VicSkimmr Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 (edited) At this rate it seems like 1.3 might come before 1.2. Im curious how Bioware intends to keep subs when they keep delaying content? I would suggest releasing patches before everyone leaves the game and my guild falls apart because of lack of content. Additionally some communication from Bioware concerning the release of the patch would be helpful and make people subscribing feel as if the company actually cared about those playing the game (even if they dont). "Constructive criticism is a well-meant critique intended to help someone improve." I feel this standard has been met. You're bashing them for "delaying" content and then in the very next breath asking them to give you a definite release date. And people wonder why we are never given ETA's on content ridiculous Edited April 9, 2012 by VicSkimmr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And people wonder why we are never given ETA's on content ridiculous The original posts were that it would release in march and now its april 9th. They need to give dates in advance and not keep stringing people along, an action that just ticks people off. They should tell people why its delayed and what original date was. Instead they just censor anything they deem out of order including the price is right losing horn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrunkShizzle Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 (edited) and in terms of 1.2 keeping subs id hope it does,but in reality.if you look at the communitys overal attitude of 1.2,there gonna lose more then gain in my opinion and the subs gained,will probably go to the already overclogged high population servers.so it really screws over the people who didnt jump ship and dont wanna roll on other servers Edited April 9, 2012 by CrunkShizzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The turnover for raiders is crazy, content was too easy and now there isnt any new content to keep people interested. BW didnt make the stick long enough so people got the carrot right away...

Dezzi Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 man,i guess they really must think rolling alts is what end game in a mmo is Of course that's what they think! The game is designed to encourage alt-rolling, yet the content you experience is designed to be played only once (linear story). This is where the game seems to disconnect for many--myself included. It's hard to roll alts--which the game wants me to do--when I'm seeing the same content over and over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, plus a giant, neon, flashing CLUE that the Tuesday maintenance will be WEB ONLY (I wonder if they're doing big maintenance so they can announce a long-awaited game update ...).

JerokTalram Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 "According to the International Organization for Standardization ISO 8601 Sunday is the seventh and last day of the week." ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunday I think that is standard enough about 1.2 patch my money is on this thursday Did you intentionally misquote that? The international standard ISO 8601 for Representation of dates and times states that Monday is the first day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiysis Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 "Ohlen: SWTOR, for 2012, we want players to feel like they are getting their moneys worth. Huge changes additions, 1.2 coming next week (slipped, corrected himself). Defiance, will be built around the tvshow and community. Curt: We will change MMOs with ours." I won't feel like I'm getting my money's worth until the server population issues are fixed. I couldn't care less about anything in 1.2 because there's no point in playing a "massive multiplayer" online game when there is no massive or multiplayer. Nothing in 1.2 fixes this so the patch is completely meaningless to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durasturan Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Did you intentionally misquote that? The international standard ISO 8601 for Representation of dates and times states that Monday is the first day of the week. According to the International Organization for Standardization ISO 8601 Sunday is the seventh and last day of the week. And then about three sections later The international standard ISO 8601 for Representation of dates and times states that Monday is the first day of the week. What he quoted was exactly what it said. Note: neither statement conflicts with the other, and both statements can be found within his link, so what exactly is your problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a big deal since one of the most important features in any MMO is char customization. If Bio does screw us over on that promise I have no doubt that they'll lose a lot of subscriptions because many paying customers aint going to put up with being lied to. And they certainly aint going to be happy about having to grind out 1.2 gear for who knows how long so that they can finally customize their char's appearance the way they want it. If 1.2 dos'nt get released before the 19th I'm cancelling my sub until I find out if it's any good. Edited April 10, 2012 by ReddNekk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nmaharg Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 You can't expect a new MMO to have all the features of an 8 year old MMO. Wow has had 8 years to add on to their initial product. Even if SWTOR spent 14 years in development (Duke Nukem anyone), there would still be features that other MMOs have that they wouldn't have had time to include. Just because SWTOR is 8 years newer does not mean it takes less time to write the code. They may be able to purchase libraries to help with features. But unless Blizzard bought the code for a feature from someone else, the code they used is not going to be available to SWTOR. Obviously, you know nothing about game development and should stay silent. Tera has all the features being added in this patch and more. It's also still in beta.
