  • fatears said: Why? Why Funcom? For the love of all things Holy, why?  It perplexes me to this day. They had a sure fire hit on their hands and a mountain of good will from their fans.  Gaute's mismanagement seems like the most obvious sc…
  • lahnmir said: Wow, some of you people..... You actually wish it upon somebody else to be unemployed or 'Flip burgers at Mc Donalds' with all the consequences for him/her and their family over a stupid videogame? What is wrong with you, no reall…
  • 13lake said: AoC had the best raids ,  Do you mean now?  Even a year after launch it was all tank and spank bullcrap and the gear progression was awful and broken.
  • Deekins said: octa said: Truly, I get physically sick in my stomach thinking back to that launch day 7 years ago.  We were lied to, manipulated, and taken advantage of.  They almost got away with it.  May seriously want to consi…
  • Po_gg said: But... just think about it, if they'll close, you won't be able to post the annual "x+1 years and this abomination is still alive" thread... The anniversary of that debacle always weighs heavy on me.  I can only hope that t…
  • Quazal.A said: either way i live in the hope that if someone does buy them out, will they buy them out for the games, and if so then you would then hope they would want them to make a profit from it, thus put in some development time, how knows…
  • Originally posted by Lissyl I totally understand how betrayed some of you must have felt.  I'm glad that it wasn't all pvp by the time I played, but WOW what a switch after Tortage.  It was like nothing I had ever seen, and not in a good way.  I sti…
  • Originally posted by Creslin321 I think that the OP and anyone who agrees with his post need to go rent "Hotel Rwanda" and "12 Years a Slave" right now to hopefully put their problems in perspective lol . Whether it be a grain of sand or a rock, i…
  • Hey Suzie, I don't think make-or-break means what you think it means.
  • I heard about guilds (outfits) rping within their guild chat and forums and stuff but I never saw any of it in public... nor would I want to :P
    in RP Community? Comment by octa July 2012
  • No.  I haven't seen any mention of it in the forums or official site since the E3 press.  The functionality is definitely not on the test server.
  • Originally posted by VitaminK 1) PAX videos really only showed the PvP. And your comparison to Unreal deathmatch is not too far off imo. Its still in its early stages so things will change. 2) Right now its not too in depth as far as how you get t…
  • With Funcom's track record I don't expect them to address any of these issues timely or efficiently.  Hopefully they prove me wrong because two horrible launches should have taught them more than enough lessons.  I also feel betas are being treated…
  • Hi, thanks for opening up the topic. * The PAX videos, at first glance, just seemed like Unreal deathmatch.  Any credence to that? * How much avatar customization is available? * What's the point of the PvE?  Loot? Faction benefits? * …

  • Originally posted by CujoSWAoA Not antagonizing here, so don't freak out on me.... What did they lie about and what did they steal again? Just curious.   The short list: 1. Blood money 2. Unit formations 3. Mounted combat 4. Siege warfar…
