Huh? I meant most of the SWTOR fanboys are now doing their same schtick with GW2. Not TSW. In fact they're busy trashing TSW. I don't support the bashing of any game for the sake of simply doing so. If they bring up valid points then kudos to them. Yeah, they're pathetic. They all are.
...and I'm well aware there are a few TSW fanboys running around here. But really...does anyone take them remotely serious?
XD
For the record I like TSW and GW2. I'm funny like that. I can actually enjoy more than one game at a time.
1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical.
2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself.
3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose.
I agree.
These vague generic attacks on the GW2 'community', usually by low activity/ low posty count users, are getting beyond a joke.
It's starting to feel like that it's all in a effort to spread negative feeling about anything attached to the game prior to it's launch, professionally or otherwise.
I don't. Really this community brought it upon itself. I don't agree with making a topic about it however. It adds nothing but the ability for flaming and post rage.
Does make the time pass by at work though.

If in 1982 we played with the current mentality, we would have burned down all the pac man games since the red ghost was clearly OP. Instead we just got better at the game.
This thread proves that some people still believe that two wrongs do make one right...
Respect, walk
Are you talkin' to me? Are you talkin' to me?

hehe, well, yeah, there is always that
BTW, i realised one thing by reading these forums a last couple of days...
More negative statements considering GW2 forum are focused on community rather than on game (excluding complaints about the things the game dont have anyway). I dont know why, but this may very well be a good thing...
Forums are forums, "fanboys" and "haters" exists since beginning of internet. It is just the nature of human to have conflicts in opinions.
Main MMO at the moment: Guild Wars 2
Waiting for: Pathfinder Online
One of the best and smartest marketing campaigns I have ever seen. Those guys get it. The way they have utilized the commercial aspect and viral marketing is simply astounding. Should seriously be cited in marketing classes to show how vital viral marketing can be.

I can't comment about LoL, but WoW has indeed a terrible community and we have seen how much worse the game is getting with every expansion. That's because it is literally impossible to get any kind of reliable feedback from the WoW forums and the developers are completely on their own, which is why they make mistake after mistake and some issues haven't been fixed even after 8 years. The same will happen with gw2. The devs will have to improve a game with pretty much no feedback, it's very unlikely they will succeed.
my review of GW2
Really is a shame because when WoW first came out it had a great community. Very helpful and sociable. Over time though I saw with my own eyes how it turned to shit. Was a real travesty to watch transpire.

Yes they've made so many changes to the game during the last year without any player feedback. If there was no feedback then why the game changed so much between BWEs? Another worthless prediction, with lots of facts against it.
Block the trolls, don't answer them, so we can remove the garbage from these forums
Yes but there is one very big difference going on with this game than in others like SWTOR...
ANet already knows the damage fanboys can do which is why they have a CLOSED beta group and are only doing beta weekends for the masses. This allows them to gain actual GOOD information from a set group, and then only have to try to pour through the garbage on set weekends and dig through for decent information from players.
But ANet has at least spoken about many concerns publicly which shows they actually ARE listening.
There is feedback but it's not reliable. Look at this forum for example. Whenever there is a thread with negative feedback / complaints, the fanboys swarm and shit up the thread, defending Anet no matter if the OP is right or wrong.
my review of GW2
Who died and made you Internet Nanny? Your entire post was an insult that came from you flawed premise, your flawed observations, and your flawed conclusions.
And mocking people who still start silly threads like "The Cash Shop is Pay to Win" or "There is NO ENDGAME" or "WoW will Crush GW2 with MoP' are tiresome, silly and pointless. They've also been addressed what feels like a million times, though it's just 'mere thousands..'
Which leaves us with actual, technical flaws (which there are damn few) and other matters of taste of which are merely personal.
You don't need to respond to this poster seridan. I have seen him/her make these types of posts in other threads that are complaining about GW2. He/she swoops in as a voice of reason simply parroting whatever the OP said that was negative as outlined in blue above. Then he/she decides to throw some more fuel on to the fire by making absolute generalizations that attack others and serve no real purpose as seen in yellow above.
After reading here for a while, it's easy to remember the same names when you see them over and over...even if they change their avatar pic.
Diablo 3 also had a closed beta group and we all know how that turned out. The best way to test GW2 would be to have an 1-month long beta test for all pre-purchasers, so people could get to 80 and see the real GW2 and not just the first few levels/zones. It's exactly the same mistake D3 did.
my review of GW2
The only negative threads are: P2W Cashshop, No Endgame so it will fail, No progression so it will fail, No raids so it will fail, etc.
Link me the thread that shows that someone is at least trying to be constructive in their feedback on this site and the fans just trolling the crap out of them.
BOOYAKA!
This is a prime example of a fanboy: Everyone who has different opinions is a "hater".
my review of GW2
They read the thread. They just think it doesn't serve a purpose unless you can actually say what you think can be improved upon. You're basically attacking the fanboys with your thread, you're not even discussing the game.
completely agree. this is shaping up to be one of the worst communities I have ever seen.
LFD tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity.
I am, usually on the sandbox .. more "hardcore" side of things, but I also do just want to have fun. So lighten up already
