RiP_AzaZeL Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 The MMO community pre-wow did. I know I'm beating a dead horse by saying that, but just saying. no you're right, and i think unless a game comes out that has as many basic and key features that wow does, it seems nothing will compete with it. This could be the big problem with most mmo's, you cant release products that are inferior to something thats been around. i understand that's easier said than done, but thats the reality of it.

SirRobin Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 When did you realize tihs game was doomed? August 8th, 2010, with the Space Combat leak. That they could actually think that a single-player rail-shooter mini-game was the best option for space content in a pay-to-play Star Wars MMORPG, made it pretty obvious that they didn't "get it." Boredom brought me back, but I could already see the writing on the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phenyr Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I think it'll be interesting to see what people say about when they first realized that this game was headed in the wrong direction. for me, it was when i first started playing and tried a warzone... I quickly found out that there was no bracketing and they had expertise. At that moment i realized that Bioware had no idea what they were doing and this game wouldnt make it the year. EDIT FOR NOTE TO POSTERS: please only respond if you are a logical person and can see this game will never meet expectations. if you think that just becuase "you are enjoying the game" means that everything is fine, then this is not the thread for you. Many things but most important the performance overall of the game, and thats lack of quality of the product speaking. And as mmorpg it was released prematurely, and lets just face it was inevitable the f2p model. And sadly but true the road to p2w model has been set.

Andryah Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 (edited) EDIT FOR NOTE TO POSTERS: please only respond if you are a logical person and can see this game will never meet expectations. if you think that just becuase "you are enjoying the game" means that everything is fine, then this is not the thread for you. 1) "expectations" are different for different people. You do not control the definition or use of the word. 2) number 1 above invaldiates your entire NOTE TO POSTERS. 3) you do not have the power to censor viewpoints, not even with a red update note. Why are you here? Seriously, why are you here? In your world view, game is doomed. Why are you hanging out in the forum of a doomed game?? FYI... I still like the game, and I don't think it is doomed. It's evolving, which I know some people think means doom.

paltrysum Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Shortly after leveling my first character to 50 and realizing how unfulfilling the post-50 experience was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ousooner Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I knew it was going south when people started wondering why x feature of y feature wasn't in at launch. People wanted this game to release with as much content was wow has now, it didn't people complained, mass exodus, bad word of mouth..... etc.....

However I didn't expect it to fail so fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
