous lawsuits.
