Eledra Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 It's how the world works junior.. Get used to it.. the electricity goes out.. you still pay.. your phone goes out .. you still pay.. Complain all you want, but in the end you still want the services so you still pay.. Except electricity and phone lines are more reliable than this game, by light years...

Totenleider Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) Yeh, well, complain, complain-- I doubt if Bioware cares because we're addicted and will log in as soon as the servers are up again (and will continue to give Bioware our $15 per month). WoW used to go down for days at a time- everyone complained but no one quit Edited April 13, 2012 by Totenleider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knightfell Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 The return was not in monetary. It was entertainment, building towards future gameplay, more entertainment. An investment doesn't have to pay dividends. Try again. I don't need to try, you are just continuing to prove your frivalty and lack of sensitivity by debating investing time in a GAME..

Azmodios Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 The number one priority of an online game should be to stay online. Those of you who have endless time at your disposal can be patient if you want. However, those of us who sacrificed time specifically to play today have a legitimate reason to be dissapointed. Additionally, people who do shoddy work should always be held accountable for it. Otherwise they continue to do shoddy work. So for those that want everyone to stop complaining and be patient, don't worry. If you are patient the complaints, one way or another, will go away. Personally I have had three occasions I needed support and was dissapointed every single time. The server I play on is virtually dead with no crafters and no public economy. Their "free-time" offers always come with strings attached and my attitude twoards Bioware has gone from revered to appalled in only a 5 month span. The one saving grace was that I could play the game when I wanted to play the game and that I felt the actual programmers and game designers were doing a decent job considering the scope of it all. Now that is not even the case. With a lifetime subscription to STO and an itching to play some WoW again, I really do hope they get things straight soon. Cause I only do one mmo at a time and I was content with this one as long as I could play when I wanted to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikalonius Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Not only did they roll back the servers 'accidentally', but they needed their players to tell them about the issue. Not one dev could be bothered to log in after the patch was deployed but before the servers went back to being visible to the public? It should have taken just one dev five minutes (and I'm being generous here) to figure out something went majorly wrong with the patch. The devs are in way over their heads. Some of the issues in this game are things you expect from CompSci undergrads (example: diplomacy bug...not understanding how floats work). Lucky for them they have an army of loyal fanboys/fangirls who'll argue that "every MMO is like this" and "Vanilla WoW had issues too". Apparently, MMO development is the one field where it's acceptable to never learn from any mistakes, whether they be your own or ones made by other games seven years ago. Forget that in that time there have been some big advances in development and testing paradigms that when used properly could have prevented many, many of the issues we've seen.

bigbramble Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Bugs are gonna happen, not an issue. Frustrating as I am really keen to be playing but that's life. I still have major issue with the maintenance always happening right in the middle of the day here in Europe, it's just very poor. Why not alternate so the colonists get a maintenance in the middle of the day every other time too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kolanthel Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 In the grand scheme of things, you pay $15/month to play, which breaks down to roughly $0.50/day, which most ppl waste 10x that much every day buying a lunch that is left mostly un-ate in a trash bin somewhere, or on other things that are unnecessary to life, just wanted on a spur of the moment impulse decision to buy. You poor befuddled idiots who complain about the loss of $0.50 and spend almost as much time complaining in here, as you do 'Ruling the Known Universe" from your "CommandCenter", located in your parents basements, and operated off boot-legged internet connections because your afraid you will be tracked down for your extensive collection of "conspiracy" theories about how game-designers are all in collusion to screw you over.
