Any game with Daniel Erickson as a lead Dev, hell no. This guy is completely out of touch with his player base and current state of the game. BW, so long old friend. EA, you still suck. Erickson, you are a joke.

Fixed that for ya

I was an Alpha tester for AO and I still have the original CD. Secret World looks like AO2 to me and I will definitely be cautious. Back in the Alpha testing they thought my idea of adding fallen trees, foilage etc was epically creative... I /facepalmed. True story.

I gave up on the CoD series as soon as they started porting the console game over to the PC instead of making a PC version. Then they axed dedicated servers and player made maps the way ToR did to Illum.... Vote with your $$$, it is the only thing they understand.

ToR feels like a single player game on my server. I was scrolling through the list of servers game wide and 90% of them seem to be headed down the same path as mine - dying. Yes, even the PvE servers are dying, wonder why.....

If you think there is 1.3 million subs RIGHT NOW in NA, you are on some serious stuff....

Look in my sig. It is a /facepalm moment.

Star Fail...... Because there is no WAR.

Can't be smoking anything when they have their heads buried in the sand.... GL BW

Here is what I got out of the Podcast: 1.3 is going to be rather lacking, but hey, look forward to 1.4, just keep that Sub going, kthxbai.

Raided in vanilla WoW. It got stale and I will not do it again. Call me casual, but I don't log in to work a 2nd job, I want to have fun and raiding is not for me.

They looked at WoW's business/game model and said "Hey, we can milk millions of subs and all we need to do is teired grind-a-thon content!!!" Hell, they even gave you companions you need to gear out now instead of just your own set(s). Everything they have implemented is all about "GRINDING" because it worked for WoW.

Umm, no you won't unless you want to pay for it. The 'FREE' transfers will be off of dead servers to a select few most likely. Those select few will not be heavy populated. I tried rerolling on Fatman and gave up when I saw 45min Q times, screw that. My character is still stuck at lvl 6.

AC, now those were the days!! Now we get stale MMO title after MMO title of grind-a-thon. Notice how the MMO community went to crap as the need for repetitive gear grinding got worse?

Why do you think BW/EA gave up a free month? You and I both know the sole purpose was to pad the numbers until Q2-Q3 numbers are released. I would bet they lost 1/2 of their subs from initial sales numbers. I think there are more servers like mine:http://www.torstatus.net/mind-trick/trends/7d#!/kinrath-spider/trends/60d Than they care to admit. This game has brought nothing innovative to the genre, not a damn thing.
