AnAcuteAngle Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 The reason why TOR is failing right now, is mainly due to the fact that they spent about 95% of their resources on leveling zones and storyline. Alright, maybe that's a bit rough. I'd say 70-80%, but you still get the point. People loved levelling and then hit 50 and also hit the concrete wall of "There's absolutely nothing to do." Particularly in PvP. So... Let's hope they fix this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lugh Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Perhaps, these same people, should do something other than RUSH to the carrot, get as many as they can, and enjoy the ride? Ah no. That's not possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnAcuteAngle Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 Unless you really enjoy it... Then you play it to progress through the gameplay and storyline. Are you suggesting people should play as much so BW has more time do develop an already released game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not possible. Leveling takes a few days of play time at most. Endgame is months of playtime. But yes lets have nice shiney questline then faceroll easy endgame!

Ah no. That's not possible. What is with people like you? You think if someone is higher level then you they had to rush? Seriously get a clue. I have a full time job and real life commitments. I managed to get level 50 in about 20 days. I sure didn't rush either. I levelled mostly through PvP which isn't even the fastest way to level. Most MMOs I have played have this problem heh.

Asharac Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 When WoW came out, they had what? 3 PvP areas, not quite sure. I'd say TOR is doing pretty good for itself, seeing as it just came out a little over a month ago. Just wait a few months or so and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not possible. I like how the solution to the game being bad at 50 is to not play the game. "Come on guys! Why don't you stand around on the fleet for 10 minutes every day and just take it all in. I mean why would you want to play a game? It makes things so much better."

I'd say TOR is doing pretty good for itself, seeing as it just came out a little over a month ago. Just wait a few months or so and see. WoW had no PvP areas. PvP occurred in the open world. Your argument is pretty terrible. WoW is also a 7 year old game on a 10+ year old game engine. People generally expect more from a late model vehicle than something a decade old in terms of standard features. That would be like saying Chevy invented the automobile a little over a month ago and we should not expect any modern equipment. When Ford has been making cars for almost 8 years with all the bells and whistles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolotomasi Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 i'm of the opinion that most mmo fail because mmo player are burnt out. it's the same ppl hoping from one mmo to another. swtor do right thing to grab new player in concentrating on lvling portion. pvp should be improved along the way because balancing is a process.

Bnol Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 These posts are always amusing. The majority of the player-base does not visit the forums, nor are they max level. Most of the players either have just reached 50 or are still on their way. I doubt Bioware is hurting right now for subscriptions, no matter how many quitting posts you see on the forum.

More content will be added though we just have to be patient. 20days so 480 hours; it take about 150-200 hours if you dont skip dialogue. so in fact you played for at least 8 hours a day for 20 day and you say you have commitments.. ya sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facelessred Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 the reason the game is failing is because of people like the OP thinking the game is failing.. in other words the game is fine, don't like it go away, do like it? then keep playing. its as simple as that.

Acindo Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) 20days so 480 hours; it take about 150-200 hours if you dont skip dialogue. so in fact you played for at least 8 hours a day for 20 day and you say you have commitments.. ya sure I was on holiday the first 2 weeks I had the game which surely helped as that was at least 11 hours a day freed up with no work or travel. I also skip all dialogue apart from Story. Sometimes I skip that to. I play this for PvP Edited January 27, 2012 by Acindo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darshk Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 New MMOs tend to get a lot of hate centered on them because 1-People don't like change 2-MMOs take friends away from their old favourites SWTOR has a lot of issues but I have seen none of those discussed. all I've seen is people complaining about minor issues such as balance.

xJeTsTaRx Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) The flashpoints are fun, the hardmodes are challenging and the pvp is great on my server. I am clueless as to why people are complaining and quitting... edit: Not to mention 1 month into it and you already have a fresh new flashpoint.. which i still havent done..

Darshk Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) Unless the game completely flops in the next year or so then most of the hate, apprehension and hostility will probably fade away.

AnthonyLeo Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Make another character. Its what a lot of people I know who hit 50 do. They'll go make a character on the opposite faction or try out another class on the same faction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
