I think it's pretty hilarious that people actually defend this.


'Give it time' That's what people said a year ago on the beta when people voiced their opinion about a customizable UI/High res textures/Combat log/Game breaking bugs.

People should get this into their skull these things have been brought up long before release.

The it's beta, or on release it will be fixed excuse isn't going to fly anymore.
Neither is 'give it time' when Bioware states eumh no ETA guys.



Even now Bioware answers ' No Eta when these awesome (standard) features will be patched'
It's incompetence beyond believe.

You can expect for 55 Euro and a 15 Euro sub to get a game with these features.
Truth is they have barley started on most of these features and it might take another month before they add a combat log.

They just released a beta version for a cash grab no more no less.
EU customer support shows also what their intentions are.
Horrible server location poor maintenance times they had no intention of making a long lasting game.

Pretty sure the give it more time will be 'next expansion Bioware will introduce a combatlog'.

We estimate that it will take us at least 5 more months of internal testing to get it perfect. Or we could release it now in near perfect condition and use the data from millions of subscribers to help squash these bugs. In the end, we'll be done in half the time and you'll get to play the nearly finished produck 6 months earlier, what would you rather we did"

Do you really expect ANYONE on these or any other forums to believe that you would have told us to wait? When you play an MMO at launch, you know(or should if you aren't retarded) that every MMO in history is released as soon as possible and that they are never quite done. Therefore by buying it week one you are agreeing to deal with these bugs until they are gone. It's that simple now stop whining and go play WoW it's virtually bug free.
This. According to sources on the net and not sure how true it is the game cost over a 100 million dollars. At some point they need to start recouping that so that they can fund more development etc. There are some things that irritate the hell out of me in the game. But I understand why they released when they did. The stuf will be fixed patience is required. If you don't like it come back later. Then u have the product you bought finished to ur Liking. .

This thing went into beta in June, not a year ago. Now you are just making stuff up. If you don't like it, feel free to leave. This game has been in development since November 2008 and is the most expensive computer game ever made. So, yeah, they want to start making some money from it. Oh, don't forget all of the gamers that were clamoring for its release and complaining about having to wait so long. I'd like to see you manage the development of a a fully voice acted MMO with the kind of expectations that come along with the Star Wars name. If you don't like it, feel free to leave and never come back.

First off, they said they are going to be working on the UI. Either you believe them, or you don't. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. As to the features that are "meh", care to elaborate?

Voice acting in EQ2...you mean the whole 2% of the game that it applies to? It was done in AoC, too. For the first 20 levels.

name any MMO feature you want and I will show you how its bare-bones compared to other MMORPGs.. I am not going to keep listing features until you are satisfied. I gave you an example and all you did was make excuses for it...
